Land Ownership for Diaspora Kenyans: What You Need to Know Before Buying

Land Ownership for Diaspora Kenyans: What You Need to Know Before Buying

🌍 You are Abroad, But Your Heart Is Home

You have built a life abroad  but the dream of owning land in Kenya never really goes away, does it?

Whether it’s for future retirement, a family home, an investment, or simply having a piece of your roots back home, land remains one of the most meaningful and lasting purchases a Kenyan in the diaspora can make.

But buying land while living overseas can be risky and sadly, many have lost money due to fraud, poor planning, or lack of professional support.

Let’s change that.

At Great Fortunes Properties Ltd, we specialize in helping diaspora clients buy verified, titled land safely and remotely , while avoiding the most common pitfalls.

⚠️ Common Pitfalls for Diaspora Land Buyers

Here are the top issues diaspora Kenyans face when buying land:

1. Buying from Unverified Sellers

You see a “great deal” online or through a friend, only to discover later the land has:

• No title
• Multiple claimants
• Pending court cases 
  This is how many buyers lose millions of shillings.

2. Lack of Legal Follow-up

Some buyers trust family or friends to “handle everything.” But unless you have proper agreements, a lawyer, and access to documentation, things can go wrong fast.

3. Investing in the Wrong Location

Some areas may look attractive but have no future growth, infrastructure plans, or resale value. Without proper research, you could be stuck with a dead asset.

👥 Real Story: Kevin, UK-Based Kenyan

“I had saved for years, but was scared of buying land after hearing horror stories. Great Fortunes showed me options on video, sent documents step-by-step, and I had my title deed in 8 weeks. Now, I own a plot in Joska and I’m planning to build soon.”
