Buying a home in a new country can feel overwhelming — and Kenya is no exception. Many foreigners face confusing land laws, unresponsive agents, inflated prices, and the constant fear of falling for scams. Without trusted guidance, it’s easy to end up in the wrong location, overpay for a property, or lose money through shady deals.
The frustration of trying to handle everything from abroad — and the dream of owning a home in Kenya can quickly turn into a nightmare, and that’s where Boma Life Africa steps in.
We guide you personally based on your lifestyle, safety preferences, and long-term goals — whether you’re looking for peace and space in the suburbs or access to the city hustle.
With Boma Life Africa, you’re not alone in the process.
We help you with:
Personalized guidance on where to live based on your goals and lifestyle
Referrals to vetted real estate agents and lawyers
Housing consultation and virtual walkthrough assistance
Legal and documentation guidance
Optional relocation concierge (airport pickup, area tours, local integration)
This is how we do it:
We’ll connect you to licensed agents and legal experts we’ve vetted ourselves, so you’re not blindly trusting online listings or dealing with shady middlemen. If you’re not in Kenya yet, we can join video walkthroughs on your behalf or organize viewings around your travel dates — while providing you with clear insight on the neighborhood, value, and red flags you need to know.
Need to fly in and view homes in person? We’ll arrange your airport pickup, help you find temporary accommodation, and even take you on a local area tour so you can experience what life in that neighborhood feels like before committing.
We can recommend where to shop, where to bank, and how to get connected locally — because we know it’s not just about buying property, it’s about building a new life.
Not every buyer needs the same level of support — that’s why we offer flexible packages tailored to where you are in your journey.
Whether you’re just getting started, actively comparing neighborhoods, or ready to fly in and view homes, we have a package that fits your needs. Each one is designed to save you time, protect you from common pitfalls, and give you the confidence to make smart decisions in the Kenyan property market.
