How AKREs work
Hodhi operates by unitizing each property into a finite number of AKREs. Rental income is retained and invested in long-term fixed-interest government securities, so AKRE value grows through property appreciation and compounded returns over a 20-year term.
The value flow
Property
Each property is unitized into a finite number of AKREs.
Rent
Rental income is retained by the property SPV, not paid out.
Government bonds
Rent is invested in long-term fixed-interest securities, held to maturity.
AKRE grows
Value compounds through appreciation and bond returns over 20 years.
The app journey
The Hodhi AKRE App is powered by the Nairobi Securities Exchange. All transactions are handled by licensed brokers such as Faida Investment Bank, with payments via M-PESA or debit/credit cards.

2. Browse
View each property: location, type, units, value, yield, vacancy and AKRE value history.
3. Buy
Choose a quantity, see the full cost including the 2% broker fee, and pay once.
4. Borrow
Use your AKRE value as collateral and receive credit instantly in your mobile or bank wallet.
What buying looks like
A single AKRE costs KES 50 at listing. Hodhi earns a one-time fee on AKREs sold — no share of future property income, bond income or appreciation.
