Home Ownership

At Comrade Trustee Services Limited (CTSL), we understand that home ownership is a significant goal for many of our members. That’s why we’ve designed tailored initiatives to help our disciplined forces achieve this milestone through accessible, practical housing solutions. 

How to become a homeowner

CTSL supports eligible members in realizing their home ownership dreams through two main pathways: 

  • Toea Homes — offering affordable, serviced land allotments and homes in secure, well-planned communities. 
  • Member Housing Advance Scheme (MHA) — allowing qualifying members to access part of their superannuation savings for home building or purchasing costs. 

Members who have contributed continuously for five years or more can apply for these housing benefits. Our dedicated team assists members throughout the process, from eligibility checks to securing your new home. 

Toea Homes

Toea Homes is CTSL’s flagship residential development project, created to provide quality, serviced land and affordable home ownership options exclusively for our members.
