So You Got Scammed Buying Property in Kenya in 2023? BLAME YOURSELF!

At what point do we willingly define the madness of real estate firms going under with investor billions as a multi-dimensional problem that needs to be debated outside the myopic lens of greedy, unscrupulous property sellers and developers? For whom is it convenient that this one-sided narrative is told repeatedly? Certainly not the investors losing their money. And somebody needs to boldly let them know that they are culpable in their own fate!

On every occasion, the attendant slew of bad press only serves to erode the credibility of genuine operators in the real estate industry, casting aspersions on the nature of the industry as inherently corrupt. And while this may be true, nobody is willing to address the problem with broader strokes - and that is that this endemic problem also requires a fiscally inept "investor in the mix. We can ask for intervention from the government, but will this be enough to address the issue? Not even likely!

Off the bat, today’s episode is a deep castigation of anyone who is Still Being Scammed Through Property Scams in Kenya in 2023.

They are out here telling the world how developer X or land-selling entity Y didn’t keep their promises to “investors”. And, they want you to believe them.

In 2023?

If that’s you, tell it to the birds. I don’t wish to hear any of it. It’s your fault.

Yes, sorry for the pain you’re experiencing. I refuse to hold your hand and cry with you. You are to blame. You went to do something you had no idea how to do and then somehow, the rest of us are supposed to mourn with you?

No. Don’t call us for that pity party. Cry in your corner because you have refused to learn how to wade through the murk of the Kenyan property market. It’s OK, hold it against me for telling you the truth. In any case, now that you have gone through the loss, I am clearly not your enemy. Unsympathetic, yes. But I don’t know who would be because if it has happened and you did nothing except cry foul, knowing full well that it has happened many times in the past, then all I can say is that you courted that disaster. Now that it has been visited upon you, stop your complaints. You made that bed. Now lie in it!
