I visited nextgen park and was very disappointed with the quality of finish and materials used, honestly those houses are not worthy the price tag. The artistic impression is far from the reality, too many breakages insider and houses have not been occupied, poor choice of colours , tiny rooms, crooked walls among other defects...it's just not worth it paying 12m for a studio or the 27m for a three bedroom... Though the structure looks nice from Mombasa road but get inside and see the workmanship it's disappointing, if you know what quality means or the worthy of 12 to 27m in terms of what you can do with it .

12m for a studio? With 12m i'd buy a plot at syokimau at 2m and use 8m to put up a 5bdr maisonette plus a 1 bdrm servant quarter, and the remaining 2m to buy a 2006 Toyota Rav 4!

and then the bulldozers come knocking claiming you are on some flightpath or bypass. also you may buy land only to realise it has issues .This is the hardchoice facing buyers do i buy or build .Which has more risks?

@Chaka that's the very place I was and was taken round the 2 second floor, through a studio, 1 bedroom 2 bedroom deluxe and 3 bedroom units. If that's what you call quality then, I give up after seeing and you claim thats quality then i understand you. Should even see the kitchen door to the kitchen balcony is a proper jua Kali made and from a trainee chap, the lamp holders are those that sell at 50 to 100 bob and by the way things are falling apart mirrors in most of the rooms are broken...issues with quality I wish I took pictures. Personally I cant buy the 3 bedroom unit above 4m, nextgen failed on fittings it's a very shoddy job done, and I repeat its shoddy, please visit again with an open mind and you will see for yourself. The attendant told me some of the buyers who bought off plan have opted for their own fittings.

Instead of buying a 3 bedroom in Nextgen estate or whatever it is called at 27m,I can get half an acre opposite Hillcrest in Karen at 15m,use 7m to construct a 5 bedroom house with guest wing and SQ for 2,the balance of 5m is enough to furnish the house to Karen standards while on Nextgen you just have the apartment and neighbours with loud music,those that don't pay service fees,dirty stairs and a myriad of problems.

@Jaggernaut. You said it. This Apartment thing and craze with Kenyans is one that I will never understand. How on earth do you spend 12Million, worse still 27Million to live on the 7th Floor of an apartment on a major highway?? And call that a home? How do you bring up Kids, where do they play? I have said here before (and got a hail of Insults) and I say it again that that is a house but not a home. Why not go to Kikuyu, Kitengela, Juja, Past Ruai etc, buy a spacious piece of land cheaply, that allows enough space for Kids to play - and have spare Money to built a Proper House. My Description of a home: You Invite wazuans for Mbuzi, ladies can gossip (due respect)at a far Corner, men have Drinks and Choma at the other far end while Kids play 100 metres away in airy Compound full of trees...
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..
