Why Investors Shortlist 88 Nairobi

Upper Hill is Nairobi’s financial district — the World Bank, IFC, Old Mutual and Britam all sit within walking distance, and corporate tenants pay a premium to skip the commute. Furnished units in landmark towers typically earn 18–25% above unfurnished long lets (see our furnished apartments in Nairobi guide), and our property management team can run the tenancy end to end. Benchmark the numbers against the wider market in our Nairobi property prices guide.

The tower rises in Upper Hill, the skyscraper district that Standard Media compared to New York.
