Nice work. Are you using matofali for internal walls?

Cheers. Yes. All non-load bearing walls are brick

Inspiring progress..I took the plunge after years of dreaming & planning on 20th May, 2017. Building a two storey apartment block composed of six 3 bedroomed units.. Taken a well deserved break (went broke) after walling & partitioning the ground floor.

I distinctly remember the palpitations I suffered thanks to cost overruns caused by challenging ground conditions. There I was peering into the extensive foundation trenches wondering what had I gotten myself into.... However it is so worth it. Determined to finish this project.... The hardest part was starting.

Your plan was to sell or rent?

I have a couple of questions on low cost/affordable housing.
This is not entirely low cost housing but what is the profit a developer is expecting from a project like this in Milimani Kitegela? Assuming the plot is 1M and the build is 4.5M the profit should be 2.0M (offered for sale at 6.5M). Is this what people are clearing?
And at this price range, how long are developers waiting to clear the houses?
