How to verify land ownership and avoid fraud when buying land in Kenya.

Land Fraud is Common in Kenya

Always verify title deeds at the Ministry of Lands before making any payment. Never rely solely on documents provided by the seller. Use a licensed lawyer for all transactions.

Freehold Title

Absolute ownership of land for an indefinite period. The owner has full rights to use, lease, or sell the land without time limits.

Leasehold Title

Ownership for a fixed period (typically 99 or 999 years) granted by the government or a private landlord. After expiry, ownership reverts to the lessor.

Sectional Title

Ownership of a unit (e.g., apartment or office) within a multi-unit development, plus shared ownership of common areas like corridors, gardens, and parking.

Mailo Title

A historical land tenure system in Uganda, but also found in some parts of Kenya (e.g., coastal region). Combines freehold and leasehold elements; the 'mailo' owner holds the land in perpetuity but may grant leases to tenants.
