Buying from abroad
shouldn't feel like a gamble.
We've all heard the stories: a plot sold twice, a house that never got built, a relative who "handled it". We built our process around those fears.
Every title checked first
Before you commit a shilling, we run an official search at the Lands Registry, check survey maps and confirm the seller's identity. You get the results in writing.
Money handled by an advocate
Deposits and balances go through a licensed advocate's client account, released only when agreed milestones are met. Never to an agent's personal account.
We're your eyes on the ground
Live video walk-throughs, drone footage of land, and regular photo and video updates during construction. You see what we see.

What will it really cost?
The purchase price isn't the whole story. Use this to get a rough picture of the main costs of buying in Kenya, converted into your currency.
Estimates only. Stamp duty is typically 4% in urban areas and 2% in rural areas; legal and other fees vary by property and advocate. Your advocate will confirm the exact figures.
Questions buyers abroad ask us most.
Can't find your answer? Send us a WhatsApp message and a real person will reply, usually within a few hours.
Can foreigners buy property in Kenya?
Yes. Non-citizens can buy homes, apartments and commercial property in Kenya. Under Kenya's Constitution, non-citizens hold land on leasehold of up to 99 years rather than freehold, and most apartments and gated developments are leasehold anyway. Agricultural land has extra restrictions for non-citizens. Listings marked "Open to non-citizens" are suitable for foreign buyers.
I'm a Kenyan living abroad. Is the process different?
Kenyan citizens abroad can buy any type of property, including freehold land, exactly as they would at home. Most of the process, from viewings to signing, can be done remotely, and we coordinate everything on the ground for you.
Can I buy through a company?
Yes. Many investors buy through a Kenyan-registered company, which can suit portfolios and joint ventures. Ownership rules depend on the company's shareholding, so your advocate will advise on the best structure for you.
How do I sign documents if I'm not in Kenya?
Documents can be signed before a notary public or at a Kenyan embassy or high commission abroad, then couriered. Many buyers also appoint a trusted person through a registered Power of Attorney. Your advocate will guide you on the right option.
How do I send money safely?
All payments go by bank transfer to the advocate's client account, never to an agent or seller personally, and are released only at agreed stages. Always confirm account details by phone before transferring.
Can I get a mortgage?
Several Kenyan banks offer diaspora mortgages to Kenyans working abroad, and some lenders consider foreign nationals with residency or local income. Many international investors buy in cash. We can introduce you to lenders and help prepare the documents they usually ask for.
Can I take rental income and sale proceeds out of Kenya?
Kenya does not currently have exchange controls, so income and proceeds can generally be moved abroad through the banking system, subject to tax obligations such as rental income tax and capital gains tax. Your advocate or tax adviser will confirm what applies to you.
Who looks after the property once I own it?
We can. Our management service covers finding tenants, collecting rent, handling repairs and sending you a monthly statement, so your property earns while you're away.
