The Problem

Land fraud in Uganda is rising fast.

Fake titles, double sales, disputed ownership and fraudulent registrations put hard-earned savings at risk, and buyers abroad, who can’t check in person, are especially exposed. Without independent verification, you could lose the land and the money.

Our Approach

A structured process
for a confident decision.

We combine official records, on-the-ground verification and local intelligence to give you an independent and unbiased assessment of any property in Uganda.

STAGE 01

Title & Registry Search

We verify ownership, land tenure, title authenticity and relevant registry records with official sources.

STAGE 02

Encumbrances & Claims

We check for registered mortgages, charges, caveats, litigation and competing or customary claims.

STAGE 03

Physical Site Inspection

Our team visits the property, verifies boundaries, documents site conditions, and speaks with local authorities and neighbours.

STAGE 04

Report & Verdict

You receive a comprehensive report with documented findings, photos and a clear verdict: VERIFIED or FLAGGED.

If we cannot verify something, we say so.

Records in Uganda are not always complete, and some checks cannot be closed out with certainty. Where that happens we state plainly what could not be confirmed and why, rather than presenting a gap as a clean result.

Packages

Three levels of verification.

Start with a records check, add a site visit, or get complete due diligence. Each package builds on the one before it.

Why PlotVerify

We have no stake in the sale.

We don’t sell land or earn commissions from sellers. Our responsibility is to provide independent findings so you can make informed decisions.

Who’s checking your land?

Most buyers abroad rely on the seller’s agent or a relative. Here’s how that compares.
