Questions
Common questions about checking land
How long does it take to check land in Banjul?
The visit usually happens within a few days. Checking the papers depends on the land office; you are told how long with the price.
Do I need to be in Banjul for the check?
No. You follow each step in your file, talk to the surveyor in the job conversation and get the signed report in your vault.
Does the Teewal report replace the title deed?
No. It is proof signed by a professional, useful before you buy. The legal title stays registered with the land office.
Can you pay the seller for me?
No. Teewal never carries or hands over money for anyone. You only pay for the job; the price of the land is settled between you and the seller.
