Founded in 2016 as Unmortgage, the company rebranded to Wayhome in 2021. Its mission is to create an alternative path to homeownership for people who are unable to get a traditional mortgage. Instead of lending money, Wayhome forms a partnership with its customers, buying a home together. The customer contributes a deposit of at least 5%, and Wayhome's funding partners contribute the rest. The customer then pays rent on the portion they don't yet own and can gradually increase their ownership stake over time, aiming to own the home outright. The company is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA).
