Kenya’s real estate market is experiencing tremendous growth, fueled by increasing urbanization, demand for residential and commercial properties, and government incentives for infrastructure development. As more investors, developers, and individual buyers enter the market, understanding the legal framework governing property and real estate in Kenya has never been more critical. Property transactions, whether involving land, buildings, or developments, require meticulous attention to legal requirements to avoid disputes, financial losses, and delays.
