Before you buy that small plot in Nakuru Town East, verify the boundaries with a professional survey. The Survey Act (Cap. 299) requires licensed surveyors to fix and mark boundaries. Here's what you need to know.

Know Your Boundaries

A land survey confirms the exact size and shape of your plot, prevents boundary disputes with neighbours, and ensures the land matches the title deed. In Nakuru Town East, where land use is mixed and the terrain varies, a survey is your first line of protection.

📐 Types of Land Surveys

Marks the outer boundaries of your plot with beacons or pegs. The surveyor produces a deed plan that is used for registration.

Topographical survey

Maps the contours, slopes, drainage, and existing features (trees, buildings, roads) on the land.

Mutation survey

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

Beacon survey

Places or replaces permanent boundary markers (beacons) at the corners of your plot. Often part of a perimeter survey.

Freehold vs Leasehold vs Sectional Title: Kenyan Land Tenure Explained

Understanding land tenure is crucial when buying property in Kenya. The Land Act 2012 governs three main types of land ownership: freehold, leasehold, and sectional title. Each has distinct implications for ownership duration, transferability, and use. This guide explains the differences to help you make an informed decision.

Freehold

Freehold grants the owner absolute ownership of the land for an indefinite period. The owner has full rights to use, transfer, and bequeath the land, subject to planning and environmental laws. Freehold titles are the most sought-after in Kenya.

Pros
  • Permanent ownership with no expiry date
  • No ground rent payable to the government
  • Full rights to develop, lease, or sell without consent
  • Easier to finance with banks due to higher collateral value
Watch out for
  • Higher purchase price compared to leasehold
  • Owner bears all maintenance and land rates
  • May be subject to compulsory acquisition by the state
  • Requires thorough due diligence to avoid fraudulent titles
Best for

Buyers seeking long-term investment, family homes, or agricultural land in rural and peri-urban areas.

Leasehold

Leasehold grants the holder rights to use and occupy land for a specified period, typically 99 or 999 years, after which ownership reverts to the lessor (usually the government or a private entity). Leasehold is common in urban areas and for government-owned land.

Pros
  • Lower upfront cost compared to freehold
  • Often located in prime urban areas with infrastructure
  • Lease terms can be extended upon expiry (subject to fees)
  • Less responsibility for external maintenance (if lease stipulates)
Watch out for
  • Ownership is temporary; land reverts after lease expiry
  • Annual ground rent payable to the lessor
  • Requires lessor's consent for major developments or transfers
  • Lease extension can be costly and uncertain
Best for

Urban homebuyers, investors in apartments, and those seeking affordable entry into high-value areas.

Sectional Title

Sectional title applies to multi-unit developments (apartments, townhouses) where an individual owns a unit (section) and shares ownership of common areas (e.g., corridors, gardens) with other unit owners. Governed by the Sectional Properties Act 2020.

Pros
  • Individual ownership of a specific unit with a title deed
  • Shared responsibility for common areas reduces individual burden
  • Access to amenities like parking, gardens, and security
  • Easier to sell or rent individual units
Watch out for
  • Monthly service charges for maintenance of common areas
  • Decisions on common property require consensus among owners
  • Potential for disputes with neighbours or management
  • Limited control over external modifications to the unit
Best for

Buyers seeking low-maintenance living in gated communities or urban apartments.
