"Partnering with Legacie further expands our reach within the sector. As the appetite for secure and flexible deposit solutions grows, we’re helping operators deliver smoother, more efficient experiences for residents"
- Zoe Murphy - Reposit
UK deposit alternative provider Reposit has formed a new partnership with developer, contractor, and operator Legacie, bringing flexible renting options to a portfolio of 3,500 homes.
Through the collaboration, residents at all Legacie developments can choose between a traditional five‑week cash deposit or Reposit’s alternative model. Those opting for Reposit pay a non‑refundable fee equivalent to one week’s rent, subject to standard referencing checks or a qualifying UK guarantor, instead of committing a full five‑week deposit upfront.
Founded in 2015 and based in the North West of England, Legacie develops high‑quality homes and amenities that regenerate underused spaces, creating sustainable communities while professionally managing most of its portfolio to maintain long‑term quality and value.
Reposit’s platform helps developers and build‑to‑rent operators attract residents by reducing financial barriers. It also provides up to eight weeks’ cover for rent arrears or damages, simplifies end‑of‑tenancy administration, and cuts the time spent on deposit management.
Zoe Murphy, partnership sales associate at Reposit, said, “Partnering with Legacie further expands our reach within the sector. As the appetite for secure and flexible deposit solutions grows, we’re helping operators deliver smoother, more efficient experiences for residents.”
Charlotte O’Driscoll, operations director - management & lettings at Legacie, added, “Enhancing the resident experience is at the heart of what we do. Partnering with Reposit helps us deliver on that commitment by offering residents a trusted, FCA‑regulated alternative to large upfront deposits, while also giving landlords added cover and peace of mind through a secure, efficient tenancy process.”
