    The Team

    Stairpay was founded by Floris ten Nijenhuis in 2022. He holds a degree from the University of Oxford and has been working in the technology space since 2018. Prior to that, he worked for Barclays Investment Bank, advising large institutions on how to manage their interest rate risk.

    Our team consists of technology experts with a background in finance, the mortgage space and gradual ownership products.

    About Us

    Get in touch

    At Staipay we believe that gradual ownership is the future for first time buyers.

    It currently takes over 10 years on average for first time buyers to save up for a deposit to buy a house, unless they have the support of the Bank of Mum and Dad. We’re here to change that.

    With gradual ownership you can access the property market much earlier and depending on which scheme you choose you may even be able to buy some equity immediately.

    Our journey started with Shared Ownership, as it is currently the largest affordable housing scheme in the world, but our technology is built to cater for any gradual ownership scheme, such as Rent to Buy or Shared Equity.

    Whether you’re a large institutional fund who has been doing this for years or you’re new to this world, we have customers just like you, so reach out and let us see if we can help you make a difference.

    Our Mission

    Stairpay was founded in 2022 with a clear mission, allowing anyone to afford the home of their dreams. Whether it’s your first home or your forever home we all dream of having a place we can call our own.

    Who are our customers

    Stairpay connects every stakeholder in the gradual ownership space. We work with large institutional funds, Housing Associations, mortgage brokers, banks and regulators. We have ambitious growth plans, so if we don’t currently cater to your needs, reach out as we might have something up our sleeve.
