As with all of Unity Homes projects for a very reasonable price ,the apartments will all be finished to the same excellent standard,\u201d Horsey noted<\/p>\n<p>The project comes third after the developer completed Unity West in Tatu City last year and Unity Gardens, in Eldoret, in 2018.<\/p>\n<p>The last two subsequent projects are located five-minute walk from the restaurants and shops of Tatu Central, the Central Business District (CBD) of Tatu City.<\/p>\n<p>According to the developer, over 500 direct jobs have been created on the Unity East project and has upskilled workers from general labourers to skilled workers.<\/p>\n<p>This has in turn made them earn more than twice as much as they would as general laborers.<\/p>\n<p>Horsey further explained that they have had over two years of incredible sales velocity due to their diverse product portfolio that caters for a broad array of buyers who are purchasing up to 50 apartments monthly.<\/p>\n<p>Unity Homes recently launched its latest project, Silver Hill at Tatu City, which features 100 designed townhouses.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
