HOW NestSTEPS® WORKS
Our program is built on a proven model where housing assistance programs have driven measurable gains in employee retention. We took that further and built a scalable, 3-tiered approach to tackle retention challenges head-on.
-
System & Tools – SaaS platform that facilitates and tracks savings and spending goals and automates cashflow to drive positive financial habits and accelerate savings.
-
Contribution Model – Employer contribution models that reallocate turnover costs into durable retention. NestSTEPS® also contributes up to $2,000 toward the employee's home purchase, when they use a NestSTEPS®-affiliated agent and our preferred lender.
-
Education – A live 6-part education series on home buying, financing, and long-term financial wellness, offered every quarter. Plus ongoing 1:1 support from our licensed professionals.
Homeownership and financial guidance are complex and heavily regulated. NestSTEPS delivers a convenient plug-and-play solution with robust reporting capabilities and licensed experts who support your employees while keeping your organization safe and compliant.
