Kenya opened new doors for foreign land ownership that hadn’t traditionally been available since the 2010 constitution was passed. Previously, restrictions made it challenging for non-citizens to own land.
This shift has attracted people worldwide, including Kenyans living abroad who viewed the land market as a valuable investment opportunity.
Land in Kenya is a popular investment because its value often appreciates over time, creating potential for profit and financial security. However, foreigners and Kenyans in the diaspora often face challenges in finding a reliable sales company or trustworthy representative to help them secure land at a fair price.
This concern is especially valid given the stories of people who have, unfortunately, lost hard-earned money to untrustworthy land-selling companies, as well as to family or friends who have misused funds meant for property purchases.
For those living abroad who want to buy land in Kenya, setting clear goals and carefully choosing a reputable real estate company is the best place to start. This step is important for making the dream of land ownership a reality without falling into common pitfalls.
A legitimate real estate company can guide buyers through the purchasing process, handle any complexities, and ensure that all transactions are transparent and legally binding.
AMCCO Real Estate has proven itself to be a reputable and distinguished company of choice for foreigners seeking to buy land in Kenya.
They have a strong track record of delivering on their promises and ensuring that clients receive exactly what is outlined in their documentation. They have been honoured with several awards and endorsements, including Best Land Selling Company in Kenya.
One such example is a foreigner from the U.S. who decided to purchase land in Kenya in 2022. Like many others, he saw Kenya as a place of opportunity, whether for investment or a personal connection to his heritage.
While searching online, he found several options but was drawn to AMCCO’s website due to its neatness and professionalism.
After reaching out, he quickly received a response and was assigned Mary Wambui as his sales executive. He appreciated the promptness and professionalism of the team, which made him feel confident in his decision to move forward.

“We arranged a visit. I came to their office and from there I discovered the land that I now own. Now I’m a Kenyan property owner even though I’m American,” he said.
The client expressed his satisfaction over how smooth the process was, from first contact to eventually receiving the ready title deed, which was all conducted in a matter of months.
He decided to buy one plot outright and planned to take a few months to purchase a second one. AMCCO helped him set up a payment plan, and within two months, he received his title deed as agreed upon without any issues.
“I recommend AMCCO and will do it with them again in the future. I plan to purchase more land in the future with AMCCO,” he concluded.
