At Buttercross Estates, we know that moving into a new home should be exciting – not stressful. Yet for many tenants, the upfront cost of a traditional deposit can feel like a major hurdle. That’s why we’ve partnered with Reposit, a smarter alternative designed to make renting more affordable and fair.
Why Reposit?
Instead of paying a large cash deposit, tenants pay a small one-off fee equal to just a week’s rent (with a minimum of £150). That means hundreds of pounds saved at the start of your tenancy – money you can put towards furnishing your home, settling in, or simply enjoying life.
For example, on a property with monthly rent of £1,000, a traditional deposit would be £1,153.80. With Reposit, the upfront fee is just £230.76 – leaving you with more than £900 in savings.
Fair and Flexible
At the end of your tenancy, you don’t have to wait weeks for your deposit to be returned. Instead, you only pay for any genuine costs that arise, such as cleaning or repairs. If there are no charges, you walk away without hassle.
Already paid a deposit? You may be able to switch to Reposit and reclaim your cash – ask us about the Reposit Switch option.
Simple Steps to Get Started
- Choose Reposit when you sign your tenancy agreement.
- Sign up online and pay your fee.
- Move in and enjoy deposit-free living.
- Check out at the end of your tenancy, settling any costs directly if needed.
Renting Together?
If you’re moving in as a group, the Reposit fee is shared between all tenants, making it even more affordable.
What to Know
The initial fee is non-refundable, and just like with a traditional deposit, tenants remain responsible for any outstanding costs at the end of the tenancy. Disputes are handled through Reposit’s platform, with a fair process in place to protect both tenants and landlords.
