We revealed last week that nearly 40% of all council flats sold under the Right to Buy in England are now being rented out privately.

Figures released by 91 councils under the Freedom of Information Act show councils sold 127,763 leasehold properties, with 47,994 leaseholders living an another address. This is a strong indication they are being sub-let.

The full data released today reveals that Milton Keynes, Stevenage and Blackpool had the highest percentage of Right to Buy flats re-let, at 69.6%, 65.4% and 64.2% respectively.
