This also gives your Kenyan agent an idea of what range of homes to show you. Next is to decide whether it is an investment or the home you intend to live in yourself. Consider is it kids friendly, or suitable for an elderly parent or grandparent who you might want to come and live with you. Also take a look at the proximity of schools, hospitals, and public transportation. Another handy thing to have close by your home is a supermarket.

When the Kenyan property meets your criteria and your have not broken your price rule then you are ready to buy.
