Understanding Land Deed Types in Kenya

When buying land in Kenya, the type of deed determines your ownership rights and obligations. The Land Act 2012 and the Land Registration Act 2012 govern these tenure systems. Here's a breakdown of the main deed types you'll encounter.

Watch out for
  • Typically higher purchase price than leasehold
  • Owner bears all maintenance and development costs
  • Subject to compulsory acquisition by the state
  • May require more due diligence to verify title
Best for

Leasehold

Leasehold grants the holder rights to use and occupy land for a specified period, typically 99 years for residential and 45–99 years for commercial, after which ownership reverts to the lessor (often the government). Governed by the Land Act 2012.
