Absolutely. Many of our clients live abroad. We act as your on-the-ground representative, making sure your property is secure, occupied by quality tenants, and well-maintained, while providing regular updates and transparent financial reporting.

We use a careful screening process, including background checks, income verification, and rental history review. Our goal is to match your property with respectful, reliable tenants who will maintain it as if it were their own.

At Khidra, we handle all ownership checks for you. Before you commit to anything, we ensure the seller provides valid ID, a Tax Identification Number (TIN), and official proof of ownership. We then work with legal professionals to verify the documents so you can invest with complete confidence.

Leased land is owned by the government and common in urban areas. It's yours for a set number of years and must be renewed when the lease ends.

Freehold land, often in rural areas, is owned outright and passed down through families. It never expires. Khidra helps you understand which type suits your goals and ensures all terms are clear before purchase.

We verify your plot directly with the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning before any payment is made. This process checks that no one else has a legal claim on the property, protecting you from costly disputes later.

Once your purchase is complete, Khidra manages the full registration process: securing your Title Deed, Certificate of Ownership, stamped Sales Agreement, Sketch Plan, and any required lease transfer applications. You'll also receive official proof that your land is legally registered in your name.

On average, it takes 3–6 months, though it can be faster if all files are in order. Khidra follows up directly with government offices so you're not left chasing paperwork.

Yes, like any asset, a home can theoretically depreciate in value due to factors such as a lack of maintenance, significant structural issues, or adverse changes in a neighbourhood's desirability.

However, The Gambia's real estate market is currently experiencing a robust and generally upward trend. Driven by a stable investment climate, a booming tourism sector, and ongoing national development, properties in well-maintained conditions and desirable locations are very likely to appreciate, not depreciate.

For sellers, this means the market largely remains favourable. Presenting a well-maintained property in a good location will significantly enhance your selling prospects.

Both older and new homes offer distinct value, appealing to different buyer priorities.

Older homes often boast established locations with mature infrastructure, potentially larger plot sizes, and unique character, with room for renovation and customisation. New homes typically provide modern designs, better energy efficiency and lower initial maintenance costs, often with builder warranties.

Ultimately, the better value depends on each buyer's priorities: location, character, modern features, or renovation potential.

A real estate broker is a licensed professional who acts as an intermediary, facilitating property transactions between buyers and sellers, or tenants and landlords. They offer expertise in market knowledge, negotiation, and legal compliance, typically earning a commission for their services.

Property taxes in The Gambia are typically paid directly by the owner to the relevant local council (for example Kanifing Municipal Council, Banjul City Council or Brikama Area Council) or the Gambia Revenue Authority, usually once a year.

Property insurance is not mandatory in The Gambia but is highly recommended to protect against fire, theft and natural disasters. You can approach local insurers directly and compare quotes and terms.

Initial application and pre-approval usually take 1 to 2 weeks. Full processing and underwriting, including valuation and checks with the Land Registry, take 4 to 8 weeks. Final approval and closing take another 2 to 4 weeks.

In total, expect about 2 to 4 months from application to completion. Submitting all documents on time is the biggest factor in how fast it goes.

Rent often covers the cost of occupying the space only. Utilities like water, electricity, internet and waste collection are usually paid separately by the tenant unless the agreement says otherwise. Some premium properties bundle services such as security or cleaning.

Yes, most landlords or property managers require a security deposit, usually equal to one month's rent, before move-in. It is refundable at the end of your lease, provided there's no damage or outstanding utility bills.

In most cases, yes. Lease renewals are common, but they may come with a rent adjustment. Notify your landlord or property manager at least one month before the lease ends if you plan to renew.

Early termination terms should be set out in your rental agreement. Some landlords allow it with sufficient notice (for example 30 days), while others may require payment for the remaining months. Clarify this before signing.
