The person selling it to me has given me the following pitch; "Blessed Gardens is a good investment for an investor looking for longterm investments say 4 to five years. The land is very prime for someone who want to hide money for the future. We have Hass consult who also bought land for construction of houses, we also have Home Africa in the area. These are big boys and i am sure they have seen the potential as we have seen" What say you?

Kantafu is around 45 to 50 km form nairobi cbd. 5.8km off the main road in Kantafu is quite deep. Unless the land is for agricultural purposes as opposed to real estate, then the price is too high. Agricultural land price per acre in Brazil costs kes 70k and in USA costs kes 1m. The kantafu land per acre costs kes 1.2m. http://www.aljazeera.com...012913112137744956.html

"I can buy a lot more land down here with a lot less money," Corzine said. "For example, a 5,000-acre track of farm pasture with sufficient rainfall for soybeans is hard to find for sale in the US right now. And that is what I have down here in Brazil, and there is a lot more of it available here. So it's price and availability that drives what we are doing." http://www.agbrazil.com/...ntier_land_for_sale.htm

Can Brazilian cerrado land really be bought for US$500/ha (US$200 per acre)? Yes, absolutely. Millions of hectares of Brazilian cerrado land can be bought for the equivalent of $500/ha. But is this land any good? Is it accessible? Can one get financing? Can one get secure title? The answer to these questions is a qualified As Iron Sharpens Iron, So one Man Sharpens Another.

You might need to recheck your sources or else i do. The land touching Kangundo Rd is going for around 2.2mn per acre 5.8km in from main road around Kantafu towards Kyanzavi, the price should be between 175k and 250k depending on how close the parcel is to the road running from helicopter place [on Kangundo Rd] There is word of a road to link Matuu/Kisukioni to Kangundo road. Matuu is the Hqs of Matungulu sub-district.

Looking at start question (395k per 1/8) the @4architect says it's high....... now what isssss?? Everybody STEALS, a THIEF is one who's CAUGHT stealing something of LITTLE VALUE. !!!

My deduction from this is the price is too high for the area. Moving on...I actually have been bit vy the stock bug although it's driving me crazy where to start...co-op, safcom..etc. I've visited all the threads and I'm dizzy...

@chumsquest, welcome. Its unfortunate that land in kenya is more expensive than in developed nation, largely due to poor land laws that allow for idle land/speculation. A good solution to invest in real estate would be through REITs whereby each shilling begins to earn value a few years after investment as compared to buying land in the middle of nowhere eg Konza for alot of money. As Iron Sharpens Iron, So one Man Sharpens Another.

The estate is called Casa Mia and 4 bed-room houses going for 5.5M. Instead of buying in Kantafu, look around Mutalia, it would be much cheaper. 1/8 should cost around 300k abt 2km from the tarmac, although most plots here are 40X80. The area you mean in Kantafu should be cheaper, but way too far off.
