Hello members,
I am looking to build a few rental houses on a plot I have, and for this, I have two questions:

1.Which is the best bank/Sacco for borrowing for this purpose? Right now, am not a member of any SACCO.

2. I need to invest some money also in the best deposit bank/institution in Kenya..any ideas which has the best interest rates?

Welcome to wazua...

SACCOs charge around 12%pa... but you need to have been a member for at least 6 months and you also need to know other members to guarantee your loan. Generally you'll get three time your investment and pay back in 36 months.

Money-market funds operated by Unit Trusts offer quite decent returns - some even higher that CBK's T-bills. Most insurance companies have them so pick up the phone and start calling. Also check the business pages of daily newspapers [the page where stocks are listed] to see which MMF has the highest rate.

The best Sacco changes from one person to the other reason being that where u know most people who can guarantee your loans would be the best Sacco to join. As for who is offering the best interest rates, I have seen Wazuans talking about DTB or small banks eg I & M, Family, Fina it may be a good idea to also consider avenues eg Unit trust like @Chiascuro has mentioned.

Thanks all for the guidance...however @ Thiong'o, NHC does not loan people money to build houses for rental houses. They seem to be more concerned with owner occupied housing.

Any other ideas will be appreciated.
