Syokimau or Utawala...1 bedroom Budget 20k

Niaje wadau na wadauress

I intend to relocate from outer ring in March.

I’m yet to decide kama nihamie Syokimau or Utawala…
Hustle iko around Cabanas area, so distance is more less the same.

I’m targeting a 1 bedroom rent ichezee hapo 18-22K.

Thoughts?

Is it your own hustle ama wewe ni mwajiriwo?

Mimi ni mwajiriwo. Mimi ni funda ya serikali

Tu side hustle mainly hua online. As long as niko na laptop na net location haimatter sana.

Utawala 18K ni 2Bedroom, Unless you are looking for Executive apartments

Why can stay pahali uko, if the rent is cheaper, save up or take a loan and invest in a plot pale kamulu and build your own home?
Kazi huisha

I agree.

But I’d rather pay for a classy 1 bedroom or even a studio apartment, rather than a plain 2br house. I’m not after space but the quality of the units.

kazi huisha gathee kama unatafuta executive jenga kwako uitengeneze vile unataka

Nunua RV vehicle ukuwe Una ishi Kwa gari. You just park Kwa petro station.

I get you.

Sai kujenga a ‘home’ in Kamulu/joska/kitengela/ruiru etc beats logic since I don’t intend to stay in Nairobi for long. I had thought of purchasing an apartment instead, but it doesn’t give value for money.

I plan to settle near my home county. Huko nilishasecure a ka very nice and sizeable plot and it is less than 20km from the town’s CBD. Fenced and secured. KeNHA pia naona wameamua kucheza kama wao hio maeneo.

Job ikiisha sai as i’m typing all I have to do is to request a withdrawal from MMF and by Friday 11:30 am nitakua site kujenga ka shanty na kuendelea life.

Lastly, I capped my rent at 20k juu annual interest napata from MMF na Sacco combined can sustain that including a few bills here and there.

I don’t know whether this makes sense.

This idea is hilarious but is actually feasible.

I like this…tuelimishane unatumia Mmf na sacco gani

Hizi RV ni za matajiri.

Bei ya Class C au hata B imetosha ununue ploti na ujenge a decent 2br house bila kuishi ka squatter.

:D:D:D:D:D…there is nothing “executive” east of University of Nairobi

MMF i still trust ya CIC. Though it doesn’t offer the highest interest rate kwa soko.

For SACCO currently niko ya Job tu. Also not the best, but at least I know the ins and outs of its operation.
Ua natamani kuhamia akina stima sacco but huko sijuani. Nikiwahi taka loan nitakosa guarantors.

I documented my MMF journey in 2021. Check the thread below.

Why are so many people fascinated with buying a plot in Kamulu?

Saa zingine hii kukosa kuhama pahali ati juu rent ni cheaper sio poa.

You can limit your potential by saying “mimi siwezi lipa rent ya pesa flani”. What you should be asking for instead is to make a higher income until the rent doesn’t make a dent in your pocket.

The fact that your average Kenyan is convinced that everyone should own a house given a certain circumstance points out to the reason there are more people that are easily conned in real estate deals. Doesn’t have to be a deal in Gakuyo/ Lesedi nature, your average Kenyan will buy a plot at 3m when its actual value is half of that same amount or even lower.

Nilijua tu ungetokea…

We hujui venye mse akihama pipeline aende Fedha ua inakua ni sherehe kubwa sana. Yet amecross tu barabara:D:D:D:D:D.

Plus Syokimau kuna apartment kama Indesign Makumbi Park. It has better units than 60% of those you’ll find in Kileleshwa and Kilimani. Yet sai 1 bedroom ni 27K pekee (Nangoja kuona ka rent itashukishwa ndo peasants tuingie na Fujo)

Tuache sisi watu wa Eastlando tusherekee…
