What 99home actually is

99home is a low-cost online agent selling tiered listing packages, with Rightmove and Zoopla distribution at the entry level and more hand-holding further up the range.

What would an estate agent cost you?

Set your asking price and see what you would hand over in commission — and what you keep by selling on Keyzee instead.

At a typical 1.42% fee that is £3,550 in commission. On Keyzee it is £0 — you keep the lot.

Estimates only, for illustration. Agent fees vary by area, agent and property; most quote a percentage plus VAT. Keyzee charges no listing fee and no commission.

Where 99home costs you

  • The £99 tier is deliberately minimal. The entry package is distribution and little else; support, photography and viewing management sit in the pricier tiers.
  • Package pricing is hard to compare. Tier boundaries and what falls inside them shift, which makes the true cost of a sale difficult to work out before you commit.
  • Paid up front, non-contingent. You buy the package regardless of outcome — there is no refund attached to failing to sell.

When 99home is the better choice

We would rather be useful than pushy, so: budget sellers comfortable running the whole sale themselves will probably be happier with 99home than with us. Keyzee does not run your viewings, write your description or negotiate on your behalf. If you want those things done for you, paying for them is a perfectly sensible decision.

Keyzee is for the seller who is willing to speak to buyers directly — and would rather keep the commission than pay someone to stand between them.

Why Keyzee is free

  • No seller fees at all. Listing is free, selling is free, and there is no subscription ticking away while your home is on the market.
  • We earn from optional partners. If you choose a conveyancer, mortgage broker or EPC assessor through Keyzee, they pay us a referral fee. You are never obliged to use one.
  • Buyers message you directly. Enquiries, questions and offers come straight to you rather than through an agent relay. See how selling without an agent works →

99home alternatives — common questions

Is there a free alternative to 99home?

Yes. Keyzee is free to list and free to sell — no subscription, no fixed fee and 0% commission. 99home charges entry packages from around £99, with higher tiers for more support. Keyzee makes its money from optional partner referrals (conveyancers, mortgage brokers, EPC assessors) if you choose to use them, never from the seller's sale.

How much does 99home cost?

As checked on 30 July 2026, 99home charges entry packages from around £99, with higher tiers for more support, with 0% commission on completion. Add-ons such as photography, floorplans and premium portal placement are usually priced separately. Check their site for current pricing before you decide.

What is the catch with a free platform like Keyzee?

There is no fee and no commission — the trade-off is that you do the parts an agent would otherwise do: writing the listing, answering buyer messages and running your own viewings. If you would rather someone else handled all of that, a paid agent is the better fit and we would say so.

Do I still need a solicitor if I sell without an agent?

Yes. You are removing the estate agent, not the legal process. A conveyancer still handles the legal work once you have agreed a sale, on any of these platforms.
