Affordable Housing: What the new rules mean


Hey Realtor,

Kenya’s new housing regulations could unlock loans of up to KSh 4M at 3% interest. Deposits are lower, repayment terms are longer, and rural homeowners may finally get better access to financing.

But the big question remains: will this work as planned?

We’ve broken down who qualifies, what you need, and the gaps to watch.

Scarcity sells.

The fewer the options, the higher the demand. Strange? Not really — it’s psychology.

In this video, I break down a classic experiment that proves why scarcity makes people act faster — and how you can use the same principle in your property listings.

Here’s what you’ll take away:
✅ Why buyers move quicker when they feel they might miss out
✅ How to position your listings so urgency feels natural
✅ Simple phrases that trigger action without sounding pushy

If you’ve ever struggled with slow-moving listings, this shift could change everything.
