Landlord FAQs

Answers to the questions we hear most from property owners and estate managers.

Does Bahati SGU really cover 100% of the installation cost?

Yes. Under the 10-Year Utility Easement (RW-SGU-LPA-001-v4.0), SGU funds and installs the manifold, risers, plumbing and every unit's meter — with zero CapEx and zero ongoing overhead for the property owner.

What happens when a tenant moves out?

The Tenant Vacancy Protocol keeps any unused credit in the departing tenant's own wallet. The incoming tenant inherits $0 infrastructure debt and can activate instantly via USSD — no handover paperwork for the landlord.

Will installation damage the building's structure?

No. Surface-mounted copper risers follow existing utility corridors, with zero cutting of primary load-bearing beams. Our aesthetic guidelines are available in the Resource Center.

What is Clause 7A?

Clause 7A is the Reputation Shield in every easement agreement — it prohibits caretaker markups on gas pricing, protecting tenant affordability and your property's brand equity.

What does the Feasibility Audit involve?

A short online pre-screening (location, ownership, technical readiness, contact details), followed by a free physical site visit from our Pilot Specialist team to confirm manifold placement and riser routing.

Is my building too small?

Our current pilot phase onboards buildings with 12+ units. Smaller buildings can still register interest — they're flagged for our next expansion phase.
