Rent works now.
Agreed rent, move-in date, responsibilities, and tenancy terms.
For landlords covering mortgage payments on an empty buy-to-let. Publish a tenancy and separate purchase option, review verified applicants, and choose who moves in.

Rent starts first. Purchase remains an option, not an obligation.
What gets agreed
Tenancy covers the home now. A separate solicitor-drafted option sets the route to buy later. Applicants see both before applying.
Agreed rent, move-in date, responsibilities, and tenancy terms.
Chosen term, price method, exercise route, and breach protection.
One agreement, two routes
Tenancy and purchase option remain separate solicitor-drafted documents. Platform explains facts, verifies applications, and leaves selection with landlord.
Landlord route
Buyer route
Application circuit
Same checks for every adult applicant. No automated ranking. No hidden score deciding who deserves a home.
Rent, discount, term, and future-price rule publish together.
Title, lender, lease, letting, and insurance evidence checked.
Identity, Right to Rent, affordability facts, and references.
Landlord chooses and records objective reason. Platform does not rank.
Commercial terms
Landlord fee aligns with occupied-property outcome. Buyer pays no platform or option fee.
| Landlord success fee | One month of agreed rent, plus VAT where applicable. |
|---|---|
| Fee trigger | Signed tenancy, signed option, first rent cleared to landlord, and keys handed over. |
| Buyer fees | £0 listing, application, option, renewal, or platform fee. |
| Legal setup | Landlord funds standard documents. Independent advice remains available. |
| Buyer exit | Option ends with tenancy unless exercise notice already served. Material breach uses written notice and cure process. |
