HOUSING FINANCE IN NIGERIA: THE ROLE OF THE NATIONAL HOUSING FUND AND THE BENEFITS DERIVABLE FROM CONTRIBUTING TO THE SCHEME BEING A PAPER PRESENTATION BY ENGR.Y.YINUSA Zonal Coordinator (Ibadan Zone) Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria AT UNIVERSITY OF ILORIN TEACHING HOSPITAL (Nightingale Hall, Nurses House) ON March 07,

All protocols Observed. It is a great honour for me to address the quality audience of the Management and staff of the University of Ilorin Teaching Hospital on the benefits of the National Housing Fund. As you are aware, Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria has undergone a rebranding process to meet the challenges of the housing delivery in the country. At the end of the rebranding process, the Bank Came up with new logo of three roofs with a new slogan…….. Everyone deserves a home. This forum therefore provides a platform for interaction with our major stake holders like you. 1.0INTRODUCTION The challenges of housing in Nigeria are enormous and complex; exhibiting marked regional difference which has led to the concern for the provision of decent, affordable mass housing especially for the low and medium income earners. It is estimated that the nation’s housing deficit is in the neighborhood of 16 million. According to National Bureau of Statistics and United Nations study estimates, about million units are needed to bridge the deficit. This translates to between N42- N56 trillion. 2

Government intervention in housing finance started with the establishment of Nigeria Building society (NBS) in 1956 as a joint venture of the Commonwealth Development Corporation (CDC), the Federal Government and the Eastern Nigeria Government. This entity operated exclusively on the mobilization of savings from the open market to fund individual mortgage loans. The promulgation of the Indigenization Act of 1973 signalled the full acquisition of the NBS by the Federal Government and its transformation into Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) in However, with the curtailment of mortgage exposures by banks and housing corporations due mainly to interest regulation on mortgage lending and under-funding, the Bank became the sole provider of mortgage loans for individual homeownership. The policy thrust shifted to direct construction by government in the face of escalating housing shortage to reduce the demand pressure. The outcome is in the 4 th National Development Plan ( ) which effected government’s direct involvement which led to the low cost housing projects known as the Shagari and Jakande houses. This approach made government the mega financier of housing involving huge capital expenditure that ended in dead capital because the houses had 3

no legal title which necessitated the launching of the first formal National Housing Policy in As product of this process, National Housing Fund (NHF) scheme was established in 1992 to address the constraints to the mobilization of long term funds for housing development and also to ensure that every Nigerian has access to housing loans at affordable interest rate. However, the subsequent rise in the shortage of housing (particularly urban housing) revealed the failure of the housing strategies employed in the 1991 housing policy. Consequently, the immediate past administration developed a new national policy on housing and urban development in 2002 representing real effort by government to tackle the housing problem. The policy has since stimulated comprehensive reforms aimed at ensuring access to decent and affordable housing for Nigerians through a robust mortgage finance mechanism. 4

2.0MANDATE OF FEDERAL MORTGAGE BANK OF NIGERIA FMBN’s broad mandate includes: Collecting and administering the National Housing Fund in accordance with the provision of NHF Act No. 3 of Encouraging the emergence and promotion of the growth of viable Primary Mortgage Institutions to service the need of housing delivery in all parts of the country. Mobilizing both domestic and offshore funds into the housing sector. Linking the housing market to the Capital Market through establishing and operating a viable secondary market. 2.1 NATIONAL HOUSING FUND (NHF) LOAN WINDOW 2.1.1NHF Mortgage Loans This facility is granted at 4% interest to accredited PMIs for on-lending at 6% to NHF contributors over a maximum tenor of 30 years. A contributor can access the Fund through an accredited PMI for a mortgage loan to build, buy, improve or renovate own home after meeting the pre-qualification requirement of six months of continuous 5

contributions. These lending conditions make the NHF unequalled as a vehicle for affordable housing delivery in Nigeria Estate Development Loan (EDL) The EDL is a facility granted at 10% interest with a maximum repayment period of 24 months to Private Developers, State Housing Corporations and Housing Cooperatives to mass-produce houses for ownership by NHF contributors on mortgage basis. It is a facility devised to facilitate a large-scale production of houses for sale to contributors at a price not more than N15million. Until recently the maximum ceiling was N5 million Cooperative Housing Loan Scheme (i)Cooperative Housing Development Loan (CHDL) This is another unique loan outlet developed by the Bank to enable Cooperative Societies to access housing development loan (refer to the flyer for the features). (ii)Cooperative National Housing Fund Loan (CNL) This is a loan window enabling individual Cooperative members to have access to the NHF Loan to purchase or renovate their properties (refer to the flyer for the features) 6

3.0 SPECIFIC BENEFITS TO NHF CONTRIBUTORS As a contributor to NHF, the following benefits are accruable:  Access to the loan after six months of continuous contribution. No collateral. The building to be developed serves as the collateral.  The loan attracts low interest (i.e. 6%) and the interest rate is fixed for the duration of the loan.  Beneficiaries have a maximum of 30 years to repay the loan and repayment is on monthly basis just like the monthly rent so that repayment does not endanger the standard of living of citizens (i.e. not more than 1/3 of income should be used as loan repayment).  Contribution is refunded with interest on leaving the scheme and the amount contributed does not determine the amount an individual can borrow. 7
