Rent Without a
Large Upfront Deposit

Move into your new Edinburgh home without paying a traditional security deposit.

How It Works

Move In Faster,
With Less Upfront Cost

A traditional security deposit in Scotland can be up to two months' rent — a significant sum when you're also paying your first month's rent and moving costs. Our deposit-free option lets you spread that cost differently, so moving is more accessible.

Instead of paying a lump sum deposit, you pay a smaller weekly or monthly fee. This protects the landlord in the same way a deposit would, but without tying up your savings.

Keep Your Savings

Don't lock away thousands in a deposit — keep that money for moving costs, furniture or emergencies.

Move In Sooner

Without a large deposit to find, you can move in as soon as references are approved.

Same Protection for Landlords

The landlord is fully protected against damage or unpaid rent — just via a different mechanism.

Refundable on Request

In many cases, you can opt back into a traditional deposit arrangement at any point during the tenancy.
