How a group may be your key to owning property

My two friends and I recently saw a house on sale in Kitengela whose asking price was Sh6.5 million. The house, standing on sufficient space to park two or three cars and with adequate land for a kitchen garden, looked like a good deal and the three of us expressed interest. In addition, the house is in a gated community, a concept that is on fashion now for many property seekers.

Over lunch, we discussed the pros and cons of each of us getting a unit. Besides the proximity cementing our friendship in case we each got a unit, the idea of owning a house was persuading.
