How to rent properties without deposits or agents?
A simple guide on how to rent properties digitally without deposits or agents, and pay half on first month’s rent.
Think travel, stock trading and dating. Before the age of Internet, agents play a crucial role in matchmaking. Today, you can book a flight, hotel, trade your stocks and even find your lifetime partner online from the convenience of your PC and mobile, anytime -anywhere.
This is all possible because Internet is the communication enabler be it human to human or machine, instantly and effectively. So why not renting a property?
Property platforms existed today were mainly focused in connecting owner or renter with the agents. Agent is still the glue for the relationship by communicating with both parties; hence the perceived importance of agents in today’s world.
What if a platform that focused solely on connecting owner with the renter by facilitating both parties to chat directly? Now, that opens up the possibility of renting houses direct, DoItYourself! (DIY)

OK, So Should I Lease Direct?
Check your profile with the following comparison table for suitability:
100% DIY
- Wish to save commission
- Wish to know the tenant personally.
Hybrid (DIY + Agent)
- Don’t mind paying commission to agent or putting in a little effort DIY.
- Most importantly the property is leased out ASAP!
100% Agent

First Month 50% Off!
Traditionally, owners pay the agent one month commission when you rent a house through an agent. However, if you rent through Speedrent, owners save the one month commission that they would have paid the agent. Speedrent wants to create a win-win situation for both owners and you, so as part of the requirement to advertise on Speedrent, owners need to split the savings, 50% with you. So your first month’s rent is 50% off!
And How About No Deposit?
56% of owners that advertise in Speedrent allow No Deposit Move In!
Traditionally you pay 2-3x of your monthly rent as deposit. It’s such a financial pain. With Speedrent No Deposit Scheme, you pay a small sum of fees to Speedrent, and it turns into a no deposit deal. It is that easy!
