It’s one of the easiest and effective ways to get fund to build your house.

One strategy that has been implored by most average Nigerians to become Landlord with peace of mind and no stress is that they joined credible cooperatives thrift and credit societies.

What is a cooperative?

A cooperative is an association of persons, who have voluntarily come together to achieve a common economic goal through contributions to the capital required and accepting a fair share of the risks and benefits of the undertaking.

The purposes which it can serve are very numerous and very diverse, but we must understand that no one cooperative is likely to take over the whole economic life of the country.

Thus it’s always good for a cooperative to focus its activities on its greatest strength that will help it to serve members better.

Since our concern here is how to fund house with cooperatives, I will be sharing information on one of the most credible housing cooperative in Nigeria.

It’s known as Prime Assets Housing Cooperative Society, which was initiated by Realty Point Limited.

The objective is to assist individuals to fund house and become landlords.

It is registered with the appropriate government supervisory body and runs independent of the promoters with full complement of duly elected executives.

They achieve this objective through the following means:

1. Providing members the opportunity to purchase properties and construct it for self use.

2. They provide a 10 – 20 years micro-mortgage scheme for members.

3. Provide real estate and other investment opportunities for collective gain of members.

4. Provide investment (real estate inclusive), entrepreneurial and other life enhancing training to members at our monthly meetings.

5. Providing well researched and negotiated clusters of landed properties members can buy. They also assist in developing it into mini-estates and providing other services as may be required. For example, access to mortgage facilities below the market rate building materials, etc.

6. Provide opportunities for members to borrow for growth in their business operations through their well structured and professional managed thrift in association with participating Micro-Finance Banks. 20% of their fund house cash at any time is made available for their thrift operation.
