This milestone achievement paves the way for Future Construkt to mobilize institutional capital and implement its Kenya-focused real estate investment strategy, centering on the development of large-scale, green affordable housing schemes and sustainable asset management of institutional-grade commercial property portfolios, with investors standing to benefit from tax-efficient legislation governing REITs.
Paul Kavuma, Founder and CEO of Construkt Africa and Executive Director of Future Construkt, hailed the approval as a pivotal milestone.
“As Africa’s economies continue to urbanize, with urbanization projected to grow 2.5 times by 2050, the demand for quality housing and business premises is becoming increasingly critical. Construkt Africa’s real estate strategy aligns with the vision for smart, green cities and modern, sustainable communities, delivering essential services and modern facilities that enhance infrastructure, connectivity, and the built environment.
With Kenya’s improving macroeconomic environment characterized by rising GDP, declining inflation, and falling interest rates REITs offer a compelling avenue for inflation-hedged income generation and capital appreciation,” Kavuma remarked.
He added that “Future Construkt is dedicated to providing sophisticated investors institutional-grade, professionally managed, CMA-regulated REITs as vehicles to capitalize on Kenya’s progressive affordable housing legislation and participate in the expected recovery of prime commercial real estate, particularly in vibrant urban centres, without the burden and complexity of direct property ownership or management”
