How to Buy Land Back Home Without Getting Scammed

Description

This 90-minute video course is the most comprehensive guide to buying land as a diaspora that exists online. It covers the entire process from start to finish: how to verify land titles (and what 'customary land' actually means), how to select and vet a lawyer in your target country, stamp duty rates by country (Nigeria 1-10%, Ghana 1%, Kenya 4%), negotiation tactics that work in African markets, how to avoid the 7 most common diaspora land scams (including the 'family dispute' scam, the 'double sale' scam, and the 'fake title' scam). The course includes real case studies — anonymized stories from diaspora who lost money, and what they'd do differently. Each module includes a printable checklist and a 'questions to ask your lawyer' template. By the end, you'll know exactly how to protect yourself when buying land back home.

Why I made this

I almost lost $15,000 to a land scam in 2023. The 'seller' had a forged title and a convincing story. A $200 title search would have caught it. I built this course so nobody else has to learn the hard way.
