Questions about Rent to Buy in Canning Town?
Read through some frequently asked questions.
How much deposit do I need?
Unlike most normal rentals, you don’t need a deposit to move into the property. However, you will need a deposit to buy the house at the end of the lease if you want to. The typical minimum deposit required to buy a home is normally 5% or 10%. There are currently some zero deposit mortgages available but as we don’t know their availability at the end of the lease term it would be best to prepare to have to pay some form of deposit. We can provide you details as to a regular monthly amount to save to have the required funds at the end of the lease.
Are there any hidden fees?
There are no hidden fees on our Keyzy product. It costs £1,999 to get your keyzy at the beginning. Your rental will be fixed for the full duration of your lease, no increases! We don’t demand, we don’t charge you a fee if you don’t by the home at the end.
