Following a reduction in property registration time by a number of African countries, Kenya, has followed suit and managed to reduce the number of days to register commercial property from about 70 to 60 in the period that run between year 2012 and 2017.

According to the data from Centre for African Housing Finance (CAHF) annual housing yearbook, in most African countries the number of days it takes to register commercial property for African countries between 2012 and 2017 reduced to its lowest where in west African countries, it took about 230 days to register commercial property as of 2017, an improvement of just 15 days from 2012.
