A person might want to subdivide land because he\u2019d like to leave different portions to each of his\/her beneficiaries as inheritance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Financial hardships brought about by factors such as sickness in the family or raising funds for education abroad. It is a common reason for people to subdivide and sell off a portion of their land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s advisable to get higher returns on your land. It is better to subdivide it and sell in smaller portions rather than as a block.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to go about subdividing<\/strong><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step taken by the landowner will be to conduct an official title deed search at the local land registry. To conduct the search, which normally takes three days. You must produce a copy of your national identity card, a copy of your KRA PIN and the title deed number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The search\u00a0is important because it enables you to ascertain ownership of the land. And whether there are any encumbrances on the land, for instance, it might have been used to secure a loan.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the official search, the landowner, with the help of the surveyor, is required to get a registry index map (RIM) from the Survey of Kenya. The RIM is a map that covers a large geographic area in which the land to be subdivided lies.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Land subdividing is a process that many who have done describe as arduous and exhausting.
