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

Absolute ownership of land for an indefinite period. The owner has full rights to use, transfer, and lease the land.

Leasehold

Ownership of land for a specified period, typically 99 or 999 years, after which ownership reverts to the lessor (usually the government).

Sectional Title

Ownership of a unit (e.g., apartment) within a multi-unit development, with shared ownership of common areas.

Mailo Land

A historical land tenure system in Uganda, but also found in parts of Kenya (e.g., coastal region) where land is held under customary or freehold arrangements.

Need Help Verifying a Title?

Residential Land for Sale in Nyari, Westlands, Nairobi

Before you buy land in Nyari, verify boundaries with a licensed surveyor. The Survey Act (Cap 299) requires all land transactions to be based on an accurate survey to avoid disputes and encroachments.

Protect Your Investment

A proper land survey confirms exact boundaries, size, and ensures no encroachment. In Nyari, where plots border Karura Forest and other prime areas, a survey safeguards your title deed and future development plans.

📐 Types of Land Surveys

Perimeter Survey

Establishes the exact boundaries of a plot, marking beacons at each corner. Essential for confirming the land size matches the title deed.

Topographical Survey

Maps the natural and man-made features of the land, including contours, slopes, drainage, and existing structures.

Mutation Survey

Subdivides a larger parcel into smaller plots or consolidates multiple plots into one. Produces a new deed plan for each resultant parcel.

Beacon Survey

Places or replaces physical markers (beacons) at boundary corners as per the registered deed plan. Often done after a perimeter survey.
