The highest investment of Kshs. 4.2 Billion in real estate in Nairobi County went to the Proposed
Renewal to Approved Plan No. CPF - AL711 (Apartments - 17 Levels) to be developed by Nirbhau Gulshanventures Ltd in Kilelelshwa, Westlands Sub County. The approval earned the County revenue amounting to Kshs. 213, 959.
On average the estimated value of building developments approved was Kshs. 49, 365, 600 with
the submission fee averaging Kshs. 227, 869.

15% (60) - Public Class (social halls, religious buildings, libraries, schools, etc.)
8% (31) - Warehouse Class (industries, factories, and go downs)
From the data, at least 0.83% of the 480 736 acres of the county were approved to be under some sort of construction or renovation with Lang’ata, Westlands, Dagoretti North and Dagoretti South being the areas where most land activity was taking place during that period in that order.
PERMIT APPLICATION ACTIVITY BY SUB-COUNTY
Lang’ata and Westlands Sub Counties led by number of approvals, 68 and 64 respectively, as similarly witnessed in previous months. Dagoretti North took the third spot with 42 approvals and Roysambu, Dagoretti South and Kamukunji came fourth all with 27 approvals.

GRAPHS DEPICTING VALUE OF PROJECTS APPROVED AND THEIR REVENUE CONTRIBUTION TO NAIROBI COUNTY.
Out of 314 projects, 118 cost ten million and below, 143 cost between ten and fifty million and 53projects were valued over fifty million.
As the building code requires, most of the submission fee (95%) was dependent on the plinth area which in turn dictated the cost of the investment apart from a few outliers as shown in the graphs. However the amount of revenue a project contributed to the county did not guarantee them faster approval or priority in service, as evidenced by the graph above showing that both high paying and low paying projects took a few days to be approved.
