A Wildlife Sanctuary Next Door and a 9% Home Loan to Get You In. From KES 6.1M in Tatu City. A 1-bedroom apartment — 45 sqm — in a 600-residence community on 11 acres within Tatu City, built by one of the city's most prolific residential developers. The development adjoins a 160-acre wildlife sanctuary — giraffes, zebras, and birdlife as permanent neighbours. Swimming pool, gym, onsite food court, children's play area, CCTV security, backup generator, and dedicated parking — all within the compound. This is not a speculative purchase. This is a development where 98% of completed units are occupied — a rental occupancy figure that is not a projection, not a target, and not a marketing estimate. It is the actual number, built over three delivery phases: Row A handed over October 2024 at 94% occupancy. Row B handed over August 2025 at 96%. The development now sits at 98%. The demand is not theoretical. The demand is measured, proven, and still climbing. At KES 6.1M with KMRC-eligible 9% fixed-rate home loans (25-year term, up to 105% financing through KCB), this is the most accessible entry point into a proven rental asset in Tatu City. Cash discounts available. 24-month payment plans available. 98% Occupancy: Why the Number That Matters Most Is the One Most Developments Cannot Produce Most developments sell you a yield projection. This one hands you an occupancy receipt. The difference between a projected yield and a proven one is the difference between a spreadsheet and a bank statement. Every residential development in Nairobi can promise 8% or 10% or 12% on a brochure. Very few can point to 600 residences and say: 98% of them have tenants paying rent right now. The occupancy built in phases — which makes it more credible, not less. Row A was handed over in October 2024 and hit 94% occupancy. Row B followed in August 2025 at 96%. The trajectory is upward. The 98% figure is not a single snapshot — it is the result of sustained tenant demand across multiple handover cycles. Each phase filled faster than the last. The 1-bedroom format is the demand sweet spot. This is the only development in the builder's portfolio dedicated entirely to 1-bedroom apartments. The decision to build 600 units of a single typology was not arbitrary — it was a response to the tenant profile that Tatu City generates: young professionals working in the Tatu Industrial Park (SEZ), Crawford International School staff, and the growing population of the 25,000-person masterplan who need well-specified, well-managed rental housing at an accessible price point. The 1-bedroom is the format that fills first, stays occupied longest, and turns over fastest. How 45 sqm Lives The living and dining area is open-plan and oriented for natural light — the design philosophy across the development prioritises daylight penetration, reducing the reliance on artificial lighting and keeping the apartment airy throughout the day. The kitchen features a breakfast bar and granite worktops — the specification that elevates the daily routine and that tenants notice when they compare apartments at this price point. An extractor hood is fitted as standard. The kitchen is a workspace, not an afterthought. The bedroom is a proper room with wardrobe provisions and proportions that accommodate a double bed with clearance — the room that makes a 1-bedroom a home rather than a studio with a partition. The bathroom is finished with porcelain tiles — the durability and finish quality that holds up under tenant use and that distinguishes this specification from the painted-wall, basic-tile bathrooms common at this price point. The dedicated utility room is a separate space for the washing machine — not crammed into the kitchen, not sharing the bathroom. At 45 sqm and at KES 6.1M, a dedicated utility room is a provision that competitors at this price point simply do not offer. The glass balcony opens the apartment to the Tatu City landscape and, for sanctuary-facing units, to the wildlife that defines the development's setting. A 100-litre solar water heater is installed — reducing the electricity bill from day one. The security specification includes an 85 kg security door and smoke alarms as standard — the safety infrastructure that a managed, institutional-grade development provides. The Community 600 residences on 11 acres — the density is managed, the landscaping is generous, and the community has the population to sustain its amenities without the ghost-town problem that smaller developments face. Swimming pool — the leisure centrepiece of the community, available to all residents. Gym — fitness facilities within the compound. No external membership required. Onsite food court — dining and social infrastructure within the development. The convenience that eliminates the drive and that tenants value when choosing between comparable apartments. Children's play area — family-friendly facilities integrated into the community. CCTV security — surveillance coverage across the development, complementing Tatu City's own security infrastructure. Backup generator — power continuity that protects the lifestyle and the tenant's willingness to pay premium rent. Street lighting — the illumination that makes the community walkable and safe after dark. Dedicated parking — one space per unit, included in the purchase price. The Tatu City Ecosystem Tatu City is 5,000 acres of master-planned community developed by Rendeavour — 17 years building new cities across Africa. Infrastructure from day one: roads, water, power, ICT, security, landscaping. 25,000 people living, working, and learning in the community. 100+ businesses. Crawford International School. Restaurants, banks, retail, medical centre, co-working spaces, Tatu Industrial Park (SEZ). The development is 5 minutes from Thika Highway — the arterial connection to Nairobi. 30 minutes to Nairobi CBD. 35 minutes to JKIA. The Investment Case Starting price: KES 6.1M. The development launched at KES 4.5M in January 2022. The current price of KES 6.1M represents 35% capital appreciation in under four years — and Row C (the final phase, completing Q2 2026) is the last opportunity to buy at the current price before the development is fully delivered and the market sets the resale value. 98% occupancy delivers real, bankable yield: Unfurnished rental: KES 55,000/month (estimated) Annual income: KES 660,000 Gross yield: 11% Furnished rental: KES 80,000/month (estimated) Annual income: KES 960,000 Gross yield: 16% The yield is not a hope — it is underwritten by the 98% occupancy figure. When 98% of 600 units are tenanted, the rental demand is not a question. It is an answer. KMRC 9% fixed-rate home loan available — 25-year term through KCB, with up to 105% financing (covering purchase price plus associated costs). For the first-time investor or the salaried buyer, this is the financing structure that makes property ownership possible without a lump-sum cash requirement. The monthly mortgage payment on a KES 6.1M apartment at 9% over 25 years is approximately KES 51,000/month — and the unfurnished rental income covers it. The arithmetic is simple: buy on a KMRC loan, let the tenant pay the mortgage, own the asset outright in 25 years. At 98% occupancy, the tenant is almost certainly there. Foreign ownership permitted — leasehold tenure, no local partner required. The 160-Acre Wildlife Sanctuary The development adjoins a 160-acre wildlife sanctuary within the Tatu City masterplan — a conservation area with giraffes, zebras, and diverse birdlife. The sanctuary is not a park, not a buffer zone, and not a temporary green space awaiting development. It is a conservation commitment — the land is protected, the animals are managed, and the views it provides are permanent. For the owner-occupier, the sanctuary is a lifestyle asset. For the investor, it is a scarcity premium — the feature that differentiates this development from every other 1-bedroom apartment in the KES 6M price range and that justifies rental rates above the Tatu City baseline.
