Frequently Asked Questions

In Sheywe's real estate market, 'unfurnished' means the house is sold completely empty without any furniture or appliances included. The property will have all structural elements (walls, floors, ceilings), fixed installations (kitchen cabinets, bathroom fixtures), and basic utilities, but no movable furniture items.
While the purchase price is typically lower than furnished homes, buyers should budget additional costs including: furniture purchase (Ksh 500K-2M depending on quality), window treatments (Ksh 50K-150K), appliance acquisition (Ksh 200K-500K), and potentially some minor finishing work like painting or flooring upgrades.
The timeline varies based on your furnishing plans. You can occupy immediately if bringing existing furniture (1-2 weeks for moving). For complete furnishing from scratch, allow 1-3 months for furniture shopping and delivery. Many buyers phase their furnishing over several months while living in the property.
Nearby options include: Kakamega Town furniture stores (15-20 minute drive) offering mid-range options, Eldoret's larger showrooms (1.5 hours away) for premium selections, or Nairobi deliveries (6-8 hours) for high-end furnishings. Many buyers start with essentials locally then gradually add pieces from larger cities.
Mortgage terms are generally the same whether buying furnished or unfurnished properties. However, some lenders offer separate 'home furnishing loans' up to Ksh 2M with different terms that can be used alongside your main mortgage. Interest rates on these are typically higher than primary mortgages.
