Many of you have asked about the expensive of living in Mombasa. Well, you are going to be in for a treat.
You can literally live like a boss here in Mombasa without actually being one. Insanely affordable prices with all the fixings. A 3-bedroom apartment with a massive floor plan is 3 times more affordable than a 1-bedroom apartment in Atlanta with smaller square footage. Not to mention, it's either on the beach, right off from the beach, or very near walking distance to it.
We linked up with Mombasa realtor, Solomon to take a look at 3 apartments here in Mombasa.

Thanks for watching family! Please remember this was considered luxury beachfront apartments. We will soon show you regular apartments or homes that are more affordable.
that will be interesting for even locals who have not travelled within the country
please do everyone is waiting for the real Mombasa
He saw ya'll and instantly raised the rent!
True. I am from Kenya and that was alot....
I'm a Kenya but That's too much
@@rachealkibaiya7593 I heard him say shillings not dollars.
It depends on the market. Supply and demand 😅
@Marthathevineyard Exactly 💯. I was listening to him change the price. Smh, sometimes you just need them to talk and not ask a question and answer at the sSametime. He saw 💰 coming.
Price is to high!! We not coming to Africa to be house poor.
I stayed in Nairobi for a month, to secure my accommodation, I wrote a letter of enquiry in English and had it translated into Kiswahili. Sent the translated version to the estate agent to get their prices. Unbeknownst to them with all the exchanged correspondence, they felt I was Kenyan. I even sent a Kenyan UA-camr, for a fee, to do the viewings for me and sent me the videos.
It was laborious but got me a not racket price.
Hehe. English is an official language, writing a letter in swahili is strange in kenya
@@Shampah.The.Emo.Rapper I didn't just send the letter. I used its content in my SMS, WhatsApp messages with the property agents. Even used a local Kenyan phone number.
@@Shampah.The.Emo.Rapper I don't want to give any hint to the agent that I was not Kenyan. It worked for me.
@@Shampah.The.Emo.Rapper I'm fully aware majority of Kenyans speak English. Albeit my accent is different to theirs.
@@Shampah.The.Emo.Rapper whilst I was in Nairobi, I needed to get fresh groceries from the open public market. I dressed like I was a local as I accompany the Kenyan UA-camr. He did all the talking, I played deaf and we bulk buy what we needed and shared. The tactic got me local prices.
The moment the property viewer interest starts saying wow, OMG, takes my breath away, this is nice, I love this and that, the property agents knows it's time to racket the price.
My sentiments exactly. I've seen that in my time here on the continent. Going through these places oooing and awwwing like people do plants the the seed in the landlords mind to raise the already high rents.
My eyes have been opened to an option I knew not of. Mombasa is my speed. Thank you.
I'll see you in Mombassa!
Yes, I think the price is too high as well. The fact that they are telling them the price is USD, is indicative that they are giving them a non-African price.
quoting prices in USD is a common practice in the real estate market in many african countries
No it isn’t in Kenya
@@tvs9978 It shouldn't be. Other countries won't do that for Africans.
Thank you very much for these great relevant content. For those of us relocating to Kenya in a few months or in few years, this is extremely helpfull so we can prepare accordingly with the available options. I have been eyeing Diani non- tourist area to come settle down but Mombasa area seems to be growing on me because of your family oriented channel. Keep up the great work you are doing to keep us informed.
Karibu to kenya
The Kenyan Coast is an excellent retirement and holiday destination. African has 18,950 miles (30,500 km) of coastline. You guys have become travel guides for us Kenyans. You can get an unfurnished beachfront apartment for $500 a month so long as you're staying for at least a year.
$2K? Nah tho. As a Kenyan I can confirm you can find cheaper. That’s nuts.
Are these usd prices?🥴
Beautiful place, but that does sound quite expensive. I thought the cost of living was affordable in Africa. That last one was NYC or Cali prices
Especially in Mombasa.
True
@@faithwalkingpeople7955 USD my friend
Hello this is oshay from the kenganda channel. Are you in nairobi ? We are shooting the podcast in kenya tbis week and would love to have you on
Hey we’re in Mombasa but plan to come to Nairobi on the 17th.

Hope yall Make it happen ❤❤
@@TheResidentialTourists I wish you could be in Nairobi between August 11-13. There'll be the annual Nairobi Real Estate Expo at The Hub Mall. If you will have missed this, keep checking on the dates for the next Kenya Real Estates Expo.
At this events,you get to sample everything from budget to luxury and more. Great variety,deals and discounts all under one roof
We will miss that one but maybe the next.
@@TheResidentialTourists No worries. While in Nairobi, you can check with Property Show Kenya ua-cam.com/video/xMWG4G6Etro/v-deo.html
Located at; International Life House, opposite Hilton Hotel...Mama Ngina Street. They have estate show tour buses for listed properties all over Kenya.
2300.00 dollars is not cheap. I live in Panamá city Panamá. Nice gym, nice pool, close to the beach fully furnished, and the rent is only $700.00 a month. The only difference is it's a 2 bedroom. I only stay 6 months out of the year. The other 6 in Botswana. I go visit my kids and siblings in Atlanta so being so close in Panamá is an easy trip. $2300.00 and $2500.00 rents would stop those visits 😊.
yes that was to expensive
That video with your mom in the pool was such an inspiration for me. Videos like this will make your relocation business boom; you are so relaxed, like you’ve been doing it for years! English Point looks like my new home (I need the elevator!). I will definitely use your services when I make the move! Thank you so much for taking the time to show us what is available to us in Mombasa 🙏🏾👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
As always thank you for the encouragement!!
I like them all. However, the last one is my favorite! I'm from Washington, DC too! Looking at relocating to Africa.
My family rents 350 dollars in Mombasa
Where do they live?
Can we see more, 1-2 bedrooms, schools and neighborhood! I need that relocation package too!
Just get your finances together my friend and go research for yourself UA-cam just gives u an idea but traveling gives u a whole perspective.
African American build this country and they shouldn’t leave letting other people enjoy what they built! But they should be able to travel and enjoy their mother countries because African belongs to the black people that are in everwhere in the world
@@Szahra87 Every race in USA has build USA Foh with your emotional shit
People build houses then move to a different home all the time. The world is ours
@@Szahra87 l agree with you and l'm not AA. They should continue to fight for their rights in the USA. They can come to Africa as tourist or investor or marriage.
You all are doing the Lord's work. Thank you for showcasing this and showing people opportunities outside the US of A!
WOW beautiful place.. I love seeing African Countries blossom.. lots of love from a Greek Sista!
I would send an African back to view the units and I bet the price is Kenyan shillings is much less.
Absolutely correct 👍
These apartments are extremely high. I think these are more like apt/ hotels. Thats a 5bedroom/3 bathroom house mortgage in the states
No, it is not in 2023!
That's true that is a mortgage here in TX.
Please go to buxton point near Nyali bridge. You will be blown by the luxurious affordable houses going for less than 2000. It's in development but phase 1 sold out. Also you can go to Vipingo to the north outskirts of mombasa and see some marvels going on there
We plan to. This was just focused on beachfront properties
@@TheResidentialTourists Looking forward to it. I forgot one 3 br is sold at less than 42,000 usd
Great investment!!
Any good gated beach front properties (not condos) that you know of?
THAT IS NOT CHEAP‼️‼️‼️‼️ $2300 A MONTH‼️ THAT IS WHAT THE COST IS HERE IN THE STATES. WHO CAN AFFORD THAT⁉️
But that is for a 3 bedroom, 2 bathrooms, ocean view. How much would that be in Miami, Ocean City etc.? True many of these more developed African countries are having a two-tier pricing system; one for locals-who can't afford to live in these places and one for the Diaspora. Check multiple places.
Can definitely find cheaper.
@@pearbear319 BUT IT AINT MIAMI. THATS THE WHOLE POINT. I DON’T LIVE IN MIAMI. I LIVE IN MARYLAND AND THATS HOW MUCH APARTMENTS GO FOR HERE. ONE OF THEM WAS ALMOST $3000 A MONTH. SHOW US SOME APARTMENTS WE CAN AFFORD JUST COMING IN. WHY WOULD I WANT TO PAY THE SAME PRICES THEY CHARGE IN STATES I CANNOT AFFORD ⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️⁉️
$60,000 yr you can make it.
@@jamescooper4039 buy land and build instead.
Hello family.😊
Thank you so much for showing us these beautiful apartment.
We're looking forward to seeing the more affordable apartment for those of us who are on smaller budgets.
You both are awesome! Thank you.😊
Coming soon
No wonder they’re empty
Music was absolutely on point sirrrrr, salute!
I HOPE THESE PRICES ARE IN IN SCHILLINGS 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Peace and love to my African American brothers and sisters ❤ wherever they're, USA is a disgrace for treating you like animals 🇺🇸🚮 Welcome home 🇰🇪🏠❤
You have been treated like animals in your own country for hundred of years, and look at you today you own nothing, the Europeans, Chinese, Indians control your economy, you are beggars in your own country
With those kind of prices why not just buy a beautiful house instead?
Furnished apartments in Kenya cost double or more what a similar unfurnished one would. Furnished apartments are normally used to cater for tourists or short term stay. So, if you plan to be a long term resident, the best option would be an unfurnished one.
Are you Instagram? I can send you links of Kenya real estate Instagram pages. Luxury apartments, prices in Kenya shillings and well under $1000
The 3rd place was the best of all price point a bet to much but all are beautiful.Thank you both for taking out time to show us how beautiful Kenya,Mombasa is.💐💐💐
Loved all three, great value. Can you do a video on the international schools. Transportation and cost. By the way you look rested. Blessings!
International school in mombasa will be coast academy , braeburn school, lights academy ,nyali academy it's been long I was in mombasa you can check on this last school I mentioned mostly nyali academy next to the former president house and close to the beach. If you need more info just ask I will try and answer you.
@@kenyanlivingabroad , thank you
@@kenyanlivingabroadso wots the former president point help??
@@tonygee5680 Probably to indicate exclusivity and the security aspect that comes with it
Americans attend online school 😅
If I was going to pay that amount, there needs to be convenient stores, grocery stores, great schools, street lights, and ( paved roads, In the whole city) 😂 all nearby, also if you do not have a job that brings in good revenue, how do you survive ?
You need to be independently wealth or have a business that will generate good income or retired with a good pension. Personally, I would buy land, build a nice house in a nice beach location and live like the natives.
If u wanna live good u got to pay good just get your finances in order my friend
No wonder it's still empty at the moment that's prize is not friendly at all even me who is from the coast I can say that not the prize even close to that as a former real estate agent. 1200 dollars for that front house i still have libk i can confirm with my boiz on ground if thats the actual rent.
I loved my visit to Mombasa. If I could live there, it would be awesome❣️
That is overpriced, and he knows it . The electricity & Internet should be inclusive.
Any good gated beach front properties (not condos) that you know of?
You pay all that price and still have to pay for Wifi and electricity that's crazy..
Thanks for sharing!
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching!
Where are my manners?! Thank you so much for coming through! I have never seen a video showcasing Mombassa's apartments like this!!!
$2300 a month way too much!! If you are American, once you open your mouth the price of everything goes up. Your American accent increases the prices. Best to have an trustworthy indigenous native do the negotiating for you. Or sharpen your haggling skills.
That rent is way to high!
I loved all 3, but the last one was a vibe!
Wow! $$$$ nah, I’m good, great tour tho, thank you so very much for the tour
I don't understand why people are complaining about the price,these are luxury apartments not regular homes it is very suprising that people in the USA expect the prices to be much lower here when the quality is almost the same
Thank YOU!
Entirely too much.
Average kenyan salaries is 200 dollars per month
Nice locations and very spacious.
While still exploring Mombasa/Coastal properties, check out Sultan Palace and Vipingo Ridge. Both are beach front gated communities
Awesome thank you
Hey, Can you recommend more places like these?
@relaxygonzalez5605 coming up
Your channel views blow out since you started saying you are moving to Kenya. Now you have moved, your views are on fire. Kenya is one of the best city to build a UA-cam channel. I am happy for you.❤ I had a great time in your airbnb in Rwanda 😅 Hopefully, you do the same business in Kenya
Thank you very much for the love, well-wishes and encouragement!
Wow...this is perfect for a single or a couple!!! I love it...what about unfurnished apartments...does that bring down the price...just asking...you guys are really doing the darn thing...I must say that you have come a long way...your'e my most watch...Thank you
I know that a lot of thes places like English point are still I owned by Brits and Indians. Are there no nice places owned by Black Kenyans. I don't want to move to Africa to pay rent to Indians and Brits!!! The apartment is only going to be temporary. I want to build or buy a house in a nice area with the view. Can we some of those houses please, please find some forvus.❤❤❤❤
No worriea
Many are owned by the Africans. Few by white, Indians and Arabs
I hear you...I rather buy land and build my house...renting is never the way to go...the first apartment the guy said two months rent and 1 month's deposit...hell that's 6,900 dollars...I can buy land with that!!!@@ruqayyahcurtis7504
I'm a Kenya but That's too much. You can other place at cheaper prices. Next time send a kenyan whether the price gonna be the same
$2,300 US Per month? That seems like a lot
Check out our live, we go more in detail
Too expensive. When you say it in Kenya shillings, then you know its too expensive. Where do you want the Kenyans to go rent with those kinds of prices. Mombasa slow down, you are still in Africa not Europe.
This is meant for a certain Class of living believe me there are very many Kenyans who can't think twice to pay that!
I have plans on moving to Kenya and I have my heart set on English Point.. Haven't even seen these apartments in person yet, but I'm set on buying a penthouse, 4th floor, front unit there. 🙏
That’s amazing
Hey, how's your search been so far? I am in the same boat. Any good gated beach front properties (not condos) that you know of?
Greetings Residential Tourists what I see is # 2 From the outside in, is light and airy beautiful view and activities close by, but it will be a lot of activity and probably noise at times. #3 As you said “feels like home” and has everything to serve the family, schools etc. and key “you can feel the energy”. Best wishes looking forward to see your choice❤
Oh we have an apartment near by, can’t afford the luxury ones yet! Lol
@@TheResidentialTourists ok that will happen soon, I'm happy for you❤️
I feel I can buy a Condominiums somewhere there cheaper than renting. 27,000--30,000 a year to high. may be 45,000 or 50,000 to buy.
Buying is always best
Too expensive Dear Africa stop raising prices for Foreigners Some of us are very educated travelers.
For furnished ocean view with all the amenities they are offering, definitely a great deal!
Exactly!! and every bedroom is self contained with a bathroom?....halleluiiaahh!!!
I agree that’s a fair price. The agent is not worried about renting it out 😊when the tourist (read white people) come looking the place will be fully let😂
Ur intro now is something else 👊🏿🤙🏿
Remember the other diaspora who are not from USA don't have US dollars so e.g. Caribbean please give us good prices. Nice content
This was only for luxury apartments, we will show regular apartments soon
that apartment in America will be double the price.
The first apartment is way too expensive! Just as bad as in America! I love the second one but prefer the house.
Started watching after seeing the subject. You have the three of you in frame, but You did not introduce the brother. I'm a sistah from the states, i would like his info please. Thank you for showing the beauty of Rwanda and Kenya,
The realtor info is in the description
@@TheResidentialTourists thanks for responding, I'll look again
It' is a lovely apartment but over priced. My mortgage in Iowa is less than that 😂. I want to support African owned businesses when possible. I do enjoy your videos showing various rentals. Very informative.
Thank you
Realtor Solomon Kitema?
them apartment are luxury you expect them be high!
Praise The Lord, for the Move
Coral properties is s big company but they prizes are off the roof
You guys look so happy and relaxed since you arrived in Kenya. Rwanda as clean as it is , it's not really comfortable place to live in
❤️
The view and Crows! Mombasa always one of my greatest getaways. You should do South Coast too... Diani/Ukunda areas
Lights and water always on if you pay the bill??
That's practically the same as my rent for my 2 story 3 bedroom house in the USA!
I’m interested in checking out one of those ocean front villas
Could you do the under a grand apartments for people who can’t afford the one’s uv shown,otherwise beautiful stuff continue to push on
Yes soon
@@TheResidentialTourists Salam aleikum 🙏🏿👊🏿
I love the intro into your videos.
Thank you!
Hi! Did you have to get a PCR test before entering Kenya??
Is that still a thing?
Nice but out of range in price and size
Guys please tell me how many Americans will pay 2300usd for rent in Nairobi
This is for luxury style Beachfront apartments in Mombasa.
👋🏾 from Washington DC
That’s not affordable at $2300 monthly! That’s New York rent and how is it the US system is being used in Eastern Africa? What Kenyans can afford it at this relatively high price?
They talking to rich people.
No wonder it's still empty at the moment that's prize is not friendly at all even me who is from the coast I can say that not the prize even as a former real estate agent.
He's definitely trying to scam them 😢
It is happening in Ghana, Nigeria, Rwanda etc. Guess who owns the places? Not the citizens of these countries. It is sad; they are trying to exploit the Africa awakening of the Western Diaspora. Shame!
@@kenyanlivingabroadAsk the Residential to show you Cheap places, there so many in Mombasa.The oned shown are for the Rich Actually.
Congratulations
?
I thought the news around town is that English point is under auction 😢
Really?
@@TheResidentialTourists Yes, google “ KCB seizes English Point Marina over Ksh 5 billion debt”. But I guess that doesn’t affect it’s operations.
A bit steep!
That is expensive 2000 Dollars
It’s luxury living for those that can afford it
I started watching and read the comments and I seen 2300 usd I stop watching.
Thanks for watching as much as you did👍🏾
I really want to move to Mombassa cause i do not really like nairobi thank you for this.
Why don't you like it?
@@Thegalacticgeneral Its too busy for me and when i travel and go to other Kenyan cities i tend to like them more.I think Nairobi is overrated its only good cause of the night life which i am not into and businesses
Plus i have been raised here so i am so bored of Nairobi.
Mombasa is my favourite city because its calm food there is amazing and the ocean i love the water.
@@Tmaria-wn3hc I feel that. Mombasa looks like peace. I also love the beach, nothing beats it.
How much is the rental LS share phone number of the care taker
Promo-SM 💕
Take it easy don’t get too over excited he puts the price up when he hears that 😂 typical real estate agent. Pole pole, please .
Did you guys move from Rwanda to mombasa?
I would like to move to kenya, but don't know where.
