After 16 years of flat sharing and renting around London, Zara was determined to get on the property ladder and enjoy the security of her own home with her young son.
The price was paramount, as was the location, planning - as she was - for her son’s future schooling. But top of the list was buying a home in a way that aligned with her religious beliefs.

Yes. StrideUp's Home Purchase Plan has been assessed by Mufti Faraz Adam at Amanah Advisors, an independent Shariah Advisory firm. It is their view that the agreements, product mechanism and product concept conform with the principles of Shariah and is Shariah compliant.
StrideUp’s Home Purchase Plan does not involve interest as the money is not lent to customers.
Interest is a result of lending and charging a fee for the loan. Since StrideUp does not loan any money to the customer, there is no interest that is involved.
StrideUp’s product is structured differently to a mortgage; we purchase the property in partnership with our customers with each party owning a share.
The customer then buys our stake in the property over time, paying rent on the portion that they do not yet own.
By gradually buying out StrideUp's share of the property, at the end of the agreement, the customer owns the property outright - without ever paying interest.
