Nairobi Kenya’s capital has a significant demanding need for Apartments for sale. When it comes to Apartments
for sale, many people look for property that is either for rental purposes or to own. When looking for an
apartment, it is important to factor in one easily accessible to the CBD. This in full refers to the Central Business
District.
Being in a location close to the CBD has the advantage of accessing so many amenities all around Nairobi.
Suitable areas for purchasing Apartments
Additionally, when considering a suitable area for a property, there are additional considerations. This includes
lovely and scenic views, tranquility, and security. One thing that is a major factor in Kenya is having a home with
always available utilities.
Never overlook adequacy in water supply, power backup generators, and great trash disposal. There are many
apartments that ideally look lovely but lack greatly in these aspects. Another area not to overlook is traffic levels.
You want to live in an area where a drive to the CBD takes 10 to 15 minutes long without traffic.
In cases where there is traffic, it is recommended to be in an area where you take about 45 minutes to an hour
long. The significance of this is that ease down in traffic makes commuting and transportation very easy.

some with more bedrooms but these are the most common. Amongst these who’s locations are Parklands Nairobi,
