Johannesburg’s inner-city is a truly African city and a place of inclusion, economic growth and opportunity. So said Paul Jackson, CEO of TUHF, at the official opening of Fedsure House – the newest property refurbishment project undertaken by Samuel Beyin, the CEO of Focus1 student accommodation and a long-standing TUHF client. Located at 13 Plein Street in Johannesburg’s CBD, Fedsure House is a state-of-the-art student accommodation facility.

TUHF Group’s founding CEO, Paul Jackson, has reached retirement age and will be stepping down from his position as TUHF’s CEO at the end of December 2025.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, property stocks in general took a significant hit, where retail and commercial office space – and even some industrial property holdings – were affected. In contrast, lower-income affordable housing – and inner-city housing in particular – has performed better than most other property markets in South Africa over the same period.
