If i had 21m i would not tie it for 120k monthly return,i have better ways to make atleast 500k with 21m monthly.

True. Some interesting math here, a 91 day t-bill @14.8% does pay more than 120k per month at the moment... Why hussle to buy the flat? At 21M with the current rental yield would take more than a decade to breakeven...

Even at 7% return from a Money Market Fund yields a better monthly return - not forgetting there are no operational costs!

Assuming a 75% occupancy rate,the return is a paltry 5% before the operational costs. It would take ages to recover the initial investment even after considering value of property appreciating.

The current Infrastructure bond offer would also yield much higher returns and an attractive redemption schedule....20M would give a discount of Kes 3.3mn and coupon of 200k every month....how much will that have earned you in four years?...net interest income of 9.6 mioDrool

@wanyuru - yes the infra bond has attractive returns. But I have a phobia of trusting the current central planners with my money for more than a year...
