In real estate, location is everything—and in Kenya, location is defined by infrastructure. When new roads, bypasses, railways, ports, or SEZs (Special Economic Zones) are announced, one thing happens: land prices shoot up.
For smart investors, this is where the gold lies. In this blog, we reveal how buying land near infrastructure developments is the most strategic property move you can make in Kenya. We also share projected returns, success stories, and how Frontnine Advisory helps you invest early—before the boom.
Why Infrastructure Drives Land Value
1. Accessibility Increases Demand
When roads improve, people and businesses move in. Rent demand goes up, resale prices spike.
2. Government-Backed Growth
When the government builds infrastructure, private developers follow fast.
3. Utility & Services Expansion
Electricity, water, internet, and waste systems follow infrastructure.
4. Commercial & Industrial Boom
Warehouses, retail, schools, and residential projects flock to newly connected zones.
5. Long-Term Capital Gains
Land near roads can triple in 5–10 years. Infrastructure transforms wilderness into wealth zones.
