 Real estate has long been considered the ultimate pathway to wealth creation by financial experts. Whether it's owning a rental home or having a stake in a commercial property, real estate stands out as an avenue to amass tangible assets that grow in value over time while generating immediate income.

Let’s assume you have a quarter piece of land that you want to development and you’re torn between setting up rental houses and venturing into dairy farming – which one would you pick?  From the face of it, many will choose rentals over farming – largely because there is an increasing demand for rental houses – especially in urban areas.  However, this article will show you why opting for rentals over dairy farming would be a huge mistake – investor wise.  An individual that goes for setting up rentals will require to have capital to build those houses – let’s use Ksh10 million.  This means you will need to go and get a bank loan to finance that project.

Do you what it means for you as a tenant the moment you pay your rent and you are issued a receipt?  Well, if you did not know, allow me to give you a heads-up – what it means under Kenyan Law or any other law globally is that the Landlord is granting you the right to peaceful enjoyment of the property.  Once this is done, you are the one to determine the entrance, usage and safety of the property. You can even sue anyone, including the Landlord for trespass against any trespasser; strangers.  But what of the landlord, is he not the owner of the house? Yes, he/she remains the owner of that flat, unit or house that he/she has rented to you.  The landlord, however, can only supervise and maintain the property generally but must request permission from you as a tenant and within reasonable hours of the day.  Now that you know your rights don't let anyone treat you like a Slave for what you are paying for.  Visit Baoriant agencies to find out if there are any ...
