Constructing simple rental houses in low income area. We have started the project in area called Njiru along Kangundo road East side of Nairobi.

Making housing affordable and accessible requires creative solutions.

materials has to be fresh concrete, it's sturdy, cheap, and a chic enough for a sophisticated home that adores a bit of charm.

Salary from my employment. I work as a hotelier at Villa Rosa Kempinski. During my free time I engage in the construction where I have bought a piece of land with my wife and already started construction. We have calculated and foresee a 50-60,% return on investment.

After the success of this project I will extend to other low income area around Nairobi and it's outskirts.

a housing market that accommodates people with low-income should be a priority for Kenya’s policy makers.

Success on this front has, however, remained elusive. Escalating land prices has put housing nowhere within reach for low-income earners.

Repay other loans that I used to complete the project. The project is now viable. Because I now collect rental income.
