Our Service
Our main aim is to meet the housing needs of members of retirement funds who more often than not, cannot source housing loans through the traditional channels. UWUW provides an alternative form of housing finance where the loan is secured by the member’s retirement fund savings instead of a mortgage bond. In providing pension backed home loans to members, employers are able to provide the following:
- Access to housing finance, with no bond registration or property valuation fees required
- Easy repayments facilitated through payroll deductions
- Foster better relations with employees by giving access to auxiliary employee benefits which in turn fosters better work performance and company loyalty
- Product adds value to the range of benefits offered by the company
How we do what we do
Our vision is "to be the most sought after branded Loans provider” through creating innovative housing solutions and a strong brand. We perform our duties with four key points in mind: customer centred solutions, innovation, consistency and diligence. We are committed to providing homes to retirement fund members because as our name suggests, “if you have a home, I too have a home".
