@lawyerprudence: Most apartment buyers in Kenya do not fully understand what they actually own. A sectional title is what legally converts a unit into independent property ownership. If you are buying, investing, or already own an apartment, due diligence on title structure is essential. This series will break down the law governing sectional properties in Kenya. #PropertyLawKE #SectionalTitle #RealEstateKenya #Conveyancing #DiasporaInvest Disclaimer: This information is for general guidance and does not constitute legal advice.

You get that after paying for the unit fully and stamp duty, it's the last legal step

But Counsel, how would a sectional title be issued before the sectional plan is registered? The survey and registration of the sectional plan come first.
And if you’re referring to long-term sub-leases pending conversion and geo-referencing (which is the developer/management company’s responsibility), pending conversion doesn’t invalidate ownership, transactions can still proceed under the existing sub-leases pursuant to the MoU between the Ministry of Lands and the LSK. As long as the sub-lease is registered in their name (notwithstanding the mother lease pending conversion under SPA), they are deemed the registered owners of the unit.
