On August 20, 2019, Username Investment Ltd. was honored with the coveted 2019 Diaspora Market Land Selling Company Award at the Real Estate Excellence Awards Gala Dinner held at Movenpick Hotel in Westlands, Nairobi.
The award recognized the company's exceptional role in positively impacting Kenyans living in the diaspora through the provision of affordable investment opportunities back home.
Receiving the award, Reuben Kimani, CEO of Username Investment Ltd., expressed his gratitude, saying, "We are honored to receive this prestigious award a few days after our team returned from the UK and USA after 3 months of reaching out to Kenyans living and working in various cities and states with affordable real estate investment opportunities back home."
Reuben noted that Kenyans living in the diaspora often face challenges in accessing information on investment opportunities in Kenya. In response, Username Investment Ltd. has taken the initiative to facilitate the availability of this information, enabling Kenyans living abroad to become landowners in a hassle-free way.
Since its inception, the company has successfully helped over 8,000 clients living in Kenya and abroad to acquire land. In the first five months of 2019, diaspora remittances stood at KSh118.9 billion, a 3.8 per cent increase on the same period in 2018.
Username Investments has stood out for having a record of delivering over 6,000 title deeds to investors living in Kenya and abroad. The company's innovative website allows investors to purchase land online, and a dedicated Relationship Manager is assigned to each client to guide them through their investment journey.
On the same event, Username Investments also won The 2019 Land Agent of the Year award for its unique role in offering affordable land with prices starting from as low as Ksh 199,000.
