Reposit - Nil Deposit Scheme

We’ve partnered with a company called Reposit who offer an alternative to paying a cash deposit. By using Reposit you can save a lot of money upfront as you will only need to pay the Reposit fee of £184.61 instead of a cash deposit which will be £923 The Reposit fee is not refundable at the end of the tenancy. You can use the money you save to spend on something you actually want!

Please note that just like a normal deposit, you are still liable for any valid, end of tenancy charges. The difference with Reposit is that you keep control of your cash and only pay these if they actually occur at the end of your tenancy, rather than paying at the start. If you stay beyond a 12 month period, a £30 charge will be payable to reposit once a year to continue the cover.

This is optional and a normal deposit scheme is also available. Reposit is subject to certain referencing criteria and may not be granted following referencing
