Message from the CEO<br />
“Never, never, never, never<br />
give up.” Wins<strong>to</strong>n Churchill<br />
would like <strong>to</strong> convey my deepest gratitude <strong>to</strong> those<br />
of you who believe in our dream. <strong>The</strong> stewardship of<br />
the Association has shifted and our new Chairman is<br />
Palkesh Shah and Vice Charman is Kenneth Luusa.<br />
Both have been members of the Association since its<br />
inception and we therefore have no doubt that they<br />
will continue <strong>to</strong> steer us in the best direction.<br />
Perseverance is described by the Oxford dictionary<br />
as ‘persistence in doing something despite difficulty<br />
or delay in achieving success.’ Karibu Homes are a<br />
clear demonstration of what it means <strong>to</strong> persistently<br />
continue <strong>to</strong> deliver affordable housing <strong>to</strong> Kenyans<br />
despite all the bottlenecks that discourage private<br />
inves<strong>to</strong>rs in doing so. Read more on their s<strong>to</strong>ry in our<br />

Challenges in Delivering<br />
Affordable Housing in<br />
Kenya: <strong>The</strong> Case of KARIBU<br />
Homes Ltd<br />
1. Karibu Homes<br />
KARIBU was founded in 2009, with the vision<br />
of “transforming the provision of housing<br />
in Kenya by setting the standard for the<br />
development of affordable, thriving communities for<br />
hard working families.” <strong>The</strong> company was founded<br />
by two entrepreneurs, Irfan Keshavjee and Nick<br />
Gilodi-Johnson, who established the concept and<br />
were then joined by a third entrepreneur, Ravi Kohli.<br />
By Seeta Shah and Ravi Ruparel<br />
Together they set out <strong>to</strong> assemble a strong team of<br />
experienced professionals who shared the passion<br />
for delivering affordable housing using commercial<br />
solutions. <strong>The</strong>ir core values included “<strong>to</strong> bring<br />
affordable, safe, dignified housing as far down the<br />
income ladder as is commercially possible” and<br />
“using commercial disciplines and strategies <strong>to</strong><br />
create social impact.” <strong>The</strong> Riverview Development<br />
(RIVERVIEW) in Athi River is the company’s first<br />
project.<br />
<strong>The</strong> development boom<br />
pushed up land prices<br />
and drove developers<br />
<strong>to</strong> promote<br />
developments at the<br />
city’s edge.<br />
KARIBU has been recognized for its efforts. <strong>The</strong><br />
company was awarded Winner of Best Development<br />
in Sub Saharan Africa at the African Property<br />
Investment awards in 2017, and is included in the<br />
London S<strong>to</strong>ck Exchange group of “Companies <strong>to</strong><br />
Inspire Africa” in <strong>2019</strong>. KARIBU is in the process of<br />
initiating other housing development projects<br />
1.2 Why This Case Study<br />
Kenya has a significant housing gap. <strong>The</strong> World Bank,<br />
in its Kenya Economic Update entitled Housing –<br />
Unavailable and Unaffordable (<strong>April</strong> 2017), estimated<br />
that the housing deficit was 2 million units and was<br />
growing at 50,000 units per year.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Kenyan housing market has seen a significant<br />
transformation over the last 15 years. In Nairobi,<br />
investment in residential real estate started with high<br />
income <strong>to</strong>wnhouse and apartment developments in<br />
neighbourhoods closer <strong>to</strong> the city. <strong>The</strong> development<br />
boom pushed up land prices and drove developers <strong>to</strong><br />
promote developments at the city’s edge. However<br />
the <strong>to</strong>tal number of units built per annum has been<br />
quite small. And most of these developments have<br />
targeted middle and upper income buyers.<br />
<strong>The</strong> RIVERVIEW project was selected for this case<br />
study as:<br />
(i) <strong>The</strong> founders of KARIBU are committed <strong>to</strong><br />
creating affordable housing with a focus on<br />
homeownership (ii) KARIBU was willing <strong>to</strong> make<br />
time available and share their data<br />
(iii) <strong>The</strong> learnings from this project are applicable<br />
<strong>to</strong> the Affordable Housing Programme (AHP)<br />
Focus on Policy<br />
and are likely <strong>to</strong> be useful <strong>to</strong> policy makers and<br />
implementers of the AHP.<br />
1.3 Approach<br />
<strong>The</strong> Case Study was prepared for the Centre of<br />
Affordable Housing Finance in Africa by Seeta Shah<br />
and Ravi Ruparel. <strong>The</strong> authors reviewed documents<br />
provided by KARIBU and also conducted numerous<br />
interviews with the Direc<strong>to</strong>rs and staff. <strong>The</strong> authors<br />
also under<strong>to</strong>ok a survey of a sample of households.<br />
2. Developer’s Perspective<br />
KARIBU’s initial aim was <strong>to</strong> serve as wide a segment<br />
of first time home buyers as possible. <strong>The</strong> concept<br />
was based on a principle of cross subsidization.<br />
Essentially their plan was that higher profits from<br />
higher priced units, would subsidize the lower profits<br />
from lower priced units; but overall the development<br />
would be commercially viable. KARIBU’s research<br />
showed that developers generally only served the <strong>to</strong>p<br />
10% of Kenyan households by income bracket.<br />
<strong>The</strong>y focused their efforts on giving access <strong>to</strong><br />
households in the 40th <strong>to</strong> 90th percentiles at a price<br />
point lower than was prevailing in the market.<br />

2.1 Project Planning<br />
<strong>The</strong> masterplan brief was focused on creating<br />
cohesive and ambient communities. KARIBU’s<br />
research and focus groups highlighted the following<br />
key attributes that were fac<strong>to</strong>red in<strong>to</strong> the design:<br />
a) Low Density<br />
b) Security/Ambience/Environment<br />
c) Incremental building<br />
d) Variety<br />
e) Target Market and Pricing<br />
2.2 Land Identification & Purchase<br />
Size<br />
(sqm)<br />
KARIBU identified three possible locations on the<br />
peri- urban fringes of Nairobi. KARIBU eventually<br />
identified an ideal 20 acre parcel in Athi River, which<br />
was being sold by a private individual. <strong>The</strong> plot is<br />
rectangular shaped (not <strong>to</strong>o narrow) and only one<br />

2.3 Project Financing<br />
KARIBU was successful in raising sufficient equity<br />
financing due <strong>to</strong> the strength of their business plan<br />
coupled with the team’s own networks from previous<br />
projects. <strong>The</strong> 3 founders had put in some cash equity<br />
of their own, so they had “skin in the game.”<br />

KARIBU believes that paying more for land that was<br />
close <strong>to</strong> the main road and easy <strong>to</strong> service was a good<br />
decision due <strong>to</strong> the challenges of providing access<br />
and connecting <strong>to</strong> utilities. KARIBU also obtained<br />
advice from the Arup Foundation, the development<br />
arm of a large international engineering firm. Arup’s<br />
suggestions included providing for wide s<strong>to</strong>rm<br />
water drains and internal roads paved with concrete<br />
blocks. This approach has meant that during heavy<br />
rains RIVERVIEW has stayed relatively dry while<br />
neighbouring estates experienced flooding.<br />
2.5 Building Construction<br />
Within each phase, the delivery of units was<br />
staggered. This was carefully worked out with the<br />
contrac<strong>to</strong>r such that its workforce was utilised<br />
efficiently whilst allowing for a delivery of units that<br />
more closely matched market demand.<br />
A careful analysis of the most efficient block<br />
footprints <strong>to</strong> save costs included:<br />
• Maximising the gross internal area of a block (the<br />
effective space being sold <strong>to</strong> cus<strong>to</strong>mers) relative<br />
<strong>to</strong> its gross external area (the built area paid for<br />
by KARIBU); and<br />

2.8 Sales & Registration<br />
4. Key Lessons<br />
KARIBU also invested in<br />
a Cus<strong>to</strong>mer Relationship<br />
Management (CRM)<br />
system <strong>to</strong> allow it <strong>to</strong><br />
track interactions<br />
with cus<strong>to</strong>mers and<br />
prospects.<br />
• Minimising space wastage such that the mix of<br />
block typologies would allow for a block pattern<br />
that met density requirements whilst maximising<br />
the sense of space across the estate.<br />
KARIBU’s building design used a load bearing wall<br />
structure as opposed <strong>to</strong> column and beam structure.<br />
This eliminated the need for a more costly steel<br />
framework without compromising on structural<br />
integrity.<br />
2.6 Marketing<br />
KARIBU has a comprehensive marketing strategy,<br />
from participating in Property Shows open <strong>to</strong> the<br />
public, <strong>to</strong> having regular open days that are widely<br />
advertised, and making presentations at companies<br />
and government offices either directly or through<br />
mortgage providers. KARIBU also invested in a<br />
Cus<strong>to</strong>mer Relationship Management (CRM) system<br />
<strong>to</strong> allow it <strong>to</strong> track interactions with cus<strong>to</strong>mers and<br />
prospects.<br />
2.7 Pricing & Financing<br />
KARIBU had developed six different unit typologies<br />
between 30 and 95m2. At launch, the pricing of these<br />
units ranged from approximately KES1.5 million <strong>to</strong><br />
KES5.5 million, depending not only on the unit size<br />
and finish, but also on the mode of payment. KARIBU<br />
offered three payment options - Cash Outright, Cash<br />
Instalment or Mortgage.<br />
<strong>The</strong> sales and registration process is quite<br />
cumbersome and involves steps. Due <strong>to</strong> the<br />
cumbersome registration process, KARIBU would<br />
wait <strong>to</strong> group buyers and process their paperwork in<br />
‘batches’ of between 10 – 30 purchasers.<br />
<strong>The</strong> steps involved include:<br />
• Step 1: Booking<br />
• Step 2: Sale Agreement<br />
• Step 3: Agreement for Lease<br />
• Step 4: Construction Completion<br />
• Step 5: Finalize payment and prepare for<br />
registration<br />
• Step 6: Submit Registration documentation<br />
• Step 7: Stamp duty Valuation<br />
• Step 8: Registration<br />
• Step 9: Occupation<br />
3. Buyer’s Experiences<br />
Buyers of the Riverview development were both<br />
owner occupiers and inves<strong>to</strong>rs who purchased the<br />
property <strong>to</strong> rent out. While the distribution between<br />
these two types cannot be defined, KARIBU did<br />
ascertain the intentions of its potential purchasers<br />
at the time of booking. About 70% of purchasers<br />
declared their motive, and of this set, about 70% had<br />
stated they were purchasing for owner occupation vs<br />
30% for investment purposes.<br />
KARIBU staff helped identify a sample of 22<br />
households who were willing <strong>to</strong> be interviewed. <strong>The</strong><br />
sample included 17 respondents from Athi units and<br />
five respondents from Tana units.<br />
<strong>The</strong> main observations from the interviews are<br />
summarized below:<br />
3.1 Buyer His<strong>to</strong>ry & Household<br />
Characteristics<br />
• Most of the respondents are long term residents<br />
of greater Nairobi.<br />
• Most had moved from rental accommodationtypically<br />
two bedroom flats.<br />
• Security, Affordability and Environment were the<br />
main fac<strong>to</strong>rs that attracted the respondents <strong>to</strong><br />
RIVERVIEW.<br />
• Most of the households are a traditional family<br />
unit.<br />
• Most of the respondents are under 45 and highly<br />
educated.<br />
• Many have a long commute <strong>to</strong> and from work and<br />
most use their own car.<br />
3.2 Financing Choices<br />
• <strong>The</strong> overall preferred financing method was<br />
Cash: Eleven of the respondents chose the<br />
Cash Outright option while four chose the<br />
Cash Instalments option. Only seven <strong>to</strong>ok out<br />
mortgages.<br />
• <strong>The</strong>re were an equal number of Equity (cash)<br />
Financed and Debt Financed buyers.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> motivation for using equity (cash) only<br />
financing varies: Some respondents had enough<br />
savings for a cash purchase and did not need<br />
debt. Others had assets that they could sell and<br />
preferred <strong>to</strong> do that rather than taking on debt.<br />
Most of the equity financed respondents used<br />
personal savings.<br />
• Assets Sales, Pension Savings and Salary Dues<br />
were also an important financing source.<br />
• SACCO loans are popular and easy <strong>to</strong> obtain. Two<br />
respondents accessed SACCO development loans.<br />
<strong>The</strong> loans were for 3-4 years at interest rates of 10<br />
- 14%.<br />
• <strong>The</strong> mortgage experience varied among<br />
respondents. Two of the seven mortgages were at<br />
subsidised rates; one at 3% and the other at 6%.<br />
One of these was made possible by the employer<br />
having placed a fixed deposit at the bank.<br />
• Most of the mortgage borrowers intend <strong>to</strong> pay<br />
down their mortgages early: Some respondents<br />
said that they were paying more than the<br />
monthly instalments due. Others said that they<br />
were saving money in a Sacco so that they could<br />
pay off the mortgage earlier.<br />
<strong>The</strong>re are a number of lessons from the key lessons<br />
from the Case Study which are likely <strong>to</strong> be useful <strong>to</strong><br />
developers, policy makers and implementers of the<br />
AHP. <strong>The</strong>y include:<br />
a) <strong>The</strong> time needed <strong>to</strong> deliver a project is lengthy<br />
b) Sourcing well located land, serviced land is<br />
critical<br />
c) Transport is a major consideration<br />
d) Planning and densities are important decisions<br />
e) Construction costs and professional fees are very<br />
high<br />
f) Obtaining construction financing is very difficult<br />
g) <strong>The</strong>re is a big gap for owner occupied middle<br />
income housing<br />
h) <strong>The</strong> rental market should not be overlooked<br />
i) Registration is time consuming<br />
j) <strong>The</strong> mortgage market needs greater efficiency<br />
k) <strong>The</strong>re is need <strong>to</strong> tap in<strong>to</strong> other financing sources<br />
5. Conclusion<br />
<strong>The</strong> case study provides a good overall picture of<br />
the challenges of undertaking an affordable housing<br />
development project in Kenya. <strong>The</strong> development<br />
process is challenging and lengthy and requires the<br />
developer <strong>to</strong> simultaneously overcome multiple<br />
challenges. Sourcing well located, serviced land<br />
is critical and transport is a major consideration.<br />
Construction costs and professional fees are high.<br />
And the registration process is inefficient and time<br />
consuming. <strong>The</strong> non-fiscal measures proposed under<br />
the AHP, including a one s<strong>to</strong>p shop for approvals and<br />
streamlining the registration process, could help<br />
make the development process shorter and more<br />
efficient. And a review of the taxes on construction<br />
materials and contracts could lead <strong>to</strong> lower delivery<br />
costs.<br />
Developers also struggle <strong>to</strong> obtain financing, which<br />
contributes <strong>to</strong> the differentiated pricing between<br />
the Cash Outright, Cash Instalment and Mortgage<br />
financed purchasers. Provision of an off-take<br />
agreement, as currently designed under the AHP,<br />
does not provide much incentive <strong>to</strong> local banks <strong>to</strong><br />
provide longer term funding, or reduce their interest<br />
rates.<br />

have your say<br />
Market comparison <strong>to</strong>ol – Compare construction<br />
costs for different building categories and<br />
construction fac<strong>to</strong>rs across 64 markets.<br />
Indicative cost calcula<strong>to</strong>r – calculates how much a<br />
building could cost based on our market data.<br />
By Turner & Townsend<br />
Turner & Townsend sets the big data benchmark in the Real Estate Market and<br />
helps property developers and architects create commercially viable projects.<br />
<strong>The</strong> latest overview of the construction market<br />
across 6 cities in Africa, including Nairobi<br />
Kenya, and another 58 cities around the world<br />
has been released by independent professional<br />
services company, Turner & Townsend.<br />
With their speciality lying in quantity surveying,<br />
cost management and project management, they<br />
are well placed <strong>to</strong> reveal the patterns and trends in<br />
construction expenditure.<br />
<strong>The</strong> data is released annually in their International<br />
Construction Market Survey (ICMS), the report itself<br />
is considered a <strong>to</strong>ol <strong>to</strong> help property developers and<br />
architects <strong>to</strong> drive more informed decisions upfront<br />
about the viability of certain construction projects in<br />
specific cities.<br />
“Turner & Townsend can<br />
provide numbers that<br />
property developers and<br />
their professional teams<br />
can trust.”<br />
<strong>The</strong> data presented on labour costs, material costs<br />
and plant costs covers projects across residential,<br />
retail, hotels, hospitals, schools, universities,<br />
commercial offices and car parks, industrial<br />
warehouses and even airport buildings.<br />
Practical benefits<br />
When asked about the real value of the ICMS <strong>to</strong> its<br />
readers, Rewel Kariuki, Head of Cost Management<br />
at MML Turner & Townsend explained “We want <strong>to</strong><br />
make the difference by helping property developers<br />
and professional teams take a more commercial<br />
approach <strong>to</strong> conceptualizing projects, and with the<br />
information in the ICMS they can do that.<br />
<strong>The</strong> report evidences the enormous and ever<br />
growing data set that belongs <strong>to</strong> Turner & Townsend,<br />
which is critical for the calculation of construction<br />
and development cost of different building types,<br />
in varying locations, accurately. Kariuki says “If<br />
your data set is small because you’ve only done a<br />
few projects of a specific type then it is difficult <strong>to</strong><br />
trust your numbers. Aside from the data shared in<br />
the report, we have done hundreds of projects of<br />
all project types and across 34 African countries.<br />
Turner & Townsend can provide numbers that the<br />
developers and their professional teams can trust.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> additional benefit, however, is that given the<br />
way we manage big data we are able <strong>to</strong> very quickly<br />
check the viability of a project at the very early ideas<br />
stage with the developer and architect. This way time<br />
isn’t wasted conceptualizing a development that<br />
won’t work financially.<br />
It is a real team effort <strong>to</strong> move from an idea <strong>to</strong> a<br />
design, and make it feasible. <strong>The</strong> team wants <strong>to</strong> get<br />
a feel for these costs as early on as possible so they<br />
don’t have <strong>to</strong> keep going back <strong>to</strong> the drawing board<br />
When asked how the international<br />
construction market survey compares <strong>to</strong><br />
resources produced by Turner & Townsend<br />
competi<strong>to</strong>rs, Kariuki explains:<br />
“Our survey offers more detailed commentary and<br />
a far greater level of data than any publication<br />
produced by our competi<strong>to</strong>rs.<br />
“Most publications only offer detailed construction<br />
cost data for a select few building types and few offer<br />
inputs and trade costs. Our survey provides cost<br />
data for 27 different building types, 19 construction<br />
trades, five construction labour categories and 11<br />
materials in 64 markets.<br />
“<strong>The</strong> survey also provides three comparison<br />
methods, enabling our clients <strong>to</strong> compare projects<br />
on a regional or global level: comparison using US$,<br />
purchasing power parity (PPP) and location fac<strong>to</strong>rs.<br />
Each method is useful <strong>to</strong> a different target group, as<br />
opposed <strong>to</strong> only a common exchange comparison<br />
commonly used by our competi<strong>to</strong>rs.<br />
“All the data published is sourced internally, based on<br />
real projects and the experiences of our construction<br />
professionals. A number of publications produced<br />
by our competi<strong>to</strong>rs rely on data supplied by external<br />
suppliers or contrac<strong>to</strong>rs. It is more difficult <strong>to</strong> make<br />
sure contrac<strong>to</strong>rs in different countries and regions<br />
are pricing the same and providing a true like for like<br />
comparison.”<br />

Where <strong>to</strong> next?<br />
“We are taking our <strong>2019</strong> results on a roadshow across<br />
Southern and Eastern Africa and will be sharing<br />
and discussing the data across various industry<br />
platforms.<br />
“We welcome a discussion with anyone who<br />
wants <strong>to</strong> understand more about how <strong>to</strong> use<br />
the data <strong>to</strong> the benefit of their projects” says<br />
Kariuki.”<br />
