Developer and team

Track record: Northlands City is a long-term mixed-use master plan in Ruiru. The official apartment site does not clearly identify the legal development company, so ownership and contracting entity require document verification. Desktop review

Instalment plan

Instalment planAsk the developer for current instalment terms
—

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
Ready-built family homes at a fair price. Confirm who's selling.
Adidon

Northlands Heights is complete. Units range from a 33 m² studio at KES 4.29M to a 109 m² three-bedroom at KES 12.5M, about KES 100,000 to KES 130,000 per m².

The homes come with fitted kitchens, wardrobes and balconies, and the estate has landscaped courtyards, a clubhouse, play areas and sports facilities. Northlands City connects to the Thika Superhighway and the Eastern Bypass, with AMREF International University and Peponi School nearby.

Much of the wider Northlands City is still planned rather than built. I couldn't confirm the legal name of the selling company from public sources, and that's the first thing I'd check.

Before you pay17 checks to run before you commit any money: approvals, title, quality, progress, payment protection and the full cost. Includes 6 specific to Northlands Heights Apartments.

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.
