1-bedroom apartments have become one of the most popular property types in Nairobi and for good reason.
They are:
More affordable than larger units
Easier to rent out
In high demand among young professionals
But are they actually a good investment?
The demand for 1 bedroom apartments continues to grow, especially in areas like Kilimani, Westlands, and Kileleshwa.
This is driven by:
Urban living trends
Rising population of working professionals
Increased demand for smaller, efficient spaces
Depending on location and quality, 1-bedroom units can generate:
Consistent monthly rental income
High occupancy rates
Not every 1-bedroom apartment is a good investment.
You need to look at:
Oversupply in certain areas
Quality of the development
Property management
The right property in the right location can perform very well both in rental income and long-term appreciation.
