Good news..

Quote:
The Cabinet on Thursday waived all payments for title deeds, in what could come as a huge relief for millions of Kenyans who cannot afford to pay for the vital document.

To get a title deed, one had to pay a fee calculated based on the value of the land, the surveying fee, planning fee, and adjudication fee.

These fees vary with the size and value of land. Experts have blamed the fees for the situation where many Kenyans with huge tracts of lands have no title deeds to back their ownership claim.

“The Cabinet approved waiver of payments for title deeds for the majority of Kenyans who have not been able to obtain titles for their properties due to prohibitive cost of land registration,” a statement from State House sent to newsrooms said on Thursday.
