Renting Revolution:

Delivering Housing For Key Workers

Truly affordable housing for key workers within a mile of their place of work

There are 1.5 million key workers in London and in most cases, they cannot afford to live in the communities they serve.

Even in the most affordable Boroughs, the highest-paid have difficulty living close to their place of work.

For the lowest paid, there is little hope of living anywhere in London.

Why?

Key workers are arguably the hardest working taxpayers in society and have limited access to reasonably priced housing in the cities they serve. Before we support any other group of people, we must support them.

With the rising cost of housing in London, many key workers are unable to live near their place of work, enduring soul destroying commutes of up to 60 miles, or 3 hours a day, every working day.

The Team

The Key is a collective of accomplished real estate professionals who joined forces in 2018 to find a solution to the key worker housing crisis. Our business strongly adheres to Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG) principles to address and reverse the counterintuitive outward migration of key workers from our cities.
