EBOLA IN REAL ESTATE: THE SILENT THREAT THAT CAN SHUT DOWN AN ENTIRE PROPERTY BUSINESS
When most people think about Ebola, they imagine hospitals, quarantine centers, hazmat suits, and terrifying news headlines. Very few people stop to think about one dangerous reality: the real estate industry is one of the fastest ways a deadly virus can silently spread from one person to another.
Every property viewing, every rent collection meeting, every handover ceremony, every crowded construction site, every open house, and every client interaction can become a ticking time bomb when Ebola enters the picture.
One infected individual can unknowingly walk into an office, shake hands with agents, touch door handles, sit in waiting rooms, inspect apartments, visit construction sites, or sign agreements, and within days, an entire real estate company could collapse into panic, quarantine, lawsuits, business closure, and public fear.
In real estate, trust and physical interaction are everything. Unfortunately, those same interactions can become the perfect channel for a deadly out

IT'S TIME TO EMBRACE EXCLUSIVE LISTINGS OVER OPÈN LISTINGS.
During an online interaction with Shirley Kongai, the President of AREA Uganda, on LinkedIn, she responded to one of my newsletter articles by posting a comment with the exact same title as this blog. Her post therefore inspired me to write on the topic. I "liked" and "commented" on her post, even though her stance contrasts with my "open market capitalistic ideology." Here's why.
Given the current chaos in our local real estate market added to the fact that too many agents are selling the same properties, it's clear that exclusive listings could help solve many of the duplication issues on the Real Estate Database (RED) and other platfoms, which often lead to inconsistencies.
While the traditional model of open listings may offer flexibility, exclusive listings have several advantages that can lead to better outcomes. However, it's also essential to acknowledge the potential downsides. Let's explore why property owners in Uganda should consider embracing exclusi

WHY SOME MORTGAGES FAIL AND SOME SUCCEED.
A mortgage is a major financial commitment that many people take on in order to purchase a home. However, not all mortgages are created equal, and some may fail while others succeed. In this blog, we will explore some of the reasons why some mortgages fail and others succeed.
Interest Rates: One of the primary factors that determines the success or failure of a mortgage is the interest rate. Mortgages with higher interest rates can be difficult to pay off and may result in default or foreclosure. In contrast, mortgages with lower interest rates can be more manageable, making them easier to pay off over time.
Loan Terms: The terms of a mortgage can also play a significant role in its success or failure. Mortgages with longer terms can result in lower monthly payments but may end up costing more in interest over the life of the loan. On the other hand, mortgages with shorter terms may have higher monthly payments but may ultimately be less expensive in the long run.

100 FASTEST GROWING LOCATIONS IN AND AROUND KAMPALA CITY FOR BUYING RESIDENTIAL LAND.
Is your home area one of the fastest growing locations around Kampala?
Kampala's real estate market is rapidly expanding, with numerous areas around the city experiencing significant growth. Based on the latest RED statistical analytics, I have identified the top 100 fastest-growing locations for buying land or houses, arranged and ranked in order of growth.
This boom is driven by rapid urbanization, a growing economy, and increasing demand and supply in these areas. A key observation is that the fastest-growing areas are "generally" more expensive. However, there are exceptions like Kololo, which, despite being very expensive, is ranked 39th due to its slower growth. This slow growth is attributed to the limited supply of land and low demand caused by high price points.
In this blog, I highlight a selection of these promising locations, offering an overview of the factors contributing to their growth and what makes each area unique and attractive for residen
