Stamp duty is 4% here (4% within municipalities, 2% elsewhere), charged on the government valuation, which can be higher than the price. Service charge deposit, sinking fund, utility deposits and registration are usually paid later, at handover. Mortgage terms vary by bank, so get them directly from your bank.

Our view

Adidon verdict
Trusted developer, and the three-bedroom gives the best value per m².
Adidon

KEZA Laika is a Mi Vida apartment project in the Ruaka and Two Rivers corridor. Construction started in March 2026, with completion planned for March 2028.

The prices I found run from KES 5.9M for a 49.5 m² one-bedroom to KES 10.5M for a 102.3 m² three-bedroom, about KES 103,000 to KES 119,000 per m². The three-bedroom gives the best value per m². These figures come from a listing, not the developer.

The project includes botanical gardens with an orchard, outdoor co-working, a gym, residents' lounge, play area, borehole and backup power. The brochure payment plan is 30% upfront, 60% during construction and 10% on completion. Ruaka is convenient for Two Rivers, Gigiri and Westlands, but it's getting denser and traffic is heavy.

Before you pay16 checks to run before you commit any money: approvals, title, quality, progress, payment protection and the full cost. Includes 5 specific to KEZA Laika.

New to buying property? Start with the title, the approvals and the sale agreement. These protect your money most. Get an advocate to review the documents before you sign or pay a deposit.

  • Verify the approvals. Ask to see the relevant development and construction approvals, ownership or title documents, and any required permits. Have an independent advocate review them.
  • Review the consultants' reports. Request relevant reports and certifications from the project's architect, engineer and other appointed professionals.
  • Ask for quality-control evidence. Request approved material specifications and test results for items such as concrete, steel and soil, where applicable. Confirm these with the project engineer.
  • Get progress confirmed independently. Ask for a dated progress report signed by the appointed consultants. If the project is behind schedule, request a written recovery or mitigation plan.
  • Clarify the completion date and remedies. Ensure the sale agreement states the completion date and explains what happens if delivery is delayed, including any agreed late-delivery compensation.
  • Ask about contractor security. Confirm whether the contractor has provided a performance bond and whether it remains valid for the relevant works.
  • Understand the full purchase cost. Request a written breakdown of the price, taxes, legal and transaction costs, utility or connection charges, service charge, and any other fees.
  • Check the payment plan. Confirm when each instalment is due, what it is tied to, and how payments are protected if construction is delayed or the project changes.
  • Inspect a completed unit or show house. Compare the finishes and fittings with the written specifications, and ask how changes or defects will be handled.
  • Confirm what is included. Check the unit size, parking, amenities, finishes, fixtures and any shared facilities against the sale documents.
  • Get independent advice before signing. Have an advocate review the sale agreement and consider asking an independent building professional to assess the project.

Also check for KEZA Laika

  • Request Mi Vida's current price list and floor plans.
  • Confirm the exact unit, floor and completion date.
  • Verify title, approvals and seller entity.
  • Review the 30%/60%/10% payment milestones and delay remedies.
  • Confirm service charge, parking and property-management fees.
