They say the three most important things in real estate are location, location, location. That hasn’t changed.
Location affects your daily life (commute, schools, safety), your property’s value over time, and how easy it is to rent or sell later. In Nairobi and its suburbs, areas like Karen, Westlands, Kilimani, and Lavington continue to attract strong interest because of infrastructure, security, and amenities.
When comparing properties, weigh location as heavily as the building itself. A well-located, smaller unit often outperforms a larger one in a less desirable area.
