Build Your Home. Build Your Future.

Umnotho offers six community-led housing developments with a combined total of 3,000 housing units, all located in Muldersdrift, a peaceful, well-connected area with easy access to Lanseria Airport, Cosmo City, Northgate Mall, Cradlestone Mall, and major routes across Johannesburg and Mogale City.

Why Umnotho Housing Exists

Umnotho Village was founded on a simple belief: every family deserves a decent, affordable home.

It began with twelve families from the informal settlements of Muldersdrift who were tired of living in cramped shacks, facing daily struggles with poor sanitation and unsafe conditions. In 2011, each family contributed R150 per month toward buying land.

By 2015, 650 families had saved R4.5 million, enabling the purchase of 28 hectares of land. Today, Umnotho has grown to 60 hectares, a testament to what a united community can achieve.

 

Umnotho’s housing model is built on collaboration, self-help, and the stokvel approach:

working together, saving together, and building together.

Our journey proves a simple truth:

When people are empowered with tools, knowledge, and ownership, they can transform their lives and their communities.
