Frequently Asked Questions

This varies by property. Some high-end furnished rentals include utilities like water and electricity in the rent price. Others charge utilities separately. Always confirm what's included before signing the lease agreement.

Kilimani, Westlands, Karen and Lavington are among the most sought-after areas for furnished houses due to their proximity to business districts and amenities. More affordable options can be found in areas like Lang'ata and South C.
