Why You Need To Do a Land Search in Kenya – Before Buying It

 

Land search is one of the main steps which a potential buyer cannot afford to skip.

The good thing about this step is that, you can do a search on the land you have found suitable for your needs, while at the comfort of your home, that is, online.

All you need to have is a strong internet connection, a computer/laptop and title deed number for the land you are searching.

So why should you do a land search before finalizing the deal to purchase that piece of land that has satisfied you? 

1.      You will be able to know the real owner(s) of the land you are about to buy

2.      If the seller is a company, you will be able to know the real directors in charge.

3.      You will be able to know if the land in question has a caveat, any restrictions or bank charge.

4.      You will be able to know the exact size of the land – as per the Land Registry records

5.      You will find out the land’s history – if it belongs to the government (public land) or is owned under leasehold and how many years are remaining before the lease expires.

6.      You will be able to know how much rent from the land is payable to the government.

All the above listed things will be key in helping you make a right decision – from an informed decision on whether you will proceed and purchase the land or not.
