1. Adding value to the land for sale

Now this should be a no-brainer right! Basically, when you want to sell your land, you will be seeking to fetch as much returns as possible. This is so that you can realize capital appreciation from the initial purchase price you acquired the asset. And what better way than to actively do that.

For instance, you can make your property stand out by fencing it -this could even be just a normal barbed wire, chain link or even perimeter wall if it’s more of a residential one. Another thing would be clearly demarcating the boundaries and the access road to the property.

Interestingly, what you will realize is that a buyer would be more confident dealing with you knowing you actually took initiative to take care of the property. Value addition will also contribute immensely to the overall price of the property.

2. Getting documentations in place

Secondly, you need documents to prove you not only own the piece of land you intend to sell, but have paper evidence as well. You see, if there’s one thing that really determines how fast you can sell your land in Kenya, documentation is! Here’s why.

You might have heard of fake title deeds scandals pitting potential buyers and sellers, one piece of land being sold to different people, conmen posing as land sellers and all that. Maybe then you didn’t care because it didn’t have anything to do with you. However it does now!

Prospective buyers have grown cautious of these issues and are inclined to avoid properties that could cause problems in future. A case in point is a land on succession where a buyer can find themselves thrust into family wrangles concerning the land. So it will be in your interest to prepare the documents in place.

When you choose to put your piece of land and it’s on succession, try as much as possible to have the case resolved and the plot number assigned. This way, a buyer can always register it in their name easily.

Another way is doing a recent landsearch so that on enquiry, a client can be served with those documents. Credibility is key And why not lead the way.

3. Decide on land sell price

Thirdly, lets talk pricing. How do you intend to set your price? Will you use a land valuer or surveyor? How about shopping around in the area to know how much similar pieces sell for?

Whichever way you opt for, just make sure you have 3 prices. The floor price that will be lowest you can take for the land to make any economic sense. The fair price that would be a reasonable figure with a decent return for your property and your market price. This would definitely be the price that would fetch you the highest return on investment (ROI).

So are somewhere now on how you’ll sell your land fast in Kenya? Great!
