Financing

For buyers considering a mortgage, Block can help you approach lenders and prepare your application. As this is off-plan, financing terms and timing can differ from a completed property. Financing may be available (subject to approval and each lender’s terms) through partners including Absa · Stanbic · NCBA · KCB · HFC · Standard Chartered · Prime Bank.

Buying from the diaspora

Well suited to Kenyans living abroad, with remote purchases supported from start to finish. A valid passport or Alien ID is sufficient; Block can assist with KRA PIN registration and guide you through stamp duty (currently 4%); and the entire purchase can be handled remotely, with clear updates at each stage of construction.

Why It Works for Homeowners

  • The most attainable entry into central Kilimani — a home of your own from KES 3M in a blue-chip neighbourhood.
  • Low-maintenance, lock-up-and-go living — an efficient layout that is easy to run.
  • A walkable, connected lifestyle — steps from Yaya Centre, with the CBD, Westlands and Upper Hill close by.
  • Full building amenities — gym, pool, co-working and more on your doorstep.
  • A flexible, interest-free path to ownership — a manageable deposit spread over construction.

Why It Works for Investors

Block does not make rental or return projections. Instead, we point buyers to the fundamentals worth weighing on their own merits:

  • A blue-chip, central address. Kilimani is one of Nairobi’s most established and consistently desirable residential neighbourhoods, walkable and well-connected near Yaya Centre.
  • The most accessible price point. At from KES 3M, the studio is the lowest entry into Baystar and among the more affordable ways into central Kilimani.
  • Off-plan entry. Buying ahead of Q2 2028 completion secures current pricing on a flexible, interest-free plan.
  • A finite offering. Baystar is a single tower with a limited number of compact units — a specific, finite product rather than open, ongoing supply.

We are glad to talk through these fundamentals openly and help you decide whether the studio fits your plans — without overpromising on performance.
