Certificate of Occupancy

The Certificate of Occupancy (C of O) is a vital document that legally confirms your right to possess and use a parcel of land. Within the Redemption Camp environment, having a C of O not only provides legal recognition but also secures your investment, prevents disputes, and grants access to financial and developmental opportunities.

Why is the Certificate of Occupancy Important?

Whether you're planning to build, sell, or simply formalize your existing land use, the C of O serves as your proof of ownership. It protects your interests and ensures that your land is recognized in official records.

This application process has been simplified for your convenience. Before proceeding, please ensure that your land allocation is already approved and that you have your supporting documents ready.
