Contractors involved in Kenya's Affordable Housing Programme (AHP) are projected to earn Sh86.5 billion in profits, a figure significantly higher than international standards for taxpayer-funded projects.

• Contractors are set to make a 30% net profit on projects valued at Sh285.5 billion.
• This profit margin far exceeds the recommended 2% to 15% typical for government contracts globally.
• Developers benefit from avoiding land acquisition costs and receiving tax incentives, despite a report commissioned by the government highlighting these high profit margins.
