Keyzy is a FinTech and PropTech company focused on facilitating home ownership for young professionals and first-time buyers. Recognizing the challenges posed by high property prices and stringent mortgage criteria, Keyzy offers an innovative rent-to-own model. The company purchases a home on behalf of the client and rents it for a predetermined period of three to seven years. During this time, a portion of the monthly rent—up to 25%—is credited towards a future deposit. At the end of the rental term, clients have the option to buy the home at the original purchase price, minus the accumulated deposit. By addressing the barriers that prevent many, including essential workers, from owning homes, Keyzy aims to disrupt the cycle of renting and support clients in achieving their home ownership goals.
Virgil SAS, founded in 2018 and based in Paris, France, specializes in providing financial solutions to assist individuals in purchasing homes.

This model allows first-time buyers to achieve homeownership approximately seven years earlier than the average, facilitating their transition from renting to owning and contributing to their long-term financial stability.
