Deposit alternative provider Reposit has reported record results for the first half of 2025 (January–June), driven by a significant increase in sales volumes with exceptional growth in the Build-to-Rent (BTR) sector.
Total sales across all sectors rose by 37% compared to H1 2024, reflecting a strategically strong six-month period.
Exceptional growth came from the BTR sector, where sales surged by an impressive 91% year-on-year.
During H1 2025, Reposit expanded its partnerships with estate agencies, including a notable partnership with the 14-branch London firm Martyn Gerrard.
BUILD TO RENT GROWTH
In the BTR market, Reposit continued to grow its footprint, securing major clients such as Lomond Investment Management & Touchstone Corporate Property Services on behalf of the Lloyds Living portfolio, which manages a portfolio of over 5,000 rental homes across the UK, as well as operators ila and Bricklane.
Ben Grech, Chief Executive of Reposit, says: “This accelerating momentum reflects strong and growing demand for our product from both the agency and BTR sectors. This is driven by our proven track record and competitive product, caahanges to the macro-economic context and the launch imminent implementation of the Renters’ Rights Bill.
“We’re proud to be setting the pace in a growing market as the leading deposit alternative supplier, and we’re on track to further expand our share in both agency and BTR sectors in the second half of the year.”
IMPROVED RESIDENT EXPERIENCE
And he adds: “Our rapid growth in the BTR sector shows how operators are turning to Reposit to improve the resident experience, speed up leasing, and boost NOI – all while maintaining compliance and offering greater flexibility.
“Operators, landlords, and agents value our eight weeks’ cover particularly in today’s uncertain economic climate and as the Renters’ Reform Bill progresses. Solutions like Reposit also provide a fully compliant, revenue-generating service.
“For tenants, Reposit’s lower upfront cost is a clear advantage and in today’s high-inflation, high-interest environment, many see it as a smarter financial choice over tying up funds in a traditional cash deposit.”
Tenants who choose Reposit pay one week’s rent as a non-refundable fee instead of having to find five weeks’ rent at the start of their tenancy. All tenants are eligible to use Reposit provided they pass referencing or provide a UK guarantor.
