COPEN Group has unveiled a 2,000-unit housing development project and launched a new digital platform aimed at simplifying access to housing finance and property ownership for Nigerians.

The announcement was made during the COPEN Brand Showcase, Stakeholder Appreciation and Strategic Housing Engagement 2026, held at the Amadeo Event Centre in Enugu under the theme, “A Home for Every Dream… A House for Every Pocket.”

The event attracted government officials, housing sector stakeholders, financial institutions, faith-based organisations and members of the public.

Speaking at the event, the Group Managing Director of COPEN, Dr. Ugochukwu Chime, unveiled the flagship Spring City Housing Development located at Umuchigbo, Iji Nike, Enugu.

Chime said the project forms part of the company’s long-term strategy to deliver affordable, structured and sustainable housing communities across Nigeria.

According to him, the development will be executed in phases, beginning with the delivery of 400 housing units in the first phase to ensure quality construction and accessibility for prospective homeowners.

He explained that the project is designed to help individuals and families achieve sustainable homeownership while contributing to broader socio-economic development.

The COPEN chief executive acknowledged the support of the Enugu State Government and host communities in facilitating the successful take-off of the housing initiative.

He noted that beyond providing homes, the project is expected to stimulate economic growth, create jobs, support infrastructure development and enhance community development within the area.

As part of efforts to expand access to housing, Chime also unveiled the “Brother-Sister Help Me Own a House” initiative, which encourages collective support and cooperative financing for aspiring homeowners.

The initiative is being supported by key institutions, including the Ministry of Finance Incorporated (MOFI), the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) and AG Mortgage Bank.

Stakeholders, including the Enugu State Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture (ECCIMA) and the Ministry of Environment and Climate Change, commended the company’s efforts to deepen mortgage access and promote affordable housing delivery.

A major highlight of the event was the launch of the Urban Home Front Application, a digital platform developed to simplify property subscriptions, documentation processes and mortgage applications through collaboration with partner institutions.

According to COPEN, the platform is expected to reduce bottlenecks in property acquisition and improve access to housing finance for Nigerians.

Participants at the event praised the company’s growing contribution to housing delivery and investment facilitation, citing its record in developing structured residential estates targeted at middle-income earners.

Several partners and clients also shared testimonials, describing the company as credible and reliable in project execution and housing development.

COPEN reaffirmed its commitment to expanding access to affordable housing and promoting inclusive homeownership opportunities in line with its vision of providing “A Home for Every Dream and a House for Every Pocket.”
