Most landowners buy land only for the land to appreciate in value for them to sell later. Some will sell the land at double the price while others can sell it triple the price. But the landowners can cash in on the land even as they wait for it to appreciate. Others just have plenty of land and they don’t know what to do with it.

Unutilized land can be used for income-generating activities. Whether on a high scale or on a small scale.There are many ways to make money with a farm without farming. Here are a few ideas:

1. Rent out your land or farm buildings: If you own land or have farm buildings that you are not using, you can rent them out to farmers or other businesses. This can be a great way to generate passive income from your farm.

2. Offer farm-related services: If you have skills or experience in farming, you can offer your services to farmers, such as custom harvesting, equipment rental or agricultural consulting.

3. Host events or activities: You can host events or activities on your farm, such as weddings, parties, or educational workshops. This can be a great way to generate income and bring people to your farm.

4. Offer lodging or camping: You can offer lodging or camping on your farm. This can be a great way to generate income from tourists or other visitors.

5. Lease your land for renewable energy production: You can lease your land for renewable energy production, such as wind or solar energy. This can be a great way to generate a steady income from your farm without having to do any farming yourself.

6. Invest in agricultural technology: You can invest in agricultural technology companies that are developing new ways to improve the efficiency and profitability of farming.

7.Tree Planting/Timber Harvesting:
Trees have many uses, the common ones being building and firewood. Planting trees promises greater returns with little effort, but patience is key here. Trees take time to grow. So, if you know you won’t be attending to your land for a long time, planting trees can be a better option for investment.

8. Mobile homes:
With the advent of containers, you can easily come up with homes or even businesses that you can sell once you want to use your land for another purpose.

9. Bee Keeping activities:
With the high increase of honey demand ,you can set up several bee hives on your idle piece of land which requires relatively low capital.

These are just a few ideas for how to make money with a farm without farming. There are many other possibilities, depending on your interests, skills, and resources.

PROCEDURE OF PURCHASING LAND IN KENYA

If you are buying land from an individual or group please follow the following STEPS to avoid being CONNED:

1 . Ask to see the TITLE DEED or Copy of the title deed. Then do a search at the ministry of lands to confirm who the real owners are or if the title has any CAVEAT on it, The search will cost you Sh 520.

2.Do a search with LOCAL AUTHORITIES to check of any unpaid land rates. If any, agree with the seller who will settle the land rates. NB :LAND can't be transferred if they are unpaid land rates.

3.Go to the ministry of lands and buy 2 Maps, one showing the exact measurements of the piece you are buying called (mutation) and the other showing the neighbouring lands, Each costs Sh 350.

4.With your 2 maps and a surveyor (you can do it yourself) visit the land you are buying and verify the details on the MAP. Check out all the beacons.

5.Sit down with your seller and bargain the price. Write down an agreement. The agreement can be done in the presence of a lawyer. According to LSK if the value of the land is below 1 million you pay the lawyer 3K, if it's above 1 million you pay the lawyer 8K for the agreement.

6.Pay some amount as per your agreement, Don't pay everything Hata k**a pesa uko nayo.

7.Book a meeting with lands control board (LCB) They meet once every month. It will cost you Sh 1000.
LCB will issue consent for the land to be sold.

8.pay the remaining balance after getting consent from LCB.

9.Go to ministry of lands offices with your KRA PIN, 2 passport photos and a copy of the TITLE DEED to change ownership.
It will cost you Sh 5000.

10.At this stage you don't need the seller. Now go pay stamp duty, ie according to the VALUE of the land.
4% of sales value in municipalities &
2%of sales value in reserves.

11.Now the land belongs to you, but before celebrating go to the ministry of lands &do a search to confirm if they have updated their RECORDS and it reads you.

12.Buy a copy of the green card and also engage the neighbours. The village drunkard is resourceful too k**a uko na ka 50 πŸ˜†.
