Form LRA 64 (Lease - Long Term) is a specialized land registration document used in Kenya for the creation of leasehold interests that typically exceed 21 years or involve sectional properties. This form is jurisdiction-specific to Kenya and is governed by Regulation 77(1) of the Land Registration (General) Regulations, 2017, enacted under the Land Registration Act, 2012. It provides the legal framework for a property owner (Lessor) to grant long-term possession of land or a specific unit to a Lessee, often used in modern developments such as apartments, offices, and gated communities.
This advocate-reviewed template is available for download on wansom.ai and is intended for real estate developers, long-term residential and commercial tenants, management companies, and conveyancing advocates. Using Form LRA 64 is essential for ensuring that long-term interests are formally registered, providing the Lessee with a bankable title and ensuring the Lessor's reversionary rights are protected
The downloadable template includes comprehensive fields for the Title Number, Term of the Lease, and Rent/Stand Premium. Unique to long-term leases, it features dedicated sections for a Management Company (including registration details and service address) and requires the attachment of a Cadastral Plan or Sectional Plan to accurately define the demised premises. The form specifically allows for additional provisions regarding the extension of the lease and the transfer of reversionary interests.
To be legally valid, the document must be executed as a deed by all parties, including any Guarantors. It requires a mandatory Certificate of Verification under Section 45 of the Land Registration Act, necessitating the attachment and authentication of colored passport photographs, National ID/Passport numbers, and Tax PIN numbers for all signatories. This legally compliant, ready-to-use template ensures that long-term property rights are securely established and registered within Kenya's land system.
