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, lease, or sell the land without time limits.

Leasehold

Ownership of land for a fixed term, 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 building, plus shared ownership of common areas. Governed by the Sectional Properties Act.

Mailo Land

A historical land tenure system in Uganda, but also found in some parts of Kenya (e.g., Coast region). Combines freehold and leasehold elements.
