Furnished units are Nairobi’s highest-yielding residential asset: short-stay and corporate rates earn 18–25% more than equivalent long lets in strong locations. VillaWatch closes the full loop that portals cannot — we sell you the investment-ready unit, furnish it to corporate standard if needed, then our property management team handles guests, bookings, housekeeping and your monthly statement. Buying from abroad? Our diaspora service manages the entire purchase remotely.
