ABOUT TBHC With the progress of Triangle Fraternity, the Building Loan Fund knew it needed to evolve to support housing needs in parallel to the Fraternity’s vision. In 2014, it was decided that the BLF would transition to a stand-alone entity to enable a more dynamic response to the Fraternity’s housing needs. In 2014 the Triangle Building & Housing Corporation was formed in order to own & manage chapter assets, increase loan & mortgage services, implement expanded educational training & programs, and partner with local house corporations & alumni to implement industry standard life safety programs & facilities.
AVAILABLE RESOURCES Triangle Building & Housing Corporation is dedicated to propviding top notch experience and industy insight into a multitude of responsibilities involved in maintaining a chapter home.
Over the last five years, the TBHC has created a larger profile in direct partnerships with local alumni & house corporations to create and improve chapter opportunities across the realm.
