By Jared Oundo,

According to Cytonn investment, the Kenyan real estate market has grown exponentially as evidenced by its contribution to the country’s GDP which grew from 10.5% in 2000 to 12.6% in 2012 and 13.8% in 2016. To the investment firm, for the past two decades the growth in the industry is driven by;

  1. Infrastructural developments such as improved roads, utility connections, upgrade of key airports;
  2. Stable GDP growth which has averaged at 5.4% over the last 5 years against a Sub- Saharan average of 4.1%;
  3. Demographic trends such as rapid urbanization at 4.4% p.a against the world’s 2.5% and population growth averaging at 2.6% p.a; and
  4. High total returns averaging at 25.0% against 12.4% in the traditional asset classes.

These factors have therefore led to the development of unique trends across the various real estate themes, as investors sought to gain high returns and buyers sought aspirational lifestyles and quality products.

Just recently, Myspace Properties announced that it will be unveiling modern mini-malls to meet the growing demand from retailers and vendors.  According to Myspace CEO Mwenda Thuranira,  the strategy was adopted owing to increasing large format retail store saturation levels in major towns and skyrocketing population that are living in new residential areas at lengthy commuting distances from larger retail centres, mini-malls will offer suitability purchase.  Pundits also argue that this strategy is because of the shrinking spacious land in urban centres amid growing population.   For more information please visit their website https://www.myspace.co.ke/
