Not sure how these events they are organizing work for them..

This time, they invited us for a "Morning Coffee run" ... November 8th.
If i'm free, I will go and hear what they say during the talks afterwards...

Life is joy, death is peace, but the transition is very difficult.

Centum taking over Tatu City is a dream;they don't have the money and they are so much stretched in terms of the debt they have taken.
Two Rivers project they ceded 42% to the investor who pumped in $70mn and are now left with 58%.

I think once Centum complete Two Rivers, they will have shown that they have the capacity to undertake a world class mega project. The core competencies required to do a Tatu City would be in place. Financing should not be such a big problem for them; they don't have to fully own the project and they could do a REIT or raise money for that purpose.
There are very few Kenyan companies that have the capability to undertake such a project.
I hope the Tatu City land will not end up being subdivided into little plots to create another slum-like unplanned eyesore.

I think this is what going to happen. The land will be subdivided into plots and sold to individuals. It could be another Runda if handled properly.

The issue is who is willing to buy the project at hyper inflated prices.
that is what caused tatu to stall.Price of plots was over hyperinflated

People will buy, price for 1/4 is 7m which i think is cheaper considering the prices of nearby membley which is not seviced. I think what they need to do is to give time limit between buying plot and construction.

I think a 1/4acre residential plot at Tatu city at 7.5m is a very good deal.

I heard they ceded 62% to the Chinese contractor AVIC. Correct me if I am wrong

7.5M for a quarter is not bad.

however, there is fine print.
--You must build within 5 years, and you must choose one of their approved plans
--You'll be paying a service charge of 20k per month , after buying the plot, (someone is paying that same 20k for rent). However, 5year service charges have been included in the cost.

anyway, just wondering how successful they have been in selling the plots so far,
surprised they decided to employ an army of tweeps to promote tatucity on social media

In the world of securities, courage and patience become the supreme virtues after adequate knowledge and a tested judgment are at hand.
