Selling land in Kenya can be a stressful process, especially when dealing with unserious buyers or facing property disputes. A recent TikTok story highlighted the challenges of selling land in Kenya, where a seller had to navigate a complex and time-consuming process to resolve a dispute with a buyer. Under Kenyan law, the process of selling land involves several steps, including obtaining a title deed, conducting a search, and registering the transfer of ownership. However, disputes can arise when buyers fail to pay the agreed-upon amount or when there are issues with the title deed.
