Can foreigners buy property in Kenya?
Yes, foreigners can buy property, but with certain restrictions. Non-citizens can only acquire leasehold land (maximum 99 years), not freehold. We conduct thorough due diligence, including title searches, encumbrance checks, and survey verification. Moreover, we handle the entire conveyancing process from offer to registration.
Why choose WKA Advocates?
Notably, 80% of our clients are international — demonstrating deep understanding of cross-border needs. The firm boasts 10+ years of excellence in Kenyan law.

How do you handle disputes and litigation?
Our approach is highly strategic: 1) first, assess merits and advise on options, 2) then, attempt negotiation/mediation where appropriate, 3) alternatively, pursue arbitration (ICC, LCIA, NCIA) for commercial disputes, or 4) finally, litigate in Kenyan courts. Representation spans from the Commercial Court to the Supreme Court.
