Freehold

Freehold is the most absolute form of land ownership in Kenya, granting the holder indefinite ownership of the land and any improvements.

Pros

  • Full control over land use (subject to zoning)
  • No ground rent or lease fees
  • Easier to finance and sell
Watch out for
  • Higher purchase price compared to leasehold
  • Owner bears all maintenance and land rate costs
  • May require more due diligence to verify title history
Best for

Leasehold

Leasehold grants the holder the right to use and occupy land for a specified period, typically 99 years (or 999 years for some older grants).

Governed by the Sectional Properties Act 2020.

Pros
  • Individual ownership of a unit with shared common areas
  • Managed by a homeowners' association (HOA) for maintenance
