• It has traded about a total volume of 87,664 shares—in 64 deals—valued at N9.63 million in more than three months, with an average of 1,391 traded shares per session.
• A volume high of about 25,000 was achieved on November 24th, barely two weeks after listing, but since then, no significant trade execution has been noted on the fund.

• The Funds were designed to attract diverse investors, offering varying risk-return profiles across Series I and II units.
• With 1 billion units priced at N100 each at the time of listing, it was a key initiative of the government positioned to deepen housing finance and unlock value from federally owned real estate assets.
