Good news:

1. FG approved 0 % equity contribution for housing loans below N5m. Once you're are 18years above, working in public or private sector, you are qualified. Go & look for PMI to secure the loan. It's your money & it is for a duration of at least 25yrs.

2. FG just approved the reduction in equity contribution for housing loans of N6m to N15m from 20% to 10% . Go look for PMI pls. It is your MONEY. Stop paying house rent, you can be a landlord once you are 18years above.

3. You can obtain NHF via ur PMI within 3 to 5months if you have a serious and committed PMI. Please don’t let anyone deceived you on Facebook, go and apply. Look for a developer that works with a PMI. You will get it. As a middle class people, Na only school fees will be your headache.

4: FG just made life comfortable for you in public and private sectors, go and apply for housing loan. Max is N15m. Make housing comot from your stress. Just school fee.

primary mortgage institutions (PMI)

NHF Mortgage Loans through PMBs

This facility is granted to accredited Primary Mortgage Banks (PMBs) for on-lending at 6% to NHF contributors over a maximum tenor of 30 years, which is secured by the mortgaged property. A contributor can access up to N15million from the Fund through an accredited PMI as a mortgage loan to build, buy, improve or renovate own home after 6 (six) months of continuous contributions. This lending conditions make the NHF unequalled as a vehicle for affordable housing delivery in Nigeria
