What to check before you buy in Muthaiga

Run an official search at the Ministry of Lands and confirm the seller is the registered owner before paying anything.
Older titles deserve extra care: have a lawyer trace the history and check lease terms.
Commission a structural survey, since many homes are decades old.
Ask the residents' association about local rules and security arrangements.
