    I stayed in this estate for my 2017 holiday in Dar. Yes, the estate is very beautiful and very quiet, the weather is good as it is close to the beach. The main issue is that there are no shops nearby if you need any thing. The main road is a bit far and there is no public transport to get you to the main road, lucky we had our own car.

    Price alone cannot be the reason. May be the Estate is not close to most people's working area, or that 'nearby' places he mentioned have a much lower rent than this gated community.
    I suspect the développers didn't do a comprehensive market research prior to this construction.

    • @mariej6962
      @mariej6962 Рік тому

      Another reason is the price, building your own home can cost you only half of the asking price , same quality , finally you will find it difficult for someone to buy that house in streets that are not gated , people values privacy more than anyone can comprehend.

    The rent of $300 isn't high, it's actually standard for a house and maybe low for middle income areas in Dar and $100K for a house is actually very very normal. The problem was marketing and location of the project (most mid income and high income people traditionally prefer to live in Kinondoni, Ubungo and ilala districts). Kigamboni is a very new area and when that project was being developed, the area was considered to be a remote area to the most of their intended market.

    This is so strange, building so many houses with no buyers. I'm not sure how it's done over there but in SA whenever there's a new development, houses are built according to the number of buyers, you can't build 10 houses while you only have 2 buyers, or am I missing something here??

    Went there last week. Houses now show signs of major decay. In Tanzania, if there are no tenants the property owners very rarely do upkeep. In some units there were major bird droppings and nesting inside. There is a gym, grocery store and pool. All empty and abandoned. It would probably take major work to fix up some of these places…but it is not impossible. If this place had attracted people as the builder had planned it would have been great. They may want to look at lowering the rent to at least get some occupancy and slow the decay of the unused homes.

    Chinese have built thousands of flats in Nairobi but occupancy rate is very low.
    They have little or no understanding of what homeowners need; schools, hospitals, shopping malls, entertainment like cinemas, restaurants etc. In Kenya the rooms tend to be very small; hence pple prefer Wahindi design and construction of homes.
    Chinese don't also join the dots of the economy and our architectural tastes - and you are right, advertising isn't their strong point.
