Land search is one of the most integral parts in the whole process of acquiring a piece of land or plot that you are looking for.

It is through this process that you will be able to know among others; the genuine owner of the land, location and history of ownership, among others.

So what do you need to do a successful land search? 

With the modern era of the internet, you can do a land search at the comfort of your home or workplace, provided you have access to a laptop/computer and the internet. 

You will also need to have a land registry title number of the parcel you have identified as the one you want to purchase. 

We at Baoriat Agencies, also help our clients do land searches and walk with them through to the end of land purchasing process.
