The Federal Mortgage Bank National Housing Fund (NHF) Loan is still currently ongoing.
Federal Mortgage Bank Of Nigeria (FMBN) is the apex mortgage institution in Nigeria tasked with the responsibility of providing long-term credit facilities to mortgage institutions in Nigeria.
Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) was established in 1956, known then as the Nigerian Building Society (NBS), a joint venture of the Commonwealth Development Corporation and the Federal and Eastern Governments of Nigeria. Following the introduction of the Indigenization Policy, the Federal Government, by Indigenization Act [1973], acquired the NBS and consequently renamed it the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN).
The FMBN has numerous loan and credit facilities that are of big benefit to Nigerians, especially to low and medium-income earners. One of its biggest loan facilities is the National Housing Fund (NHF) which enables low-income earners who are not able to have a house, to build a house of their own.
With FMBN, you do not need to be rich to have a house. All you need to do is tap into its credit facility and you can get the right financial assistance to build your own house and pay back easily in long term. In this article, we will cover all the loans from the Federal Mortgage Bank Of Nigeria (FMBN) and how you can benefit from them.
