If you own 1–20 units, this is the playbook for treating your rental as a real business. We cover the legal basics (rent control, tenancy agreements, eviction process), the financial basics (MRI, depreciation, what KRA actually wants), and the operational basics — collecting rent on time, handling repairs, vetting tenants without breaking the law.

Written specifically for the Kenyan rental market: Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret, Nakuru, and the upcountry towns where most landlords actually operate.
