Vacant land investment: Real estate in Kisumu

Until now land has remained the biggest real estate investment. It is an investment product that does not stale in any way. Many people who have explored this investment option have no business stocking their money in the bank where it doesn’t earn any meaningful dividend. I have over the years met smart investors to whom I have learned a lot when it comes to vacant land investment. And just to open your eyes, in late 1990’s one of these investors bought land along the flood areas of Kano plains on the busy Kisumu Nairobi highway. By that time no one ever wanted to look at that area as a place for investment. And as it is the norm, when he was buying many parcels of land along that area, people rebuked and mocked him as one with shallow business ideas. He did not mind the insult and continued with his business idea of buying vacant land in the economically wrong places according to the views of many.

To cut the long story short, those land he bought in 1999 at less than 10,000 an acre are today 18 years down the line of investment are fetching over 2.5milion an acre. Does that raise your eyebrows? I thought you were among the group of advisers who wanted him to look elsewhere for investment then! What point am I passing across, real estate in Kisumu is full of surprises for the good of those who have mastered the real estate business. There is money in the vacant land investment. All you need to do is to remain focus and never be swayed by onlookers. If this investor in 1999 bought 20 acres of land at only Kshs. 10,000 each (Kshs. 200,000 then) and today he is disposing the same at Kshs. 2.5milion, his gross income will be Kshs. 50milion. That is Kshs. 231,000 every month in the last 18 years. And just for the avoidance of doubt, the capital was Kshs. 200,000. Was that a bad investment idea as was lauded by many then?
