Editors Note

Welcome to the latest issue of CM Property Digest (CMPD), your trusted source for legal and industry insights into the dynamic East African property market. This particular edition is packed with well-researched articles discussing the following topics: 

  • How Technology is Disrupting the Real Estate Industry: A two-part interview article exploring how technology is changing the way we manage property. Watch out for our next issue for the second part. 
  • The Rent-to-Own Property Ownership Landscape in Kenya: A collaborative article by @Cindy Terry from CMPD and @Cynthia Kitolo of @Property Boutique. This guide provides valuable insights for those considering rent-to-own property ownership in Kenya. 
  • Uganda’s Real Estate Regulations: An article by @Laura Martha Tumwesigye that will ensure your knowledge of Uganda’s real estate legal landscape is up to date. 
  • A Comprehensive Discourse on Share Certificates and Share Warrants in Tanzania: A meticulously drafted article by @Harry Mbise that will help you understand the differences. 
  • Harnessing Rwanda’s Land to Transform its Agricultural Sector: This article by @Elias Tugume and @Counsel A. Arrey-Ako from our Rwanda team discusses the opportunities and challenges of using land to develop the agricultural sector in Rwanda. 

I am particularly excited about the article on the influence of technology in real estate. As a long-time resident of East Africa, I have witnessed how technology has transformed our lives and work dynamics. This article provides a glimpse into how technology is also having a major impact on the real estate industry, both in terms of opportunities and challenges. 

We would also like to extend an invitation to our upcoming online webinar, hosted by @KPDA, tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. This session will be led by Cindy Terry and @Ambrose Waigwa and will focus on the nuances of Green Building Regulation. Details are available on the @KPDA website. 

Finally, I would like to take this opportunity to thank our talented team of designers and marketers for their brilliant work on this issue. @Kevin Kimani, @Anne Kaesa, @Cliff Odhiambo, @Veronica Ndung’u, and Joseph Ndung’u have all contributed their unique vision and artistry to create a magazine that truly embodies the spirit of CM Property Digest. 

Sincerely, 

The CM Property Digest Team
