About Me

Born on 4th September 1984 in Kenya being 7th born in a family of 10 children. Attended Sendera primary school in Bungoma County Mt Elgon District in the border between Kenya and Uganda. Went to Kisumu Day High School and later on joined Strathmore university where i did diploma in micro finance and currently pursuing degree in business management.

I paid my college fee alone by washing cars and carpets. I worked in a real estate firm selling plots, doing property management and debt collection so i learnt the techniques and decided to start my own real estate firm.

Mount Elgon is an extinct shield volcano on the border of Uganda and Kenya, north of Kisumu and west of Kitale. The mountain's highest point, named "Wagagai", is located entirely within Uganda. My children want to be serious businessmen and women in future and have always encouraged them to follow their dreams.
My favorite hobbies reading and researching in my area of specialization as well as other related areas in order to prepare myself for future opportunities and challenges.

My Business

Property management firm which entails sales and letting

Property managers are experienced in the business and are, therefore, better able to deal with wayward tenants as well as ensure that any necessary repairs are done quickly. Since property agencies know how rents within a region compare, we usually suggest optimum rental pricing for maximum tenant profit and tenant retention.

Property management firms are easy to manage and has higher returns as compared to other businesses. Also it needs small capital to start.
marketing costs
commission on rent collection, sales and letting
reinvestment in growing the business

    Printing machine.
    It helped me to reduce expenses incurred by the business in outsourcing printing services.
    It has increased customer satisfaction because of confidentiality of customers documents and made my work easier and efficient since i no longer need to run outside the office to print documents.
    it has increased my revenue by 2%.
    To pay my children school fess, cater for other family needs and plough back the rest to the business.
    It has improved our living standards as a family since we can now afford decent shelter,clothing and food for our family as a result of increased profits.

    Printing machine
    It has made my work easier, effective and confidential since most of my operations are supposed to be confidential.
    it has increased by almost 5% since most of the printing work was being done outside and payable at Ksh 10 per page considering that my work entails a lot of paper work so i use to spend a lot of money on printing.
    In marketing my company so as to attract new and retain customers
    I must say that our living standards have greatly improved.
