Our view on KEZA Laika
KEZA Laika combines a strong Ruaka location with generous green space, practical shared facilities and modern apartment layouts. Groundworks have progressed well, but the main building structure has not advanced far enough to assess the overall delivery programme confidently. Read the full KEZA Laika review.
Our view on Cascadia
Blocks D and E have reached handover, allowing buyers to inspect completed homes and operating amenities, while Blocks A to C remain under construction. The setting and specification are strong, but the right decision depends heavily on the chosen block and its actual completion status. Read the full Cascadia Apartments review.
