Property Law FAQs

Common Questions About Property Law

Land ownership verification involves conducting a search at the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning, reviewing title deeds, and inspecting physical boundaries. We handle this due diligence process for our clients to ensure secure transactions.

Property registration involves several steps: due diligence, preparation of transfer documents, stamp duty assessment and payment, and registration at the Ministry of Lands. The process typically takes 30-60 days with proper documentation.

Conveyancing typically takes 30-90 days depending on the complexity of the transaction, the efficiency of the relevant government offices, and whether there are any complications with the title or property.

Tenant rights in Kenya are protected under various laws including the Landlord and Tenant (Shops, Hotels and Catering Establishments) Act. Rights include protection from arbitrary eviction, fair rent assessments, and habitable living conditions.
