How much was the phase three? Were you within 600m? Surething wrote:webish wrote:Tara wrote:Any updates on this project? Quite eager as well.  Was immensely encouraged by @pennystocker's previous project to finally take the plunge this year with a two storey 6 unit apartment block (3 bedroom, 2 Bath) on part of half an acre in one of the county headquarters in western kenya. Plan approval at the county just completed after an inordinately long wait, now on to NEMA then NCA. Hoping to break ground in early January. Meanwhile been keeping myself busy: fenced,built a pit latrine, put in a water & three phase electricity connection, built a tank base and installed a 10k litre tank, built a septic tank, soak pit and store..... Currently manufacturing cement blocks on site and tending to the landscape in areas not being affected by building works and planning to sink a shallow well to supplement the irregular kanjo supply to the 10,000 litre tank which will be of immense benefit when construction commences. Having done the math, these days I just shake my head when I see people forking out 10's of millions for a single not particularly well done unit. The Governor of Nyeri - 2017

I am within the 600 meter range but the line was abit far as in four poles and many complications regarding wayleaves so cost me 140k.

MaichBlack wrote:@Penny-Stocker  Good job bro. I also have a plan to do rentals at some point (Cash only. No mortgage!) and you will definitely be one of the people I will be talking to before embarking on the project. Nothing beats hands on experience! And there is no better advice than from someone with no vested interests.All the best in your next project. I am sure this one will be much smoother - with all the acquired experience! Nothing beats hands on experience! And there is no better advice than from someone with no vested interests. .... So penny-stocker should do Volunteer work because you don't want to pay for advice?? Advice that has no cost usually has no value! Lima jamaa!

I rent them out. My seed capital was a second mortgage on my house....which I paid off soon after. [/quote]
I am here in US too about to undertake a project in Ndori in May and i don't even know where to start.
Email me on ayietac@yahoo.com,we exchange numbers we talk yawa!,seeing is believing and that project you did in Mamboleo is amazing,i will truly appreciate.βAn asset is something that puts money in my pocket. A liability is something that takes money out of my pocket.β

2017 is gone.  Hopefully @Penny-Stocker will give us an Update on this Project this year.
Life is joy, death is peace, but the transition is very difficult.
