Double Diamond, An American company specializing in the acquisition, management, marketing and construction of some of the most sort after upscale resort facilities in the US has announced plans to introduce its products to the Kenyan market.
The move is said to have been inspired largely by an unusually large number of Kenyans living in the US who have purchased some of the company’s products. The initiative will see some middle income Kenyan earners have a chance at owning property in the US.
The firm, a Texas based developer of residential golf communities and residential homes, is set to host a sponsored information dinner in Nairobi at the Hotel Emerald on April 15.
During the dinner event, the company will unveil a wide range of products mostly in real estate and membership in an exclusive resort club with a long list of indoor and outdoor facilities.
Prior to the dinner event set for Friday evening, it is believed that an advance team of the company’s top marketing executives will be in Nairobi beginning April 11, giving out free tickets and information packages.
Apart from the Eagle Rock Resort located at the Blue Mountains in Pennsylvania, the company also runs Lost Lake Resort in Forestburgh, New York, Rock Creek at Lake Texoma, the Cliffs Resort at Possum Kingdom lake, the Retreat at Cleburne and White Bluff Resort all in Texas.
It is estimated that more than 400 Kenyans living in the US have already bought lots (plots) mostly in Eagle Rock Resort located in Hazleton, Pennsylvania.
It is also believed that more 150 Kenyans in Kenya already own property in either one of Double Diamond’s six resorts located in Pennsylvania, Texas, or New York.
Most of the Kenyans at home who managed to buy property in these locations did so during their visit to the US who were introduced to the program by their Kenyan American hosts.
