It is not easy acquiring land and building a house in Uganda. The process is tedious that many people choose to buy already built houses.
However, the quality, price and location where the house is located matter a lot – as well as – the support process of acquiring the house.
When you own a decent home in a decent and safe neighbourhood, you and your family are guaranteed the most important things in one’s life, namely; better health, freedom, independence, stability and security.
In a country like Uganda with a shortage of more than 2 million housing units, Buganda Kingdom and Guoji Group (company which runs Mirembe Villas Kigo) have provided the solution that is hard to beat. It is the solution that is pocket friendly, while ticking all boxes one is looking for in a home to buy.
With about 100 units completed in Mirembe Estate Sentema, these are reasons making this Kabaka project tick.
1. Quality of house at affordable price
The Kingdom of Buganda in partnership with a Chinese real estate firm, Guoji Group, have proved they can build high quality homes. Seen Mirembe Villas in Kigo! Right. Now, the new estate in Sentema is targeting low income earners but with quality of homes you cannot find anywhere.
Sentema estate is an opportunity for any hardworking person to live in a decent and safe neighbourhood at the most affordable rates.
The homes are built at world class standards – with the best materials in the market. Whichever size of house you choose to buy, you have services including garbage management, water and electricity, security, play area and access to the shopping centre.
No wonder, Katikkiro of Buganda Charles Peter Mayiga lauded this project saying, our “people will overcome the financial stress of building quality houses.”
