About Me

I am a 36 year old lady.Mother of 2 children .I am married .I am an accountant by profession and am currently employed at an insurance brokerage firm.Am also doing business as a side hustle to increase my income.

I come from rural parts of Kenya but currently residing at the city of Nairobi.I have a passion to grow to an independent woman.I want to provide the best for my family especially for my children.I want them to have the best education i can offer and thus willing to work even harder.

I am born again christian and and a member of PEFA Church Donholm

My Business

Am a full time employee at Primeken insurance brokers as an Accountant.I am also into Airbnb business. I currently have 2 units. 1 has been operational since Aug 2020 giving an monthly profit of $300 and the other unit has been operational since January 2023 giving a monthly profit of $ 500. This 2 units are in different areas and thus attracting different clientele. It is for this reason that i want to shift the less profitable unit to the 2nd area where the profit margin is bit higher. I need funding to upgrade some house items as well as transport and rent for new apartment in-order to meet the market demand in the new area.

Loan Proposal

Thank you lenders for the first loan which has really boasted my second hand business.With the loan i was able to increase my stock.Am happy i was able to clear the loan on time and maintained a 100%repayment.I am now appealing for my second loan of 14757.I intend to import new ladies jeggings and leggings from china which are on fashion at the moment.This loan together with my personal savings will help me achieve this goal.I will be able to make good profit on this clothes as i will be acquiring them at very low prices.I already have customers who have ordered the same.This coupled with my second hand business will help me grow more financially.Please lenders fund me and i will not disappoint you in repaying the loan just like the first loan.Thanks in advance and God bless.Best regards.

    My previous loan helped me acquire some electronics for my Airbnb making it more appealing to my clients. I have therefore maintained a 95% booking and increased my profits.

    I was able to purchase more items that were required in my Airbnb to make my unit more appealing to clients. I have since maintained 95% booking throughout the month.
