Boma Yangu, the pivotal platform for the affordable housing program and also the gateway for the programme said Kenyans who are keen on exploring and adding affordable houses to their wish must be able to pay nominal fee of Ksh 200 and must also have an eCitizen account.
The fee ensure access to a wide array of housing options, making the dream of house ownership more accessible. The house ownership depends on several factors including social Factors, Family status and time of deposit payment.
“When you register, your details will be verified by the relevant government agencies. To register, you must meet these conditions: Be a Kenyan citizen above 18 years of age and with a valid National Identity Card,” Boma Yangu explained.
“To activate your account, save a minimum of KSh 200. After activation, you can save any amount at any time, as many times as you wish through the various payment options available,” read Boma Yangu’s directive in part.
“The initial eligibility for allocation will depend on several factors such as when you reached the amount of deposit required, family status and other social factors, as well as the demand across various housing categories”.
“Those who do not get an allocation in the first instance will be put on a waiting list to ensure they have priority in subsequent allocations. For private sector projects, allocation will be done according to the terms and conditions of sale,” the statement read further.
