Obtaining a title deed is one of the most crucial steps in securing property ownership in Kenya. The process, while essential, can be intricate and time-consuming, involving various legal and bureaucratic procedures. At Nulands Limited, we recognize the importance of this step and are committed to guiding our clients through the title deed processing journey with ease and confidence. Here’s how we assist you in obtaining your title deed smoothly and efficiently.
1. Understanding the Title Deed Process in Kenya
The title deed is the ultimate proof of ownership for a piece of land or property in Kenya. The process of obtaining a title deed involves several key steps:
- Land Search: Before any transaction, a land search is conducted at the Ministry of Lands to verify the ownership and status of the property.
- Sale Agreement: Once the property details are confirmed, a sale agreement is drafted and signed by both parties. This document outlines the terms and conditions of the sale.
- Stamp Duty Payment: The buyer is required to pay stamp duty, which is calculated based on the value of the property. This payment is made to the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).
- Transfer of Ownership: After stamp duty is paid, the transfer of ownership documents are prepared and submitted to the Ministry of Lands for registration.
- Issuance of Title Deed: Once the transfer is successfully registered, the title deed is processed and issued to the new owner.
