How well am I doing?

It's a stretch to go from "market is cooling off" to "he's making losses in his investments". I think there is still profit to be made but the scale is lower either due to less units moving or lower profit per unit. I agree we are not seeing a bubble in the typical sense but volume seems to be down. I wish someone would start publishing these statistics on a regular basis (based on closed sales, not listed properties) aemathenge wrote:Vj wrote:since the property market is cooling off Forgive me, if I am wrong, but I get the impression that you have made losses in your property market investments and therefore figure that anybody else not making such losses is, to quote your signature, "Young and Stupid" in believing they can make significant profits. According to the Cytonn Investments' weekly report, on the other hand, the huge gains attributed to investments in the property market are not a bubble but something else altogether. Extracts from the said report have this to say: Source Link:Quote:The key indicators of a bubble are:
i. More people taking on more debt.
However, in Kenya today, the key constraint is access to credit as the government is crowding out the private sector given the 2016 interests rate cap law.
For instance, mortgage accounts were reported to have decreased by 1.5% by December 2016 to 24,085 from 24,458 the same period in 2015,
ii. Relaxed lending standards.
Despite the Kenyan government lowering interests rates, institutions have tightened their credit supply to the private sector, especially for long-term loans such as mortgages, as evidenced by the slowdown in private sector credit growth, at 2.0% in October 2017 compared to 4.6% in October 2016 and 19.5% in October 2015,
iii. Historically low interest rates.
From our case studies, interest rates declined to below 7%. In Kenya, The Bank Amendment Act of 2015 capped bank lending rates to a maximum of 14.0%, which is 4% above the Central Bank Rate that has remained at 10% throughout 2017,
iv. High demand from high levels of speculation.
Unlike in a bubble where most of the demand is driven by speculators, in Kenyan the demand is driven by real demand, which is estimated to be at least 200,000 units p.a.
v. Incredible rise in house prices.
As is evidenced in our case studies, a housing bubble is characterized by most often than not, a triple digit growth in prices and as per the IMF standards, the decline in a bust must be at least 14% over a period of 16 quarters.
In Kenya however, the prices are growing, albeit softening, with 2016 recording an average appreciation rate of 7.4%, which slowed to 3.8% in 2017, as per the Cytonn Residential Report 2017.
From the above it is clear that the real estate sector in Kenya is not in a bubble based on the five indicators.
(Instead) The sector is experiencing the normal real estate cycles, and the rapid price increments being witnessed are a result of low supply and high demand.
Thus, it still presents attractive opportunities for investors.
In other words, you assert the property market is cooling off and proceed to accuse Cytonn of naivety while Cytonn Investments Analysts think otherwise and in fact take the opposite view. Please tell me I am wrong.

I agree we are not seeing a bubble in the typical sense but volume seems to be down. I wish someone would start publishing these statistics on a regular basis (based on closed sales, not listed properties) My point here is that there are two perceptions about the property market. On one hand, certain investors "still (have) profits to make but the scale is lower yada, yada, yada". On the other hand there is Cytonn Investments who perceive that the huge profits they are making within the property market is not a bubble per se but something else entirely. In other words, there are the losers and there is a winner. Should this be true, then shouldn't we be investing in Cytonn Investments to enjoy and profit from their perceived wizardly in this particular "lucrative" investment? Pray do tell.

Question is, should we be moaning about the losers without congratulating the winners and their investors? Copy and Paste Extract:Quote:The Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS) has released the Q3'2017 GDP Report, indicating that the Kenyan economy grew by 4.4% in Q3'2017, down from 5.6% in Q3'2016 on account of slower growth in most sectors due to political uncertainty that prevailed following the prolonged election period.
Growth in the agriculture, manufacturing and finance & insurance sectors declined to 3.1%, 2.1% and 2.4% from 3.8%, 4.4% and 7.1% in Q3'2016.
Key to note is that real estate sector growth improved to 8.9% from 8.5% recorded in Q3'2016.

FY2017 https://www.cytonn.com/u...ents-management-plc.pdf
Cashflow statement mjiandikie please, especially since they know 2016 was......... well  Case in Point,2016 Financials 1. Value of Investment property is 10,050,802,365 ...if you insist ,ok fine  2.The 10,050,802,365 is composed of all its properties values ( cost plus fair value gains plus capitalised costs etc)  3. Yet in their cash flow, they include all these. 10,050,802,365 MINUS 5,580,228,113 ..You don't use fair values to calculate cashflow !. Only cash used is factored, i.e they should have used purchase price only for properties acquired in 2016 Total 1,683,400,00. In short cashflow statement is wrong.  this is just an analysis of one line item... Anyway for those who can share the full financials from AGM tomorrow please do.
