The Renewed Hope Housing Programme is part of the Federal Government’s plan to make homeownership easier and more affordable for Nigerians.
Managed by the Federal Ministry of Housing and Urban Development, the programme provides one-, two-, and three-bedroom semi-detached bungalows at uniform prices nationwide.
If you are a civil servant, a low- or middle-income earner, a private-sector worker, or even a Nigerian in the diaspora, you can apply. Here’s how to do it step by step.
Step 1: Visit the Official Website
Go to www.renewedhopehomes.fmhud.gov.ng. This is the only approved portal for applications. Avoid third-party links or social media adverts asking for money or personal details.
Step 2: Create an Account

Choose the housing unit that suits your needs and budget:
- One-bedroom bungalow – ₦8.5 million
- Two-bedroom bungalow – ₦11.5 million
- Three-bedroom bungalow – ₦12.5 million
These prices are the same across all states, so applicants have equal opportunities regardless of location.
Step 5: Choose a Payment Option
There are flexible payment plans to make the homes affordable:
- Outright payment if you can pay at once
