Questions about Rent to Buy in Wandsworth?
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.

What if I want to leave the property?
The lease will be for a 2 year term. At the end of the term we can sign a new lease if you are unable to buy the home. You are of course free to leave the property if you don’t wish to buy or you can carry on with a new lease.
How is Keyzy able to give back all my rent and still make money?
Keyzy is a rent-to-own company. We exist to sell homes to first time buyers and help people onto the property ladder. We’ve got no interest in being long-term landlords. We make money by selling the home to you at the end of your 2-year tenancy. We work with investors and developers to make lots of new-build homes available on our rent-to-own product. We believe in this model because we know there are loads of people out there who want to buy a home but need a little help to get ready before they do. We also charge a small fee of between £999 and £1,999 at the beginning of your tenancy.
