There is some truth in what your lawyer is saying.
However in Ngong and Kajiado there is a shortage of blank titles so if yr lawyer thinks he can sit in nairobi and make phone calls he will take years to get the title.

He needs to do what the brokers there do. Go buy a blank title and walk with it to the office where titles are typed out.

@ the truth is that too many brokers are feeding on the inefficiencies at the lands ministry. the shortage of blanks is imagined to ensure the cheese keeps flowing... ask orengo. with a sharp lawyer, u walk in and walk out with the deed. aache pang'ang'a ya armchair

Where are these blank titles bought? From the government ama independent suppliers like river road?

hehehe re river road

Well,tuko wengi,this story about Ngong- Kajiado has been on for long. we need another demo at Orengo's office

@Kwanini

Dont talk too loudly on issues you really dont know about. It reflects badly on you.

At Kajiado, once u get the green card of the land, buy yr blank title right there. Armed with the green card and blank title your title is typed as you watch. The price of the blank depends on who you know.

This is one way to do it another is to sit and wait for yr title. The choice is yours.

thanks a lot Pablo, you are quite a resource

@lennz I am going to do just that, i hope it doesnt cost too much, the bugger charged an arm and a leg toconvey the property and now he s unreachable

That is one answer I would want to get. If you go to Kajiado for a title search, (to confirm the land is actually held by the ID owner you met), you pay 500 to a government office. When you take the yellow receipt to the registrar of lands, you are told to come back the next day for the results. Traveling to Kajiado costs you the whole day plus transport is like 1000 on fuel. So, you cant afford a second visit. On advise, I was told not to pay at the cash office but to pay direct to the guy doing the search. That way, I avoid paying the government. But I got the search deed results in ten minutes. Stupid government lost revenue, I became corrupt, but my business was fulfilled.

Question, who was the sick person who decided to make Kajiado to be the regional headquarters? The population there is minute to justify we in Kitengela, Rongai and Ngong going there. Its a sign that Africans are at times more closer to wildlife than humanity.

Asante @pablo...still waiting

Titles are still being issued at Kajiado as of last week. The Ngong office is operational on some services except issuance of titles. I bought a few acres in Ngong last week and my advocate took less than 2 weeks to get me the title. Email me for his contacts if you need his help.
