Our business model

How the 0% model works

Free lettings is not a loss leader. It's the product.

We earn on optional services around the lettings transaction — not on the letting itself.

Scraye builds value for landlords, tenants and agents — and earns revenue from each group through optional services they choose to use. For landlords, that means products like Advanced Rent and Rent Guarantee Cover. For tenants, it includes rewards programmes, deposit solutions and credit-building tools. For agents and partners, we share referral income on every successful introduction.

On top of that, utility referrals at move-in, platform float income and future data services all contribute to a diversified revenue model that never relies on charging you to let your property. The listing is always free. The business is built around everything that happens next.

FAQ

Common questions

Everything landlords ask before they enquire.

Is Scraye really free for landlords?
Yes — 0% letting fee, permanently. Scraye charges nothing to list, let or renew. No upfront fee, no management cut. The full lettings service is free to the landlord. Revenue comes from optional services that landlords and tenants choose separately.
What is a zero fee letting agent?
A zero fee letting agent charges landlords nothing to find and secure a tenant. Scraye provides photography, portal listings, viewings, referencing, contracts and rent collection at 0% cost to the landlord, earning revenue through optional services instead.
How does Scraye make money if lettings are free?
Through optional services around the letting transaction. Scraye earns from products that landlords and tenants choose to use — including Advanced Rent, Rent Guarantee Cover, utility referrals and tenant rewards programmes. None of these are required to list or let with Scraye.
Is the 0% fee permanent or a promotional offer?
Permanent. Zero fees is a structural decision — not a promotional rate. Scraye's business model is built around earning from optional services rather than letting commissions. There is no plan to introduce fees.
What areas does Scraye cover?
Scraye currently operates in London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Liverpool, Leicester, Newcastle, Sheffield, Nottingham, Cardiff, Coventry, Bradford, Southampton, Plymouth, Derby, Wolverhampton, Stoke-on-Trent, Reading, Sunderland and Hull. Further UK cities are planned. Enter your postcode when enquiring to confirm availability in your area.
Does Scraye work with letting agents?
Yes — our 4,500+ agent network is central to how we find tenants quickly. Partner agents introduce applicants to Scraye listings and earn a referral fee on every successful let. Scraye is a platform that agents work alongside, not a replacement for them.
What happens if my tenant doesn't pay rent?
Scraye handles rent collection and chases late payments as part of the standard service. Landlords can also opt into Rent Guarantee Cover, which covers up to 12 months of missed rent plus £50,000 in legal expenses — activating from the first missed payment with no 90-day exclusion window.
What does the referencing process involve?
Scraye conducts full tenant referencing including employment and income verification, credit check, previous landlord references and right-to-rent verification. The landlord receives a full report and approves the tenant before anything proceeds.
What is Advanced Rent and do I have to use it?
Advanced Rent is entirely optional. It lets landlords receive up to 12 months of rent as a lump sum upfront — the tenant continues paying monthly as normal. A flat fee of 8.5% applies. Funds arrive in 1–3 business days. It is not required to use the lettings service.
Is Scraye regulated?
Scraye Technologies Ltd is registered in England and Wales. Our lettings operations comply with UK letting legislation including the Tenant Fees Act 2019 and the Renters' Rights Act.
How long does it take to find a tenant in Birmingham?
Birmingham's rental market is one of the most active outside London. Scraye lists on all major portals from day one and draws on a 4,500+ agent network to generate applicants quickly. Demand is particularly strong in areas including Digbeth, the Jewellery Quarter, Edgbaston, Harborne and Selly Oak.
Can I use Scraye if I already have a letting agent?
Yes. Many landlords use Scraye for its zero fee structure while their existing agent introduces tenants and earns a referral fee. You remain in full control of your property throughout.
Why Birmingham

The UK's second city, and a major rental market.

Birmingham's private rented sector is one of the largest outside London — driven by a young population, significant student demand and a substantial build-to-rent pipeline now coming to market.

Birmingham lettings — what landlords should know

Birmingham is the UK's second largest city by population and has one of the youngest demographics in Europe, with a large and growing proportion of renters. The city is home to five universities with over 80,000 students, creating sustained rental demand alongside a fast-growing professional population driven by investment in the city centre and surrounding areas. Particularly high tenant demand can be found in Digbeth, the Jewellery Quarter, Edgbaston, Harborne and Selly Oak. A significant BTR pipeline is being absorbed quickly, with rents rising steadily year on year. Scraye is now live across Birmingham postcodes — enquire to confirm your area.
