@Mugundaman kindly take time also analyse several factors, to my knowledge I still believe its waaay better to build your home on a plot in controlled estates i.e. Kiambu as @sparkly has put it than in dusty Kitengela.

Infact the worst thing is it costs the same amount. You will be amazed by the quality of life of some places. Wewe vuta tu Vuuuumbiii as unazeeka. Dustbowl Issa fat lie!!


he he he he AGAIN I ask, why are you worried about what wakina Mugundaman are doing even if it appears to be a "terrible decision" in your eyes? There are very nice controlled estates in dustbowl as well. Plus SGR corridor which will determine the future of Kenya for the next 150 years. Plus a way bigger upside that I will not get into for want of revealing trade secrets. It also costs the same amount to build in Runda as well but I do not see you using the same logic to tell us to all run to Runda and flee from Kiambu County! And this is not to say Kiambu County is a bad place to invest. Now if you guys are crying about kina Mugundaman in dustbowl, what will you say about their investments headed towards Lodwar, Isiolo and Marsabit where PURE DUST isLaughing out loudly ? For the umpteenth time kila mtu na sumu yake. There are risktakers and there are conservatives in investments..and never the twain shall meet. Live and let live.

Soon kitengela will be full as people continue to debate whether to buy in the dustbowl or not. Lucky are the ones who made the move earlier and got 1 acre, 1/2 and 1/4 acres kama hawa.






Even these ones on their 50x100 tuplotis are not late....

The good news is that there is still alot of tuplotis available in kitengela unlike in other areas neighbouring nairobi... So the time to take position (buy) in the dustbowl is now.

Good stuff hardwood. he he he he let sleeping dogs lie. Remember most of Nairobi CBD was once a flea and fly infested swampland that (was it Delamere?) had to drain. Some Kaburus saw it and said their brethren were crazy for wanting to settle in such a useless waterbowl. They fled to Uganda thinking it was a paradise. The rest is history. Nairobi has no peer north of the Limpopo.

Also with the kind of gated communities and developments coming up in kitengela, the dustbowl is the place to be. Much better than syokimau, rongai etc.

I like this, we recently collected funds along our access road had it graded, murrum and compacted plus a decent drain done, plus had all the street lights repaired,all for 150k which was only about 2,500 per person
sometimes we need to do it ourselves since if we wait for our taxes to trickle down we shall continue to live
in degrading environments.


Very true bro. Plus this increases everybody's property value so it is a win win for everybody including the government which is clearly overstretched in terms of having funds to pave every road in the country.

Fanisi Capital pumps 400m into dustbowl

https://www.businessdail...8416-14xmqaw/index.html

Funny how some say dust is the only mainstay of our beloved dustbowl. These companies do not just pump money ovyo ovyo without research. They know where the middle and upper middle classes are fanning into as they leave Nairobi core.

You left the urban core like Ngara for low income earners, students, hawkers, street urchins and whores.

Quote:
In the 80s, Ngara was a middle-class estate. It was clean, there was ample playgrounds and parking spaces and the sewerage system was working.

Ngara is now less appealing even to investors, as hundreds of hawkers crowd the streets, and kiosks and makeshift garages mushroom on access roads.

The estate has deteriorated as others located near the central business district such as Upper Hill, Parklands and Westlands sprout with skyscrapers. Property prices also have stagnated and a number of buildings are vacant.

The article says a 3 br house goes for as low as 15m in Ngara? No way that can be true. That would be a great bargain worth the long term risk!
