Unfortunately, there's no real guarantees from the gouvernment. You buy (borrow) today, and they can take it away tomorrow.
On the other hand, if you have a very deep wallet, politicians and officials, will sell you their mothers too.
Am still hoping, one day (soon), to move in an african country. But am not paying bribes or brides 😅
Wow very informative video. My husband and i were planning to buy a house in uganda but after watching this,i geuss we'll have to rethink
It’s some complicated stuff all.

I wish you elaborated a bit more on the “automatic renewal clause” terms. What is allowed and not allowed within that clause? Can the price for renewal be determined at the time of initial purchase? Is the landlord allowed to change that renewal purchase after the 99 years despite the agreement. How long does the automatic renewal clause apply, for how many terms?
That was wonderful, Rae. We appreciate your hard work.
Well done. Wonderful interview and I am glad that you asked the question about starting a business in Uganda. I am currently in the process of registering one and the concept of buying land is intriguing to me.
My question is if I buy land or property in Uganda 🇺🇬 ,do I qualify for identity card of Uganda or citizenship
ur way of sharing information is appreciated
Thanks for the information ladies ❤❤❤
Listen from Kenya
Hi very informative video thank u very much i will need to watch several times to get a very good understanding. Is it possible you can do a video on renting furnished apartments for like up to 30days and the price and areas and phone numbers because im trying to rent a furnished apartment for 30days .
I've travelled to Uganda for over 10 years now and i learned that forged documents can be bought for almost anything. How can a foreigner be sure of their investment for purchasing/leasing land will not be taken from them by the landlord who can just draw up fake papers, take your money and the land back? What laws are put in place to protect the foreigner and their investments in Uganda?
if you become a Ugandan citizen can they convert their lease hold title to freehold?
This has been amazing, please do more interview with business owners and ect!
My question is as follows, I am a foreigner that lives in the UK and have a mother in-law that is an Ugandan citizen. My wife and I are currently looking into buying a property for her mum. We have currently looking into private companies that are selling some beautiful properties.
But based on this video, if I was to purchase a property in Uganda will that be placed under a lease aswell?
And to avoid this, should the property be purchased under the my in-law name?
Do you also have a few recommendation of well-known/reputational companies that are selling some great properties?
Thank you.
I appreciate the content!! "Keep going"
Great great video! I wish Rae didn't have to hum after every statement the woman made🤣 Very annoying.
So really if you can get 99yrs lease, one doesn't need to go begging locals to own shares or be forced to marry someone, surely if i live for the 99yrs i would have qualified to be a resident!!!!😜
Thanks Ms Rae and your well knowledge guest Ms Brillian .. i see the land system in Uganda it's similar to the majority countries across world.. Kenya is 99 years for citizens or foreigners. 99 years is alot. can serve 3 or 4 generations of the tenant's family. So no worries about stability
What if I get married to an Uganda woman will we own the land that our children may have it for ever…I am a American coming to live in Uganda soon ❤
This is very informative =:)
GOOD TOPIC, I'M INTERESTED, I WILL CONTACT YOU SOON
Very informative, but either way, a foreigner is on the loosing end. Even if married to a Ugandan and the land/investment on the land is held in trust, should the marriage goes south, the foreigner is toast. Except the foreigner gets lucky to have citizenship.
Can a foreigner buy outright an apartment in a block of flats?
Wait a minute, Attorney Atuhairwe! What exactly is "government land," in Uganda? I am assuming that this pertains to the central "government." Since when did the "Uganda Land Commission own land" anywhere in the country?
Great and informative video,webale Nyabo.
1.what happens as a south African(who doesn't have residence yet)married to Ugandan owing a house/cows in the village,Nd it
happens that my husband passes away and my in laws try to take the house/cows from me?
99 years, I don't see nothing wrong with that, because most folks aren't going to make it to 50. Just do it like in Thailand or Philippines, where foreigner can only partially own the land through the wife, she will own majority and all rights to the land. These Laws are there to protect locals birth rights to their land. Not like Hawaii, Caribbean and those islands off the coast of Africa where Western gentrification is taking place.
Hello Afrika!!
