A real estate and sustainable energy solutions firm, Kairos Hof Consultants Ltd, has launched a housing model that meets the socio-economic needs of the young people, who they described as digital nomads.
Speaking Tuesday during the signing of agreement for the construction of an initial 100 units of apartments in a 17-block-five story building in Idu, Abuja, the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Kairos Hof, Olagoke Fagbohun, said the Z’Korting project will carter to the exclusive needs of the youth who work in the digital sector.
He said the product is targeted at young fresh minds within their Hof City project in Idu district, adding that it is designed to appeal to the young minds who would want to live, work, play and eat in their exclusive spaces.
He said the estate would guarantee high speed internet, 24/7 power and networking opportunities that allow the digital generation to work remotely, and which would be easy to sublet or rent.
Also, the Director Business Development and Technology of Kairos Hof, Ojehomon Anetor, said the Z Korting is an effort to encourage the youth working in the diaspora to own homes in Nigeria that appeal to their taste and to also invest in a niche that tickles their fantasy.
He, however, said checks would be put in place to ensure only those working legitimately can invest in the project in order to not fuel the misconception that Kairos Hof has created a Yahoo Yahoo hub.
He said, “This is the new way people live these days in certain climes and it is one of which is appealing to the digital nomads and the young generation who have created a digital economy around how they live. The structure is designed from research across different parts of the world and we are looking at offering a world class facility for those who will be keying into this project.
“The younger generation is not well captured into the housing investment structure we have in this part of the world and Kairos Hof is trying to lead that drive by creating a product that carters to this particular class of people.”
He said the product would encourage the youth ranging from age 18 to 25 years to own their houses and to also invest in the real estate.
