If he's the same Thuo who was selling plots in Kitengela near Yukos then I've dealt with them and they are genuine. That said you need to take every precaution when buying land.

Please list some of them for our information

Thanks 2012
(BTW why did you choose this name?)...great infor...

Look at this scenario...
A land company bought land in 1992.Sub-divide it into small plots ... sold it to members and issued share certificate..members can transfer the land to a third party... the company has a musteroll where any member who transfers his share is struct off and the new owner is listed ...The original owner has to do a sale agreement in own hand writing and sign that he /she does not have any further claim to the company or new owner and give the original certificate to the new owner with his name struck off and the new owner included...transfers and sale agreements are done at the land buying company s office and signed by the directors...The land buying company is owned by old wazees and has been in existence since early 70s..and no complaints so far..
No lawyers are involved and it looks like a clean deal ...Do you think this is a clean deal or their is a room for conmanship?

2012 , the only problem is that most plots in Embakasi... Utawala.... Ruai... Syokimau are on share cerificates...Titles processing is on progress...If one has to wait until the titles are out ,given the ever appreciating land prices....plots will be out of reach...what is the worst that can happen on plots on share cerificates under a Limited liability land buying company?
When will title deeds ever been issued efficiently like birth certs and passports ?

On the certificate...they indicate the LR no.of that land ..I believe you can do a search using the LR number...is it? How about also having a map of the plot including the LR no. is it of any help...also someone answer me...what is the worst that can happen when you are holding a plot against share certificate of a limited liability land buying company established in 1970s?
As indicated earlier seriously I am out of the stock market till 2013... God willing ..purely for the sake of my heart ... the small harvested shares investment has to land somewhere...

Thanks people for your good advice. Will do my research and exercise all necessary caution.

Fundaah-imho, any piece of land has to have a title deed. If you use that as a starting pt, I think you go further. I've heard people say that if you buy land on certificates, the potential upside is higher once you get the title deed, but I'm don't think (and I stand to be corrected), any bank would lend to you using the certificate as security alone.
In conclusion, unless, you are buying for a short speculative period, go the whole hog and get the deed.
Btw, there are ways of avoiding the bribery cost at Ardhi House.

There will be new demolitions to allow by-pass:

Just wondering , how comes people constructed permanent houses on the by-passes...does it mean there are areas on the by-pass that were allocated title deeds ? who is to blame...the owners or the Government for giving title deeds on a by-pass?

And does anyone have a map of the bypass especially at Utawala area?

some one please holler to me the contacts of this THUO mzee

Want to know the same. Has anybody visited the location of the plots?
