you see that thing

samorobo:
Don’t be fooled,ur Karen is only magnet to more corrupt Kenyatta’s in power and expat working in UN who have no choice but to settle for ur best which is Karen.... I hope u get it this time...

Mkenya2019:
Your useless opinion is not worth a warm bucket of spit.

The lush suburb of Karen has been ranked in the top ten Luxury home hotspots in the ‘Wealth report 2018’ by Knight Frank.

Karen, home to some of the high-flying figures in the country including playing host to official residence of Deputy President William Ruto, former prime minister Raila Odinga, former vice-president Kalonzo Musyoka, a large expatriate population, as well as wealthy Kenyans being among high-end home owners, is ranked in the league of the global real estates giants like Potsdamer Straße, Kurfürstenstraße and Gleisdreieck in Berlin, Germany and Sant’Ambrogio in Milan, Italy.

Excsue me, what is luxury about homes in Karen with pit lattries ?

I've never seen a luxury home with pit latrines that require ordinary kenyans fetching it with gallons at a daily wage

care to explain?

samorobo:
Lol I am seeing green,orange and red...what are they?day care kids or what?

they just lack the creativity to combine colours properly

samorobo:
@mtis this is ur roadless ruaka town ...This is were HNWI are supposed to stay...I told you this environ gives of poverty village feel.....This is the opposite of good ambiance as you can literally see poverty walking on the streets...

In fact this place is not remote or serene...it’s an extension of the hustle and bustle not to forget the madness and chaos in the city....people pay through their front teeth to experience this low life madness..

typically kenya

samorobo:
Lol imagine paying million of U.S dollar for this nonsense in Karen...extremely basic architecture that could look better with so much as a brush of paint...pls show me the luxury...

with Terrible colour combination

Baliv254:
gh vision 2090

This screams of un-development

Good Kenya is following Ghana development plan

At least it will help your country.

At least your communities can try to look more like Ghana of 1960s and they will be more better than they are today.

mtisQ:
An i thought that was a photo of Nairobi of 1980's...bro that era nairobi was nothing...

And I thought Kenya was going to choose it own development path instead of always following Ghana..

So the document is showing how not to be undeveloped as Nairobi

mtisQ:
Thanks Just30..then you shouldnt deny ths..

Do you even know what that is?

It's the development plan that your country just adopted and will be launching on the 26th of this month.

As kenya vision 2030

mostly he is

but this is diversionary

Does Kenya have a community this neatly laid out and demarcated?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVhpbwJ_HPA&t=318s

mtisQ:
Question just30..is your president factual in most of what he says ?

Thats just fact, you dont need to fight it

mtisQ:
I won't fight with you as a Ghanaian...your vision of things is well established.

Runda comes to mind

Muthiaga also looks abandoned

samorobo:
Karen properties comes to mind...looks haunted and creepy...

If you were rich in Ghana, you wouldn't need to rent or buy in Ghana because you would easily be able to build you own custom house like most people prefer

unfortunately, in Kenya, having a roof over your head is a luxury.

gallivant:
If I was rich I wouldn't buy or rent in Ghana because I have a conscience not to be swindled out of six months deposit in advance. I know my human rights for a roof over my head.

mtisQ:
You think Billionaire$$ will travel an buy cheap stuff bro...That should tell you something...

Your properties are usually cheap with terrible finishing

so high earn folks are buying underwhelming stuff in your country?

mtisQ:
well most west africa real estate is underwhelming ..just saying...say what ya wann say about Kenya but there is a reason why high end folks are buying stuff here..

Now you are claming a street to be a driveway

rvp2018:
That is driveway under construction in the next plot.

mtisQ:
Your reggae painted city buildings an stuff..plus your zebra crossing reggae township

Is there something like that?

Another Tiny semi detached nonsense with no roads or drains

Cant you guy learn to build decent stuff?

rvp2018:
Crap West Africa can never compare to Nairobi. Kyuna estate Nairobi


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E3Sr7RwmJVs

mtisQ:
Hope ya not talking about those lego cities mate

which one is?

samorobo:
No offense Dude but ur Runda or Karen looks like a typical poverty cow roaming village with depressing design. The only thing you gat going is those greenery but then again they’ve been left unattended to and made the whole neighborhood look desolate and derelict.

Basic semi detached houses as usual

NTSA:
i guess you are wrong.
1 .green park Athi River Machakos county
2.Thika greens estate Thika ,Kiambu county
3.Vipingo kilifi
4.Bahati ridge Muranga county

all of which are just tiny neighbourhoods with less than 50 houses

Vipingo is just a short stay hotel.

samorobo:
Why am I more white folks on the horse than black folks....or is this a white only neighborhood? I mean the likes of Runda.

NTSA:
we also have our on share of accra type of concrete jungles but no one considers them posh or affluent

Except Accra does not have concrete jungles but plush residential areas that are well built.

the concrete jungles in your country are just too many.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOr9rxOU8ew

gallivant:
You are insane. Do you expect me to post all the neighborhoods in Kenya? There is no point in comparing. Kenya is Ghana's economic and social blueprint, as it should be.

Yet all you blue print from economic development, social development, infrastructure development all comes from Ghana.


If you want to compare your country tiny development to Ghana, you must be able to post every part of your country..

I can post almost all parts of my country because they are mostly developed areas....


At least we agree on something that there is no point in comparing because Kenya has very little development.

classy indeed with no roads

That is why I posted an upcoming area in Kumasi that is more massive with better classy houses and their roads and drains are done.

NTSA:
He posted high grove village lower kabete an upcoming area. which is still more classy than what you have in the entire Ghana.

gallivant:
I wasn't comparing, just showed you a potion of ambience. To compare is to put little Ghana on a equal pedestal. Kenya of today is Ghana of 2100 AD.

Why will any sane person even think of comparing kenya small things to big things in Ghana...

rvp posted a 24 house are to compare to a 2,000 house community

Here you are comparing a 50 house roadless small area to a 2,000 house community..

dont you guys have shame?


Your kenya will keep being in Ghana shadows


I can see, your country is trying to launch a development plan....That will be good for you when you finally do.

Ghana has had several which have all worked out great for Ghana.

gallivant:
Concrete slums. Enjoy some ambience...


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwrP0H_hkoU

Less than 50 houses, that cant be compared to over 2000 in Kumasi small area.... again no roads, no drains.

Thats too small for your jungle of 57 million people.

Anyway, I'm not surprised since only 16% of properties in your country can be considered.

Hello Kenyans


How is your vision 2030 launch going?


It is good to see you guys learning from Ghana

Having a development plan is the right thing to do

rvp2018:
Concrete slums like Nairobi Eastland.

If this is concrete slum, i wonder what mutiaga will be called...



should I say mud villages since 51% of properties in Kenya a mud properties

gallivant:
That's not a good thing. The average Ghanaian must be living in squalor.

The average Ghanaian is living in better properties...


Yes that is not a good thing

In the UK, Landlords ask for 6 months and above rent advance anytime they want....

It is security to both the tenant and the landlord.

gallivant:
It's not a culture. It's simple economics and a lack of basic rules when the landlords are operating like a mafia. Nowhere else in the civilized world do people have to fork up six months rent in advance. Not even in Somalia.

rvp2018:
What a decent street video? You mean you want to see houses, concrete and all that from streets...in upper class residence. Why dont you try say South Africa's Joburg if say London is too much for you.

Upper class residence in kenya looks like a forest until you take a drone - if they allow - and you will see palatial houses.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Df6vSyCN5Uo

I wonder how 24 houses will compare to over 2,000 in a small area of Kumasi.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-odhCQ3ve0
Those are small compared to what you will have in Kumasi and guess what, they have decent streets.


Your upper class residences will only pass for a lower to middle class residence here and they are more palatial

There is no shaortage ....its just the culture, owners want long term contracts.

6 months is security..... expensive means monthly rents are far above New York average,

Owning homes is only a miracle in Kenya, Here in Ghana, even the poorest person can get to own a home.

gallivant:
Six months advance just rent is not expensive, it's a major shortage of units. Owning a home in Ghana must be a miracle in itself!
