Buying property in Zanzibar as a foreign investor is one of the most rewarding — and most carefully regulated — opportunities in East Africa. Our real estate practice gives you a single, accountable legal partner from first enquiry to registered title.
How we help
- Title verification & due diligence — we confirm ownership, encumbrances, and the legal status of any plot or development before you commit a single dollar.
- Sale & purchase agreements — drafted and negotiated to protect your interests, in clear language you can actually read.
- Regulatory compliance — we navigate the Zanzibar Investment Promotion Authority (ZIPA) framework and foreign-ownership rules so your purchase stands on solid ground.
- Closing & registration — we manage payment milestones, transfer, and registration through to your final documents.
Whether you are acquiring a single villa, a beachfront development, or a hospitality asset, we make the process transparent, compliant, and secure.
