What to Look for When Buying Plots Near Konza
Not all plots near Konza are equal. Here are the key factors to verify before purchasing:
- 1.Clean Title — No Caveats or Disputes
Always conduct a title search at the Ministry of Lands before purchasing. Legitimate companies like MkonoPoa conduct this on your behalf, overseen by our MD who is an Advocate of the High Court.
- 2.Proper Beacons and Survey Maps
Your plot should have physical beacons on the ground and a registered survey map (RIM) that confirms your exact boundaries. Never buy an unbounded plot.
- 3.Access Road
A plot without road access is very difficult to develop. Confirm the plot has either tarmac or an all-weather road — and check whether road maintenance is the developer's or county's responsibility.
- 4.Utility Connections
Confirm whether KPLC electricity and water (borehole or county mains) are available on or near the plot. These significantly affect both liveability and resale value.
- 5.Reputable Developer with Legal Backing
Work only with registered developers whose management includes legal professionals. MkonoPoa is led by an Advocate of the High Court as MD — giving every client legal protection throughout the transaction.
