Land fraud remains one of the most common legal risks in Uganda. Conducting proper land due diligence before purchase is essential to confirm ownership, boundaries, tenure, and any existing encumbrances.
Due diligence includes conducting official searches at the Ministry of Lands, verifying the seller’s identity, physically inspecting the land, and reviewing the land title. Buyers should also confirm zoning restrictions, spousal consent, and whether the land is subject to disputes.
Failure to conduct due diligence may result in financial loss or prolonged litigation. Involving a lawyer ensures that the transaction is lawful and that the buyer’s interests are protected throughout the process.
