Legal Entities for Real Estate Development in Kenya

The choice of legal structure is paramount for any real estate project in Kenya. Commonly, developers opt for private limited companies, which offer limited liability protection and a clear framework for ownership and management, as stipulated by the Companies Act, 2015. Alternatively, special purpose vehicles (SPVs) might be established for specific projects. The Business Registration Service (BRS) oversees the incorporation of these entities. Our expertise ensures that the chosen structure aligns with your project's objectives, funding model, and risk profile. We advise on navigating potential land ownership regulations, including requirements from the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning, and ensuring compliance with county-level planning permits from entities like the Nairobi City County.
