Before you buy land in Karen C, verify boundaries with a professional survey. The Survey Act (Cap 299) requires accurate boundary definition to avoid disputes. Here are the key survey types you may need.

Protect Your Investment

A proper land survey confirms exact boundaries, size, and ensures no encroachment. In Karen C, where large plots and hilly terrain are common, a survey is essential to verify what you're buying matches the title deed.

📐 Types of Land Surveys

Perimeter Survey

Marks the exact boundaries of the plot, placing beacons at each corner. Confirms the land size matches the title deed.

Topographical Survey

Maps the contours, slopes, and natural features of the land. Useful for understanding drainage and building suitability.

Mutation Survey

Subdivides a larger parcel into smaller plots or consolidates multiple plots. Required for title changes after subdivision.

Places or replaces physical beacons (concrete pillars) at boundary corners as per the survey plan.

How to verify land ownership and avoid fraud when buying land in Kenya. Learn about freehold, leasehold, sectional, and mailo titles under the Land Registration Act 2012.

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

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

Leasehold

Ownership of land for a fixed term, 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 (apartment or townhouse) within a development, plus shared ownership of common areas like gardens, driveways, and amenities.

Mailo

A historical land tenure system from the Buganda region, where the registered owner holds 'mailo' rights (similar to freehold) but tenants (kibanja holders) may have occupancy rights.
