NEW LEGAL PROCESS INVOLVED IN REGISTRATION OF PROPERTY IN KENYA.


Initially, The Ministry of lands and physical planning had nine steps involved in registration of new property. It was then simplified into three legal processes in order to make registration of property easy which was formerly tiresome. The three new legal steps include:

Step 1: Procuring land rent clearance and consent transfer. 

This stage involves Procuring land rent clearance certificate and consent to transfer. Requirements needed in procuring and land rent clearance certificate are; Dully filled application forms, copy of titles and land lastly, land rent payment receipts for current year of payments made through RTGs and itax transfer.

Under consent to transfer, the following are required: a copy of title and duly filled application forms, application letter from registered owners/authorized agent or even advocate. Maximum of five days is taken to conclude this stage.

Step 2 : Valuation Requisition.

Site visitation and report writing falls here. The stage is expected to be completed within a period of three days. Application for valuation form duly filled, copy of title, original transfer instrument duly executed and survey plan or map of location are the requirements needed here.


Step 3 : Title registration.

It is here that we have registration of title to land and other instruments. A period of four days is given in order to complete title registration. Requirements are: Application form for registration and fee, original title document, original stamp duty payment receipt, Duly executed transfer/ lease/ charge instrument/ inhibition and any other instrument in triplicate, Certified copies of K.R.A pin certificate, Identification Card or CR 12 for companies.

 

In summary, the whole three new process is estimated to a total of twelve days (barely two weeks) cumulatively to finalize. On the contrary, the former former nine steps took approximately seventy three days which was tedious to the Real estate investors. The three new legal processes is a great initiative by the government and will soon be implemented.

How Women Can Protect Their Property Rights After Marriage

They say property has no gender, but history shows a different reality, where property ownership has favoured men. This inequality is still evident, especially when it comes to inheritance after the death of a spouse.  Even though Kenya’s 2010 Constitution guarantees equal rights for men and women, many women still struggle to secure their rights to property. So, how can women make sure their rights are respected after marriage? Baoriat Agencies explains six key ways to ensure fair property distribution in case of death or separation. 1. Registering Jointly Owned Property  When a couple buys property together, it’s important to register it under both names. This guarantees that the other automatically inherits the property if one partner dies. Make sure both names are clearly listed on the title deed as co-owners. 2.
