Since 1986 the determination of the sale price of local authority dwellings has been based on the market value of the house. From 1995, as a development of the scheme, specific provision was made for the first time for taking into account the market value of a site provided to the housing authority for a nominal sum. Between July 1973 and 1986 the purchase price of dwellings was based on the original all-in cost, updated to current money values by use of a CSO value-of-money table.
