The appointment of the Board is expected to be completed by 30th September 2018. Day to day management of the Company is delegated to a 3 person senior leadership team headed by the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer.
What We Do Towards the achievement of its two core objectives, the Company will manage two funds:
Homes Building Fund – Will provide debt and equity financing into eligible projects particularly those targeting people on low to medium incomes. The objective of the Homes Building Fund is to support development of new affordable housing through private and public sector partners. The financing opportunities are available in all states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory.

Homes Loans Assistance Fund – This fund will provide financing assistance to eligible home buyers. The facility is a key part of our strategy for improving affordability of home ownership towards people on low to medium income. By June 2019, we expect to have committed N25bn towards the programme.
In addition to the above we expect to roll out a Rental Housing Fund and a Land Development Fund over the next 18months. Our work in these areas are underpinned by two key commitments:
Partnerships – We can achieve much more collectively than any single player can individually. The Funds aims to build strong partnerships with a broad range of institutions and agencies to maximize every opportunity for enabling access to affordable housing for Nigerians, particularly those on low income.
Innovation – We are committed to innovation across each area of our focus areas. This is an ongoing journey which will be shaped by the passion and commitment of our team to improve the quality of lives of the people we serve.
