Buying From Abroad

Buying from abroad should not mean buying blindly

Nairobi offers compelling property opportunities, but distance can make it difficult to confirm what is genuine, fairly priced and aligned with your objectives.

Elevate acts as your local property advisor. We help you compare opportunities, understand the developer's track record, coordinate independent legal due diligence, attend site visits, arrange live virtual tours and guide you through every stage of the transaction.

We do not begin with a property. We begin with your goals.

Verification

What property verification means at Elevate

Before recommending a development, our review may include several layers of property, developer and transaction research. The exact scope varies by property, and clients will always be informed of what has been confirmed, what remains outstanding and which matters require independent legal advice.

Legal services require a separate engagement with a qualified lawyer.

Clients are free to choose their own lawyer; we can coordinate introductions and documentation.

Verification does not replace independent legal due diligence, and Elevate does not provide legal advice.

Learn About Our Due-Diligence Process
  • Developer identity and company information
  • Developer project history
  • Property ownership and title documentation
  • Relevant planning and construction approvals
  • Current construction status
  • Current unit availability
  • Current pricing
  • Reservation and payment terms
  • Review of available sales documentation
  • Coordination with an independent property lawyer
  • Site inspection or virtual site verification where available
