Verifying a Title Deed in Bungoma — Step-by-Step

Before paying any deposit on a plot in Bungoma, you should: (1) request the title number from the seller, (2) run an official search and confirm registered ownership, encumbrances and any caveats, (3) physically visit the parcel with a registered surveyor to confirm beacons match the deed plan, and (4) for agricultural land, obtain a Land Control Board consent before transfer.

Zoning & Sub-division Rules

Always verify the latest rules with the sub-county physical planner before committing to a sub-division.

Costs Beyond the Sticker Price

Budget an additional ~7-8% on top of the asking price for transfer costs: 4% stamp duty (urban; 2% for designated rural areas), 1.5% legal fees for an advocate to handle the conveyance, a one-off registration fee (KES 5,000), valuation fee (KES 10,000-25,000 depending on plot value), and a Land Control Board consent fee for agricultural land. Allow 4-6 weeks for the Lands Registry to complete the transfer once stamp duty is paid.
