Know before you buy Compare 3
Understanding land tenure is crucial when buying property in Kenya. The Land Act 2012 governs the three main types of land ownership: freehold, leasehold, and sectional title. Each has distinct characteristics that affect your rights, obligations, and long-term investment value.
Freehold is the most absolute form of land ownership in Kenya, granting the holder indefinite ownership of both the land and any improvements on it. Governed by the Land Act 2012, freehold title is registered under the Registration of Titles Act or the Land Registration Act.
Buyers seeking long-term family land or agricultural investment
Leasehold grants the holder rights to use land for a specified period, typically 99 years for residential or 45-99 years for commercial, after which ownership reverts to the freeholder (government or private entity). Governed by the Land Act 2012, leasehold is common in urban areas and government-scheme lands.
Buyers looking for affordable urban property or investment with lower entry cost
Sectional title is a form of ownership for units within a multi-unit development (e.g., apartments, townhouses). Governed by the Sectional Properties Act 2020, it grants individual ownership of a unit plus shared ownership of common areas (e.g., gardens, parking).
