Kenya's real estate market is seeing a significant shift from Nairobi's city center to satellite towns like Kitengela, Ruiru, and Ngong. These areas are becoming prime investment locations due to improved infrastructure, affordability, and lifestyle appeal, indicating a new trend for property buyers and investors in 2025.

• Land prices in Tigoni recorded an astounding 80% growth in just two years, according to BuyRentKenya’s Q2 2025 Property Price Index.
• The shift is largely driven by major infrastructure upgrades like the Nairobi Expressway and ongoing improvements to bypasses and feeder roads.
• While city apartments offer quick resale, satellite towns cater to a strong ownership culture and offer more spacious, affordable properties such as three- or four-bedroom townhouses in areas like Kitengela or Ruiru.
