Gazette & public notices
Government decisions that change what a parcel is worth are published in the Kenya Gazette, not written on the title. A compulsory-acquisition order or a revoked allocation can cap a parcel's value while the deed still looks perfect.
What we check
- Compulsory-acquisition notices for roads, rail, and public works.
- Revocation and cancellation of title or allocation.
- Change-of-user and planning notices affecting the parcel.
- Riparian, road-reserve, and gazetted-forest overlays.
- Orders that affect how land is administered locally.
Why it matters
A gazetted acquisition order can hard-cap a parcel's usable value overnight, and it stays valid whether or not the buyer ever saw it. Reading the Gazette turns a hidden government action into a line item you can price before you commit.
Where this comes from
- The Kenya Gazette, decades of issues
- Government notices and legal supplements
