Our view

Adidon verdict
Built and occupied, but you pay a premium for the Tatu City address.
Adidon, 14 Oct 2026

Unity One is complete and occupied. The one-bedroom units I found are 45 m² at KES 6.1M, about KES 136,000 per m². That's a high rate for a compact one-bedroom, and much of it pays for the Tatu City setting.

Residents get a pool, gym, children's play area, food court, solar hot water, backup power and managed security. Unity advertises cash, a 24-month instalment plan and KCB and KMRC mortgage options.

Tatu City is orderly and well managed, but it sits outside Nairobi County and most residents will need a car.

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 Unity One.

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 Unity One

  • Inspect the exact unit and snagging record.
  • Obtain lease and sectional-title documents.
  • Confirm service charge, sinking fund and transfer costs.
  • Verify achieved rents and occupancy for comparable 45 m² units.
  • Get written mortgage and instalment quotations.
