Find 2 other people with a similar need and rent a 3brm apartment in Lavington at 90k and share the rent i.e 30k each. Then each takes a bedroom and you share the kitchen, sitting room, dining room, bathroom. That's how people survive in Europe and North America.

why would anyone pay a rent of 30k? there are very good houses in other places he can get for half the price. he has to be earning 150-300k on the net to pay that amt.

He said he wants to live somewhere he can walk to work (in Lavington), and he says Kawangware is a no no.

@Wilyum,
& avoid Uthiru/Kinoo area for your own good if you work late... ngeta,car jackings (out of experience),house swept clean stories abound. Try Amboseli Rd,after James Gichuru/Gitanga Rd T-Junc. or Hatheru Rd opposite if u love some peace & quietness.

Even in DXB. But for it to work here? a very tough contract must be agreed to and signed by the interested parties.
I think I would be comfortable in my OWN 5 k bedsitter.
