## About

Based in London, UK, and founded in 2016 by CEO Nigel Purves, Unmortgage Ltd., doing business as Wayhome, offers first-time homebuyers a part-purchase, part-rent option to assist them in buying. In April 2023, Wayhome raised GBP 8 million in series A funding co-led by Allianz X and Augmentum, with participation from other Cur8 Capital, Love Ventures, and Volution Ventures.

Wayhome provides a solution for those struggling to get on the property ladder to buy part-buy, part-rent options, giving homeowners another alternative to financing their homes. The company's partnered institutional investors offer to co-buy a home with as little as a 5% deposit from the client, along with minimal monthly rent, enabling people to buy a home worth up to ten times their income.
