What makes littleluxeliving different from a traditional interior designer?

littleluxeliving is not a traditional interior design service. We are a turnkey furnishing system created specifically for investment apartments.

Rather than bespoke design projects with open-ended timelines and evolving scope, we operate through a structured model with defined aesthetics, fixed scope, staged payments, and delivery within 12 weeks.

Our focus is commercial readiness: transforming empty studio and one-bedroom apartments into fully furnished, revenue-ready spaces designed for tenants or short-stay guests.

How does the process work?

Once you submit your enquiry form with your property details, we review your submission and invite you to a complimentary consultation if your project is a fit.

During the consultation, we walk you through the full furnishing system including the three curated aesthetics, the scope of the furnishing service, our procurement approach, available add-on services, and pricing structure.

If you choose to proceed, you receive a follow-up email inviting you to create your account on our platform. Once activated, you confirm your booking by selecting your aesthetic, choosing any add-on services, and completing your initial payment.

From there, your furnishing project begins. We take full ownership of sourcing, procurement, installation, and styling.

Your apartment is delivered fully furnished and ready for occupancy within 12 weeks.

Do I need to be in Nairobi during the furnishing, launch or property management process?

No. The entire system is designed primarily for remote investors. Once your project is confirmed, we manage all execution on the ground, including sourcing, coordination, installation, and styling.

Structured updates are shared at key stages so you remain informed without needing to be involved in day-to-day decisions.

Do you take on properties outside of Nairobi?

At present, littleluxeliving focuses exclusively on studio and one-bedroom apartments within Nairobi.

This proximity constraint allows us to maintain a highly refined and efficient furnishing system tailored specifically to small-space execution.

Do you take on properties with more than 1 bedroom?

At present, littleluxeliving focuses exclusively on studio and one-bedroom investment apartments within Nairobi. We may expand into two-bedroom apartments in the future, but this is not currently within our scope.

How many apartment units can you take on from each client at any given time?

For investors with multiple units, we manage a maximum of three apartments per client at any given time.

Will my apartment look the same as others with the same aesthetic?

No. While each project follows one of three defined aesthetics, every apartment is uniquely composed. We use a combination of sourcing methods including bespoke pieces, vintage finds, and curated retail items to ensure consistency in style direction while maintaining individuality in execution.

What is included in the furnishing and apartment setup service?

At littleluxeliving, furnishing and apartment set up means the complete setup of an apartment for immediate occupancy. It encompasses everything required to transform an empty property into a fully equipped home, from furniture and décor to bed and bath linens, kitchenware, tableware, soft furnishings, everyday essentials and carefully considered finishing touches. Where selected, the service also includes the sourcing and installation of major electrical appliances.

How much do littleluxeliving's services cost?

Furnishing and full apartment set up starts from USD 15,900, while add-on services start from USD 120.

littleluxeliving’s pricing model and payment structure are designed for clarity, flexibility and predictable delivery across all projects.

Detailed fee structure, payment options and an itemised list of all deliverables are shared during the complimentary consultation call to guide decision-making. Click ‘Get Started’ to complete a simple form with your details, and we’ll be in touch to arrange your call.

Outside of the package fees, are there any additional or hidden charges?

No. All furnishing and add-on services are fully defined and pricing is standardised.

All costs are included within the selected services, with no additional charges at any stage of the project.

What are the add-on services and when are they selected?

Add-on services are designed to support property launch and management.

  • The Launch Partner Package supports listing readiness through photography, marketing assets, listing copy, and key connectivity coordination. It is delivered within the 12-week furnishing timeline.
  • The Property Management add-on focuses on guest relations, check-in and check-out and co-ordinating basic household repairs, short term (1 month).

Add-on services are selected and confirmed at client onboarding, before project commencement. The property management add-on service can be activated up to three (3) months post apartment furnishing handover.

Will I receive an itemised list of what is included in the furnishing, add-ons and property management packages?

Yes. During your consultation, you will be walked through what each package covers; details of the same will be provided to you post consultation. This serves as your official reference throughout the project.

How do payments work?

Clients have the option to pay in full upfront or instalments aligned with key milestones across the 12-week delivery process and to provide necessary reassurances to both the littleluxeliving team and clients.

Payment instalments work as follows:

60% – at booking and project confirmation
20% – Week 6
10% – Week 8
10% – Week 10 (final installment prior to handover at Week 12)

Payment confirmations are shared with each transfer and reminders are sent ahead of upcoming payments.

Can I make changes once the project has started?

No. Once your aesthetic and scope are confirmed at onboarding, the project runs on a fixed execution model. This ensures consistency, efficiency, and delivery within the 12-week timeframe.

How is my interest protected during the project?

All projects are governed by a formal service agreement that clearly outlines scope, timelines, deliverables, and responsibilities for both parties. This agreement is explained during the consultation and must be signed by both the client and littleluxeliving before any work commences.

Do I need multiple properties to engage littleluxeliving's services?

No. We work with both single-property and multi-unit investors, as long as properties fall within our defined scope. For multiple units, we manage a maximum of three apartments per client at any given time.

Can I use this for short-term rentals like Airbnb and Booking.com?

Yes. The furnishing system is designed to support both short-stay and long-term rental strategies depending on your investment goals.

How do I track my booking, payments, project progress, and related documents?

Following consultation, clients who choose to proceed are invited to create a secure, password-protected account on the littleluxeliving client portal.

This portal serves as your central project dashboard, where you can view booking details, payment progress, project updates, and key files and documents throughout the process.
Documents such as your service agreement, project outlines, written materials, and final photography assets are managed through the platform. Your account also securely stores your contact details and relevant property information for project administration.

What do you need from me before the project starts?

Before commencement, we require a consultation call(complimentary), completed profile with all key information, confirmed booking including either full upfront payment or first instalment depending on what you prefer, a signed service agreement and access to the apartment.

What happens during the consultation and how long roughly does it take?

The consultation is a single structured session following review of your enquiry form.
It is designed to confirm scope, alignment, pricing and next steps before onboarding.

The consultation session lasts approximately 45mins – 1 hour.

What payment methods do you accept?

Payments are made via secure bank transfer via the website.

When does the 12-week timeline begin?

The 12-week delivery timeline begins once your booking is confirmed, initial payment is received, and the apartment is ready for access. Any dependencies such as delayed handover from the developer or lack of site access may affect the start date.

Do you guarantee rental income or occupancy?

No. While our furnishing system is designed to improve market readiness, presentation, and guest appeal, rental performance depends on factors such as pricing strategy, location, market demand, and platform management.

Can I book in advance before my apartment is ready?

Yes, bookings can be made upto 3 months before the property is handed over from the developer. Early consultation and advance booking are recommended where completion dates are known, as they allow project planning and scheduling ahead of handover.
