Kenya's property market is significantly outperforming major global economies, including the USA and UK, in investment returns. Properties in Kenya delivered an impressive 7.8 percent return in the year to June 2025, driven by unique financing structures and growing demand.

• Kenya's property market yielded a return of 7.8 percent, surpassing Australia (4.74 percent), Singapore (4.15 percent), and the USA (2.38 percent).
• HassConsult International Investment Outperformance: The Kenyan Residential Property Market report provided the data, with Sakina Hassanali, Co-CEO of HassConsult, highlighting that less than 2 percent of homes in Kenya are mortgage-financed.
• The market's resilience is attributed to homes being "fully paid," preventing forced sales, and a growing population of high-income earners driving housing demand. Combined rental yields and property returns reached 13.28 percent.
