@dunkang Do you get titles for that size of plot? Or how does co-owning work?

Proof of ownership?

I think these people are using the new technique for blocks not stones. They are much cheaper unlike stones...have been following a group called 'affordable construction' on facebook, and sure if whatever they are talking about is true, then owning a house will be much cheaper thank taking that mortgage, esp if u already have a ploti

@Meduza , for Suraya, I know they are using stone. And They get chinese contractors. Like their other projects.
But I know the scale is what makes it "make sense". Within a very small area, they are able to put up so many units...

[quote=dunkang]@webish, just travel to a place called zimmerman in a city called Nairobi. There, you will get plot agents who will show you sub-division plots (5m x 6.6m = 33m2) that range from 300k - 600k. From there, contribute 135k for foundation, then 200k for every completely complete floor.

So, for kes1.2m, and you took the 600k plot, you will be on second floor (i.e. 3No. 1 bedroom apartments). Since you are a millionaire and CAN NEVER stay there, rent out at 8k each, thats 24k p.m. The other 3 floors will build themselves.

Am speaking out of experience, mine is under construction just behind Home Depot supermarket, you can visit there and see it.


@dunkang..thats a very good idea. Such a pooling resources method presents the most economical method to invest in real estate in Kenya.

These guys here are looking for partners whom they can team up and realize/implement such a project.

@a4architect what if simeone has land around mlolongo an eigth and cabt manage to build...would this pulling of resources work for him so that he gets something small every end month or a lump some gain...


@maka. Simply start a topic with such a headline here and wait for other people to get interested in it. Your plot value will form your contribution. You will get units same as plot value contribution.

8k*12months = 96k

96k/900k = 12% approx.

8k is very conservative because I charge 9k for my SQ in south C!
