Core Houses

A core house is a basic low cost but decent house that can accommodate an average family size. Core houses act as a quick shelter solution to low and modest earners in Zimbabwe and beyond. In Zimbabwe core houses are common in high density areas such as Glen Norah, Kambuzuma, Dzivarasekwa and Chitungwiza. Normally a core house gives the room for owner to extend it in future because is normally an extract from the main house plan.
ShelterSol Property Development built core houses for clients with own land and also built its own core houses for the open market. The construction is funded by housing loans provided by ShelterSol finance. Our core houses vary in size according to the client’s ability to repay. They range in size from 1 room to 6 rooms with bathroom and toilet.
Our ideal time to finish core house construction is 2 months so that our client quickly gets into the house and starts to service the loan easily without the rent burden.
House Extensions

This is a service we offer to people who already have core houses and main houses in need of extensions. We do such extensions funded by a loan from ShelterSol Finance. This service is designed for our existing and new clients. Our existing clients are those we previously built houses/core houses for and after successfully repaying their loan they need an extension. We can do so under a new housing loan agreement. New clients can also come in with their approved extension plans and we can still deliver the same service to them.
Main Houses
This is the main dwelling for the stand. We also construct main houses for our clients who may have their stands or might have bought our developed stands. Main house designs are flexible and we normally follow the client’s own as approved by the local authority. The main houses are also built on loans given by ShelterSol finance payable over 5 years. We expect to finish house construction within the shortest possible period of time to allow the client to be sheltered then start to repay whilst settled in his/her house.
Residential Stands
ShelterSol also offers residential stands especially in high density areas in Zimbabwean urban areas. We offer affordable fully developed stands to our valued clients so that they can quickly get settled without any problems with the local authorities. Our stands normally average 200sqm in size.
Land Development Services
SHELTERSOL Property Development also offers land development services financed by its sister company ShelterSol Finance to the Central Government, local authorities, organisations and clients with own land. We do the land development process with distinction so that within the shortest period of time the beneficially can enjoy undisturbed occupation of their property.
Social Amenities
We also believe that our health as an organisation comes from a healthy community hence we also have social amenities products tailor made for our communities. We built schools, clinics and even Halls for communities funded by ShelterSol Finance loans payable over a long period. Schools facing learning and housing facilities shortages here is the solution. The same applies to communities without clinics, community halls etc. ShelterSol is the solution.
