Suppose you buy raw land at Ksh. 200,000 and let it appreciate. You can sell the land some years to come at Ksh. 300,000, and you’ll earn a cool Ksh. 100,000 without breaking a sweat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you find out that your land has valuable natural resources such as water and minerals, the price of it will automatically skyrocket. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also buy a home and sell it later at a higher price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you buy a rental property, it will appreciate if you maintain it well. Don’t expect it to appreciate if you don’t do simple things like renewing the painting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once property equity increases, you can use it as collateral against a bigger loan to buy more property. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Alternatively, you can always sell your property at a higher price than the buying price and make profits. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Again, you will make profits if you increase your rental income gradually. However, you should improve the property’s appearance before you increase rental income. For example, you can change iron sheets, repaint, or add tiles to your houses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
