Data on social housing stock and Right-to-Buy sales in the Council area for the period 1980-2021

Epsom and Ewell Borough Council did not have the information requested.

Dear Epsom and Ewell Borough Council,

My name is Nine Spahr and I am a third year PPE student at the University of Warwick. 
As part of a university research scheme in economics, I am studying the evolution of Council's social housing stock. The project is supervised by Thiemo Fetzer, Professor of Economics at the University of Warwick.

I came across the available data on aggregate social housing stock and Right-to-Buy sales at local authority level. However, more detailed information would be of great assistance in answering my research question. Therefore, I hereby submit a Freedom of Information request. I would like access to more detailed data, i.e. at a finer geographical level, on social housing stock and Right-to-Buy sales in the Council area for the period 1980-2021. 
Ideally, the data would follow the following format: 
Variable of interests: Properties sold under Right-to-Buy and Social/Council housing stock 
Geographical unit: As granular as possible (eg. full postcode or full address) 
Time unit: As granular as possible (eg. Date) 
Period covered: As large as possible between 1980 and present time. 
Area covered: As large as possible (eg. all properties managed by the Council at any point in time) 
Additional information: discount applied, property valuation, actual sale price, number of bedrooms, or other characteristics. 
File format: .xlsx (Excel) or .txt.

Thank you for your time in considering my request.

Yours faithfully, 

Nine Spahr, PPE student at the University of Warwick
