Changing the face of South Africa’s inner cities one building at a time

TUHF is geared toward financing projects which are planned by entrepreneurs with a good character, strong knowledge of their area, excellent management skills and reliable contacts.

All projects must be financially feasible and achieve TUHF’s inner-city regeneration goals. Emphasis will be placed on financing projects located in areas that are seeing major decline but are in close proximity to transport routes, schools, shops, and businesses.

This ensures that financed projects have the potential to uplift the community while ensuring the entrepreneur is able to repay their development or property bridging loan and generate a profit from their rental business.
