LANDDOC SERVICES
Due Diligence & Title Search Audits
Before you commit funds to a purchase, we trace the property's chain of ownership back through prior Alkalo records, past sale agreements, and any competing claims on file. The result is a plain-language findings report that tells you, and your bank, whether the title is clean enough to lend or build on.

Plain-language findings report
Property Valuation & Appraisal
A certified appraiser inspects the property and produces a bank-recognized valuation report, weighing location, size, improvements, and comparable local sales. Lenders use this figure to set mortgage terms, so we build the report to the standard your specific bank requires, not a generic template.

Comparable sales analysis
Bank-format valuation report
Alkalo & Elders Verification
We arrange and attend an on-site sitting with the Alkalo and neighboring elders, walking the boundaries together and hearing the land's history directly from the people who hold it. Every statement of consent, recognition, and neighbor agreement is written down and signed on the spot, creating a record that traditional authorities and government offices both recognize.

Signed neighbor consent statements
Written boundary and history record
Client Intake & Document Audit
We begin every engagement by collecting your customary receipts, site plans, prior sale agreements, and identification, then run a structured audit against what a formal application actually requires. This surfaces missing signatures, expired documents, or unclear boundaries early — while they're still cheap and fast to fix, rather than after a submission is rejected.

GPS Cadastral Survey & Beaconing
Our surveyors measure every corner of the parcel with professional-grade GPS equipment, producing coordinates accurate enough to withstand a future legal challenge. Once boundaries are confirmed, we install permanent concrete beacons at each corner, so the property line is visible on the ground, not just on paper.

Dispute Resolution Documentation
When a boundary or ownership disagreement arises, we help you build the paper trail that actually holds up: sworn affidavits, witness statements, and signed minutes from any mediation sittings. Well-documented disputes resolve faster and more fairly, whether they're settled by elders, a local tribunal, or the courts.
Affidavit and statement drafting
Mediation sitting minutes
Organized dispute case file
Site & Parcel Plan Preparation
Using the survey data, we draft or update a formal site plan and parcel map to the scale and format your Lands Department or bank expects. This is the document that anchors every later filing, so we check it against neighboring plans to catch overlaps before it reaches a government desk.

Compliance & Renewal Filing
Land titles lapse quietly when a renewal deadline or ground rent payment is missed, so we track these dates for you and file renewals before they become a problem. It's an ongoing service, not a one-time fix, built to keep your title in good standing for as long as you hold the land.

Land Registration & Title Deed Processing
Once your lease or purchase is approved, we file the registration paperwork with the Lands Department and track it through every stage of processing. We chase down queries, missing signatures, and office backlogs on your behalf, until an official title deed or lease certificate is issued in your name.

Customary-to-State Lease Conversion
We take the customary right you already hold and carry it through the formal conversion process into a 99-year state lease, preparing every supporting form the Ministry requires along the way. We manage the ministerial signoff directly, so you're not left following up on a file that has stalled in someone's inbox.

Inheritance & Succession Documentation
We help families put land succession in writing before it becomes a source of conflict: wills, letters of administration, and succession certificates that name who inherits what. Getting this documented while everyone agrees is far simpler than sorting it out afterward, and it keeps the title clean for whoever inherits.

Power of Attorney & Transfer Documents
Whether you're selling, buying, or need someone to act on your behalf while you're away, we draft the sale agreements, transfer deeds, and powers of attorney that make the transaction legally sound. Every document is checked against the current title so the transfer can't later be challenged on a technicality.
