You can't write Kangundo and Loitokitok in same statement. it is 286 KM from Nairobi City.

What do they mean by 45 years sublease?

After 45 years what happens to my kids?

But in law, the current occupant will be given first priority to place a bid

Low end housing ndiyo hiyo sasa. Pipu, Nai. This is how ALL of Nai will look like in 30 years time. Kile and Lavi inclusive I passed the AHP on Park road and just SMH in amazement. Looks shiny, but check back in ten years. It will be a disaster. Too many people in too many tiny spaces in one building. That's why we keep saying DC is the future. In Jewel in the Crown, for example, the defining line is "the bridge." Once you cross it you are in middle class suburbs that are controlled and will never turn to urban slums in the next 50 years why?

1) Most people love being "close to Nairobi" because they think the universe revolves around Nairobi CBD. Hustlers pia always walk towards town searching for jobs, not away from it, so these suburbs of DC will never experience demand for pipu style high rise flats. Instead, as has been happening the past twenty years, the middle classes will flood OUT of Nai core into DC burbs; for space, comfort and peace of mind.

2) One needs a reliable car to commute to and from these burbs meaning they are doomed to remaining for the middle and upper classes.

3) As opposed to places like Lavi where nyumbas were moja moja and not in gated communities, the gated communities concept keeps expanding (due to security concerns) which means the model will keep multiplying in DC well into the foreseeable future. The large tracts of open land make this possible. Once a community is gated it is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to turn it into anything else as there will always be dissenting voices who will shoot down the idea of introducing flats, for example into the gated community; since it has its rules and even elections of officials on a yearly basis. This is a beautiful ting oo!

4) The types of beautiful homes (mansions) coming up will not allow for future redevelopment even in 100 years. Think Runda and Muthaiga vs Kileleshwa. Runda and Muthaiga homes, for the most part are mansion bin mansions. A lot of effort thought, good memories of occupants and investment as gone into them. Tearing such down to build apartments is not sensible. In Kileleshwa they had tu-old ooooold tiny beberu colonial bungalows that have long been overtaken by time. It was inevitable that they would all be torn own for highrises to come up.

NIMESEMA!

Exactly! Imagine those who choose to buy in a cramped urban skyrise like this new one in Kilimani . A family consisting of dad, mum, 3 kids who will NEVER know what it feels like to ride a bike in the open winds! Then squeezing with strangers in the lift kila siku. And trying to suffer to slide your car in the tiny basement parking. Is that life? Give me my lawns and space and comfort and joy in DC over this a million times over any day!

Oops. Hadn't seen the question. Property prices are still suppressed especially commercial with low occupancy. However, residential is fairing better. Many new units being delivered in the market are now in the 1 bedroom and studio band. Affordable housing is a timely idea
