Scoping call
A 20 to 30 minute call with the person who will do the checks. No obligation.
Scheduled at a time that suits you
The Site Verdict
One project. Company, construction-authority and agent-register checks; the title and lease read from the register, where a lease extension or change of use counts only once it is registered; a check that names, dates and unit counts agree across the offer letter, sale agreement, approvals and title, and that each approval is current and held by the seller; the dated independent video record and who filmed it; a physical site visit with our own dated photographs and footage; a written report (the dossier) naming what was confirmed and what was NOT; a call to walk you through it.
Dossier within 7 working days of engagement
The Plan
A shortlist across several projects: which verified developers fit what you are after, which are held and why, the escrow and power-of-attorney route for your country, and the order to do things in, with a statement-of-account request to send the developer after each payment. Credited in full against your first Site Verdict.
Written plan within 7 working days of the scoping call
Build Watch
After you buy: a quarterly revisit with dated footage and a short descriptive note on what is visibly there, until handover, with the dates on which the project approvals lapse set beside what we saw, and the statement-of-account request to keep your payment record straight. We record what we saw and when. We never state a completion percentage.
One visit per quarter until handover
The statement-of-account request the Plan and Build Watch use is free to copy: ask the developer for a running statement after every payment.
How it works
From the first message to the dossier
- Tell us about the project. Send the short form below with what you are buying and where you live. We reply by email to find a time that suits your time zone.
- The free call. Twenty to thirty minutes with the person who would do the work. We look at the project together and say plainly whether an engagement is worth your money.
- The checks and the visit. We check the registers, gather the dated independent video record, and visit the site ourselves.
- The dossier and a call. Dossier within 7 working days of engagement, then a call to walk you through it.
The written report
What the dossier covers
The company behind the project, its approvals, who is selling it to you, the independent video record, our own dated site visit, the title, and where your money would go. One section gathers everything we could not confirm, and every line says what we tried.

The fee is per project, not per unit. Paid by the buyer only; never contingent on a sale; your advocate and bank handle every shilling of the transaction.
How you pay. We raise an invoice in your name and you settle it by bank transfer to Space Kenya Networks Limited, our registered company, in Kenyan shillings; the US dollar figure beside the price is indicative and for reference only. Payment never goes to an individual, and the account details reach you on the invoice itself rather than in a chat message.
Why you can trust the answer
Buyers pay for SpaceKE Advisory. Developers may pay for clearly labelled placement, which never buys a verdict, a ranking or verification.
We are paid the same whether the answer is proceed or walk away. If we find a red flag and you walk, the fee carries to your next project for twelve months.

FAQ
Questions about SpaceKE Advisory
How long does it take?
Dossier within 7 working days of engagement, then a call to walk you through it. The free call comes first, at a time that suits you.
Can I use it from abroad?
Yes. We visit the site for you, the free call is at a time that suits your time zone, and the dossier arrives in writing.
Is the dossier legal advice or a valuation?
It is independent research, read alongside your advocate. It is not legal advice, a valuation, a survey or a recommendation to buy or not to buy; your advocate, your bank and your surveyor each do something it does not.
Who handles the purchase itself?
You do, with your own advocate and your bank. Space Kenya checks the project and reports what it found; the sale, the money and the paperwork stay with you and them.
What happens if you find a red flag?
We are paid the same whether the answer is proceed or walk away. If we find a red flag and you walk, the fee carries to your next project for twelve months.
Can I get a refund?
If we hold any business tie to the developer, we tell you before you pay and you can withdraw for a full refund. If either of us ends the engagement early, you keep what is delivered and the fee for the rest comes back, pro rata. A refund goes back the way you paid: a bank transfer is refunded by bank transfer to the account you paid from, and a card payment goes back to the card through our payment processor.
