    Welcome to my story of building a home on a budget in Kenya. I initially thought KES 300,000 would be enough, but as you can see, construction costs can quickly add up. Here's a breakdown of my expenses and how I've managed to keep costs low while maintaining quality. From the foundation to the flooring, I share my tips, challenges, and the real costs involved in constructing a house. Whether you're planning a build or just curious about the process, join me as I navigate the highs and lows of building a home in Kenya.
    Join me as I continue this journey, sharing insights, cost-saving tips, and the reality of building a home on a budget in Kenya. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more updates!
