I just returned to the Netherlands after an intense two-week deep dive into Kenya’s business and real estate scene. In that time, I toured over 15 real estate projects, met more than 20 ambitious business owners, and even managed to sneak in a trip to the legendary Maasai Mara safari.
I expected this trip to be productive, but it turned out to be so much more—eye-opening, energizing, and deeply fulfilling. Kenya and its people left such a strong impression on me that I know for sure: I’m coming back, and often.
I have so much to share that one blog isn’t enough, so I’ve broken it down into three must-read parts:
📌 Part 1: The Stereotypes I Had About Kenya—And How Completely Wrong
Let’s be honest—many of us have preconceived ideas about Africa or Kenya. I sure did. But this trip shattered them all. If you think you know Kenya, think again.
🏡 Part 2: Nairobi Real Estate Investment 2025: How I Bought 2 High-ROI Apartments for Under $150K
Nairobi’s real estate market is booming, but is it a smart investment? I break down:
✅ Demand trends & oversupply risks
✅ Pricing dynamics & currency fluctuations
✅ The real challenges investors face—from construction quality to legal frameworks
I also share my strategy for maximizing returns—including why I decided to buy an entire floor in a mid-market development.
🚫 Part 3: Nairobi Real Estate Investment Risks (2025): What Every Investor Must Know
Nairobi’s real estate market has huge potential, but it’s not without risks. Before jumping in, here’s what investors need to know:
❌ Oversupply concerns—Luxury developments are popping up fast, but is there enough demand?
❌ Unfinished projects & poor construction quality—How to avoid bad investments.
❌ Water shortages & infrastructure gaps—Hidden costs that impact rental yields.
❌ Currency devaluation & rising debt—How Kenya’s economy affects real estate returns.
Despite these risks, I’m still bullish on Nairobi—and I explain how I’m mitigating these challenges to make my investment work.
