I’m 45, earn Sh110,000. How do I raise Sh6 million to buy a home or buy land?
Many Saccos are now offering competitive home development loans without requiring guarantors, so it would be worthwhile to check if your Sacco provides such options.
My name is Lewis, and I am 45. I’m divorced and live alone, and I have children. I feel I’m not aligned in my financial journey. I would want to own a home in three to four years, and have a passive income of Sh120,000 per month. The target for the house is Sh6 million. It can be either an apartment of Sh6 million or a plot of Sh3 million and construction of Sh3 million.
My net income is Sh110,000. My budget is as follows: Rent: Sh17,000, Electricity: Sh2,000, Water: Sh1,000, Wifi Sh3,000 (This I need since I use it for side hustles), School fees Sh20,000, children’s food/upkeep Sh10,000, Parents Sh5,000. My shopping and groceries are Sh5,000 (these are mostly taken care of by side hustles). Transport is taken care of by the company. Miscellaneous and entertainment I cover from side gigs.
