This kind of business is what's driving residential property prices sky high and leaving people homeless. We should not let this greed come to Kenya.

You should be smart to move with the ever Changing world. People can't always be poor, you have to be smart and work to improve yourself. No one cares if you are poor or not. People with money will always bring good things to themselves. IF YOU CAN'T BEAT THEM JOIN THEM.

Housing should not be an investment this doesn’t end well anywhere

[@Kittygacha_playz]

Housing IS an investment. And housing is a major industry in most major economies.

@@Kittygacha_playz go study major economies and see how housing is doing. california for instance has over 100k homeless people -- and if it was alone california would be the 5th largest economy. housing isn't an industry per se -- its more like a service, and housing markets can crash catastrophically. look up the 2007-2008 mortgage and financial crisis. or the asian financial crisis in the early 2000s.

[@DerickKamura]

The East African real estate sector is attracting global investment due to its potential for growth and the opportunity for local and international investors to invest in a portfolio of investment grade assets.

[@sashagaths7552]

Very true, and the sooner we embrace this reality and effort the better the quality of our lives moving forward. We can no longer afford to proverbially "ostrich" our heads in the sand.

[@lilacer6841]

[@iseektruth64]

Excuse my ignorance...but what is a "REET"? These conversations are fascinating, but remember that not all your audience are industry insiders. Please explain the industry shorthand...Thanks!

[@annaogusini7904]

Good conversation

[@user-ns7dj1lo3r]

I don't think so.

[@africanqueenmo]

Knight Frank is single-handedly responsible for making real estate in Kenyan cities the most unaffordable in the continent and most expensive. It's the worst real estate company in Kenya. It has absolutely no benefit to regular Kenyans

[@lilacer6841]

Soon you will have homelessness all over Kenya. Ord9nary prople will be priced out of land and homes. Be careful whar you sign up for
