Rigorous Due Diligence on Every Transaction

End-to-End Support from Negotiation to Registration

Our involvement does not stop at drafting an agreement. We represent our clients through negotiation, conveyancing, stamp duty assessment, and final title registration, ensuring a seamless experience from the first handshake to the moment ownership is formally secured.

Our Process

We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your property goals, the nature of the transaction, and any existing documentation you hold. This allows us to define the full scope of work and identify potential risk areas early.
Our team conducts a comprehensive due diligence review, including official title searches at the Lands Registry, verification of land rates and rent clearance, confirmation of survey plans, and checks for any encumbrances, caveats, or court orders affecting the property.
We prepare or review all necessary documents — including sale agreements, transfer instruments, lease agreements, charges, and easements — ensuring every clause is precise, enforceable, and aligned with your interests and applicable Kenyan property statutes.
We oversee the full completion process, coordinating payment of stamp duty, lodging transfer documents at the relevant Lands Registry, and ensuring the new title is issued correctly. You receive a clear summary of all registered rights and obligations upon handover.

Frequently Asked Questions

A title search is an official inquiry conducted at the Lands Registry to confirm the legal ownership of a property, its registered size, and whether any charges, cautions, or court orders are registered against it. It is essential because it reveals whether the seller has the legal right to transfer the property and whether the title is free from encumbrances that could affect your ownership rights after purchase.
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the transaction and the efficiency of the relevant registries. A straightforward residential property transfer can take between four to eight weeks from the date both parties execute the sale agreement. Delays may arise from outstanding land rate clearances, registry backlogs, or the need for subdivision approvals. Derick & Partners actively monitors every stage to keep your transaction on track.
Yes. In addition to facilitating property transactions, our Real Estate Law Services include representation in property disputes, including boundary conflicts, adverse possession claims, landlord-tenant disagreements, and title rectification matters. We pursue resolution through negotiation, alternative dispute resolution, or formal proceedings as appropriate to your situation and objectives.
