Step-by-step
Buying land in Kenya involves several legal and procedural steps. This guide walks you through the process from search to registration, referencing key institutions like the Ministry of Lands and the Land Control Board.
Visit the Ministry of Lands or use the e-Citizen portal to conduct a search on the title deed. This confirms the registered owner, size, and any encumbrances. Cost: KES 500–1,000.
Hire a surveyor to verify the physical boundaries and confirm the plot matches the title deed. The surveyor will also check for any encroachments or disputes.
Engage a lawyer to draft a sale agreement. Both parties sign the agreement, and the buyer pays a deposit (usually 10% of the purchase price). The advocate conducts a due diligence search.
For agricultural land, you must apply for consent from the Land Control Board in the county where the land is located. This step is mandatory and ensures the transfer is approved.
Pay stamp duty (2% for rural land, 4% for urban land) to the Kenya Revenue Authority. Also pay registration fees at the Ministry of Lands. Obtain a stamp duty valuation from the government valuer.
Submit the transfer documents to the Ministry of Lands for registration. Once registered, you receive a new title deed in your name. This is the final step to legal ownership.

Know before you buy Compare 3
Understanding land tenure is crucial when buying property in Kenya. The Land Act 2012 and the Land Registration Act 2012 govern the main tenure types: freehold, leasehold, and sectional title. Each has distinct implications for ownership duration, transferability, and land use. This guide explains the differences to help you make an informed decision.
Freehold is the most absolute form of land ownership in Kenya, granting the holder indefinite rights to the land. The owner has full control over the property, subject to planning and environmental laws, and can use, lease, or sell it without time limitations.
Buyers seeking long-term investment, family homes, or agricultural land
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 lessor (often the government). The lease can be renewed subject to terms.
Urban property investors, first-time buyers, or those seeking affordable options in city centers
Sectional title is a form of ownership for units within a multi-unit development (e.g., apartments, townhouses). The owner holds a freehold or leasehold interest in their specific unit and shares ownership of common areas (e.g., gardens, corridors) with other unit owners.
Buyers of apartments, townhouses, or gated community units
