      Western Imperialists governments with their economic hitmen in collaboration with corrupt and unpatriotic current and past Kenyan leaders, have corruptly indebted Kenya with unnecessary loans in the interests of Western Imperialists governments, their monopoly corporations and Kenyan corrupt and unpatriotic leaders.
      Except all our leaders take similar stance against Western Imperialism, just as the leaders of the Sahel region are doing, we'll never have a hard currency, a thriving economy and full economic independence from the Imperialists. I wish Kenyans the best, all the way from Nigeria. [ i🇳🇬 ❤ i🇰🇪 ]

      That can happen in any country, particularly in Nigeria. This is why developers were, and hopefully still are required by the City of Seattle in Washington to guarantee against such things for the next 5 years after the sale of a property. There are really crooked developers here in Nigeria who put the love for profit before the love for the precious lives of the innocent.
      "Lagos, dubbed by one expert who spoke to the BBC as " the building-collapse capital of Nigeria", has seen at least 90 buildings falling down in the last 12 years, leaving more than 350 people dead, according to the Council for the Regulation of Engineering in Nigeria". While BBC isn't really a reputable source, this one is actually true because I live here.

    Kenyan Living in Canada. Here is the reason why i rejected property purchase in Kenya. In dollar terms i have not seen price appreciation in well over a decade in the Kilimani to Westlands area. Rental yields are very stable if not flat. At the 1500 to 1kish range in that area. The density of that complex is rather high. There is money to be made in land.
    The other area i have looked at is low income housing. Its not sexy but between double digit rental yields and massive land price appreciation. it looks very attractive.
    When it comes to ethnicity each offer something different. Chinese is always on time on spec however you need to do a reno after two years cause its all cheap shit and looks dated very fast. Somalis also fast. They have a very European style but very tacky styling, and bang for buck i prefer them. In terms of where i would leave my money obviously i would pick a Kenyan Somali cause why would i give money to a foreigner to send it abroad.
    I'm speaking with some authority i have landed properties. However my focus is on rental income stability and growth. You analysis of the Kenyan economy is spot on they are in deep trouble.

      Am in Kenya and the issue is the rate of apartments development. If you buy from one project, before long there are other better ones all aorund you so naturally everything slows down in terms on rental return coz options increase.
      In terms of project completion, Chinese are still the best. If you own the project maybe you can influence the quality level of materials you want but also be willing to pay for it and also be practical on your client target and location.

    This is a very good area! The best in Nairobi. I used to go to school near here. Even if Kenya has a crisis this will not go down that much. Soon all the good land around the city will be gone. The traffic is a nightmare with people taking hours to get to their jobs in the city. Kenya does not have rail abd drive like other large cities..ie you ride the train to the city and park at large parking lots all along the route out of the city. The traffuc is only going to get worse. Pollution will become a problem as we are a very long way from EV vehicles and infrastructure. Still lots oil around the world.
    It is sad as Nairobi has the best weather in the whole world! An average 74°F all year round!!! Most people assume all of Africa is hot and dry being close to the equator.
    Climate Change is real. With the large rain and flooding event will be more common..but that is all over the world...erratic weather..Spain suffered more deaths in their floods this year for a 1sr world country. So Nairobi and Kenya will be just like any country dealing with Climate Change. However Kenya does not have the wealth and infrastructure to recover from major weather catastrophes like the US for instance! However it is still a safer bet than like the Philippines which is on the Ring of Fire or island nations like Seychelles or the Maldives.
    Kenya has a lot of potential as it is an incredibly beautiful country but no effort was made by its leaders to limit population growth.
    I remember growing up in Kenya and 45 years driving to the coast from Nairobi and i would star out the car window looking for wild animals along the where as it was all open spaces. Sadly today these areas are full of population centers with mostly unplanned poor communities. Unfortunately tribalism is a huge curse for Kenya and unless Kenya does something like what Singapore with different communities competing against each other. Laws were put in place to force people to form associations with other ethnic groups and not live as separate communities. A nation divided will always fall.
    Sadly no politician. In Kenya wants to do the hard things for the good of the future of the country.
    Which leads to all common CORRUPTION. Each person wants to get ahead without concern for their neighbor. No sence of doing what is in the good of the nation. The government neefs to push the notion that one is Kenyan first and last! No Kikiyu or Luo etc. However politicians need to divide and conquer so Kenya may always have that problem.
    It is a huge loss to the country as you see a Kenyan form a stronger bonf with a foreigner than another Kenya. Adani from India was just charged with bribery in a major court in New York. One wonders how much was passed under the table for Adani to aquire his big project for the Airport system. Kenya could grow well if done right. But those jn charge are not looking at doing that. They lack the intelligence to see when the wool is pulled over their eyes by foreigner investors. Instead the weath and money of Kenya leaves and goes to India or China. The government will have custom agents to catch the small fry taking money out of the country when billions are going out the fromt door.
    The Railway Station building built in Nairobi by the Chinese was a prime example of complete waste of toms of money...but instead we will see the same thing happening over and over! One can build beautiful design without throwing away tons of money. Unfortunately i am not in a leadership roll as i don't come the royal families in Kenya. And for that reason Kenya will always stagnate.
    It is shame as Kenya is blessed with so much potential but its leaders will always fail its people. And unfortunately they say the politicians are a refection of the people.
    I will always love Kenya and its people and hope for a brighter future for all.

      I was born in Nairobi 1960 and my father came to Kenya in 1927 from Punjab India to work along the first railway line from Mombasa to Nairobi, so I know the history very well, I have seen the changes. The population explosion started suddenly in the 70s the power struggles based on ethnicity and taking away of our businesses started at the same time. The lack of investment in infrastructure declined despite lots of foreign aids , but this is still a very blessed land and it's evident that the global people have continued to contribute and invest in Nairobi and Kenya, I consider myself as a Kenyan and always dream of coming back to contribute and have a look around the place where I was born and grew up of fond memories, I hope things are and can only get better. Believe in Kenya. 🙏🧡👍🪯🇰🇪🇬🇧

    Fantastic video on property investment in the heart of beautiful Nairobi ,Kenya.
    Unlike other property investment videos seen ,this one stands out in my view !
    All the relative important questions in respect to investment along with all pros and cons when investing and buying property were well captured excellently ,not too mention ,taking we the viewers to the actual sites where intended construction is believed to happen and the real deal braker in my opinion 😀was showing property investors to always be keen on finding out who their next door neighbours are or will most likely be in future which in true honesty many property agents never show who the neighbours are very well knowing the beautiful interiors they are showcasing online have views that are already obscured with no natural light that is a beautiful part whilst investing in a luxurious property.
    Undoubtedly an important key point that sealed it for me in the video when you showed the viewers the aerial view of the property and what could possibly happen most likely if the neighbours were too sell , extremely key factor whilst investing in a multimillion beautiful apartment.
    Needless to say ,congratulations on your apartment investments and most assured with the rate of beautiful properties coming up you will be highly enticed to invest again 😊👍🏾
    Kenya 🇰🇪 is a beautiful country and indeed it is your second home now.😊👍🏾
    All the best in all your future endeavours and do enjoy the beauty of your new home Kenya and the amazing wonderful adventures that come along with it.

    I lived very close (Mpaka Road, Parklands) to Westlands for a decade in the 80s. Westlands Administrative Division consists of 7 subdivisions of which Parklands is one of them. Westlands is a beautiful and affluent mixed residential and commercial neighbourhood, with a sizeable expat population, and is located close to Nairobi's central business center. It is a preferred choice by many as it close to top hospitals and schools, banks, malls, offices, hotels, restaurants, bars and clubs.

    Kenya's rental market is experiencing a building boom, but it's crucial for potential buyers to exercise caution. The surge in projects has created a saturated market, with many developments lacking proper regulation. Furthermore, the income disparity in the country means that many of these projects are not aligned with the financial capabilities of the intended buyers. Before investing, it's essential to research the contractor's building history, have competent legal representation, and ensure that projects are completed on time. Some contractors have run into financial trouble, abandoning projects or delaying completion by months or even years. Given Kenya's weak and corrupt laws, it's vital to do your due diligence to avoid costly pitfalls.

On face value you are definitely right it would be cheaper for you if the currency devalues over the construction period but wouldn’t this currency devaluation also impact the developer negatively ? Their cost of materials and labor( in shillings) would increase and eat away their profits which could in the worst case mean a bankruptcy and a total loss of investment? So there seems to be a sweetspot of the devaluation rate of the shilling🤔

    • @TheWanderingInvestor

      @@Blizzadman Correct. The labour part would be fine, the import of materials less so. They’ve been operating a long time in Africa and hopefully have learned from this.
      But yes, you are right, there is a (fairly wide) sweetspot.

    Do you have seen the previous projects of this developper? I am asking coz in the video there was no information about the quality of the construction.
    have seen many new built in Nairobi from chinese developpers, most deliver low quality which is okay regards to the price.
    But some years later problems are starting...
    So if you bought 3 apartments, one strategy might be to sell 2 of them after construction is finished for a high price and get the remaining one for free.

    You missed something very important. No mention of exit strategy for foreign investors when they sell - capital gains taxes, agency fees, ease to get permission for expatriation of funds, etc. Very crucial issues for a first time buyer in Kenya.

    These Chinese developers should be investing in Rwanda as well. While I was in Rwanda, I noticed you couldn't possibly find a completed condo in a high-rise building because there weren't much of them, and the very few that existed were all under construction. Is this the case with these type of properties in Kenya as well?

      True, but Rwandan infrastructure is as developed as that of Kenya, and there's market for these condos as well. In addition, the condo market isn't saturated yet, which explains why they're far more expensive in Rwanda compared with the price you just showed us.
      The only condo I saw that was slated for completion by December 31st, listed a 3 Bed Condo with 104.79 sqm on the 11th floor for $216k, and a 1 Bedroom with 68.36 sqm on the same floor for $107k.
      Service charge is $1 per sqm. 🤔 Should I relocate to Kenya

      Rwandas land mass is low and it has some policies protecting Rwanda's interests in relation to investment's especially by foreign developers.. scenerios Chinese developers do units after uptake the investor gets the money back to China, .. it takes out from a country.. Kenya is not regulated especially to foreign developers.
