    • ProblemTechnology

      "It is expensive to move homes in the UK, and tenants need to pay a deposit that can be thousands of pounds. This can be a barrier to people moving, and it can also be difficult to get the deposit back if there are any issues with the property."

      Solution

      "Reposit offers a cheaper alternative to traditional tenancy deposits. Tenants pay a weekly fee to Reposit, which covers the landlord for any damage or unpaid rent. This makes it easier for tenants to move home, and it also provides landlords with more security."
