The real estate and property development sector is growing fast. Many suburban areas or metropolitan centers have changed face with the modern facilities being erected day and night.
Renowned businessman Hamis Kiggundu is one of those who are playing a significant part in growing the real estate sector. Many know him for Ham Towers, Ham Shopping Mall, Ham Shopping Grounds, Nakivubo Stadium and the White House replica in Uganda, but Kiggundu has spread out in different parts of the country, establishing fancy estates only seen previously in magazines.

The well-planned ICT Gated Corporates Smart Homes Community with 500 Finished Corporate Smart Homes and Organized Virtual Customizable Smart Homes with house Plans. This makes it undoubtedly the largest and on ICT corporate smart homes community in Uganda.
The Ham Palm Villas have transformed Wakiso into an upscale residence indeed.
Ham says he is trying to introduce something new to the market.
“In my estate, I have introduced something that is new to the market. I am offering ICT corporate smart homes. I want to add value and class to our way of living which has not been the case in Uganda so far. I can see that it is being done in the European countries because I have also invested in the UK,” he says.
“By nature, God made a choice and put us where we belong. I am African and I am Ugandan. I am so proud of my country and I love it very much. Whatever I desire out there, I would want to do it here. Instead of me moving to a European country to work, I would rather work hard and make a difference here in Uganda.”
Ham adds that; “We should not leave Africa chasing our dreams but rather transform Africa Our Motherland into our dreamland based on Reason and Reality.”
Patrick Nelson Byekwaso, the Kajjansi Town Council Chairperson, says that Ham Palm Villas are “the only smart homes in the area and a model for better housing and urbanization for a town struggling with planning.”
“Away from contributing to property tax, the planning offers ideas on how to enlarge and priotise organized development within the area,” Byekwaso says.
