04Process
A structured journey from first call to keys.
No surprises. No verbal-only commitments. No moving goalposts. Every LELI Developers engagement follows the same documented five-stage roadmap, with a fixed payment schedule pegged to verifiable construction milestones.

02Payment milestones
Pay against verifiable milestones — not promises.
Funds are released only when each named gate is reached and signed off by an independent structural engineer. If a milestone slips, your payment slips with it — never the other way round. Specific tranche amounts are agreed in your private, fixed-price contract.
- — Gate 01
Contract signing
Lawyer-reviewed contract executed in Kenya — and in the United States where applicable. Scope, design, BoQ and timeline locked in writing before any funds move.
- — Gate 02
Roofing
Walls, slabs, and a watertight roof complete and certified by an independent structural engineer. Inspected on-site, evidenced by drone footage and dated photos.
- — Gate 03
Finishes
Tiling, joinery, electrical and plumbing fittings, doors, windows, painting and external works complete — verified line-by-line against the signed BoQ.
- — Gate 04
Keys handover
Snag list resolved, certificate of completion issued, manuals and warranties handed over with the keys. Twelve-month defects-liability period begins.
