Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Real estate dealers have welcomed a recent move by the government to allocate Sh755 million for the digitisation of land registries, saying this will end endemic corruption which has rocked the Lands Ministry for many years.<\/p>\n

The developers also said the move will also help them to issue titles on a timely basis.<\/p>\n

The real estate sector players pointed out that most people buy land but they don\u2019t get their titles as quickly as possible<\/p>\n

“The move by the government to allocate more to help in digitising is so timely and will help sort a lot of problems that we have always been accused of,\u201d said the chief executive of Comfort Homes Hezekiah Kariuki.<\/p>\n

Kariuki said the process will also assist in solving succession cases which have denied many families opportunities to develop their ancestral land.<\/p>\n

\u201c Almost every family in Kenya, they have a succession problem. Land cases are the most difficult. With digitisation, somebody can now be able to track and know who the real owner is, \u201che said.<\/p>\n

CEO Casuarina realtors Patrick Kabui also said the move has come at a time when many people have lost their hard-earned money after they were defrauded by brokers, who have dominated land registries over the years.<\/p>\n

Speaking while presenting the 2023\/24 budget at the National Assembly, National Treasury Cabinet Secretary Prof. Njuguna Ndung\u2019u proposed an allocation of Sh1.2 billion for the processing and registration of title deeds.<\/p>\n

Another Sh2.6 billion for the settlement of the landless as well as Sh755 million for the digitisation of land Registries and Sh138.3 million for the construction of land registries.<\/p>\n
