Malindi's property market is unusually international: Italian and European owners, Kenyan diaspora investors, and local families all hold coastal land, often on leasehold titles with layered histories. We structure lawful purchases for foreign buyers, complete due diligence on beach and town plots, and handle the cross-border succession issues that follow international ownership — including resealing foreign grants so overseas probate is recognised in Kenya.
Ombogo and Company Advocates is headquartered at Tyme Arcade, ABSA Bank Building, 3rd Floor, Suite 314, Magadi Road — serving clients across all 47 counties. Call +254 703 741 276 or WhatsApp for a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
I inherited property in Malindi from a relative who died abroad. How do I claim it?
If probate was granted abroad, we apply to reseal the foreign grant in the High Court of Kenya, which then lets the estate be administered here — including transferring the Malindi property. We handle resealing and the resulting transmission regularly for European and diaspora families.
