If one takes the estate where I live, which is up the road from Tyrrelstown, there were 400 affordable houses all built by the council and there are 100 social council tenants all mixed in together. It works perfectly well. It would be no different if the council bought these 100 houses. It would benefit from the mortgages people would pay and it would also have a number of people off its list.
