Straight answers about property in Samoa.
For Samoans overseas buying, leasing, or trying to sort out land they’ve inherited. Run by a barrister and a chartered accountant — with every fee published before you pick up the phone.
A lawyer and an accountant — not a sales team
Ainuu Law Firm and Apia Chartered Accountants. Nobody else in Samoa offers this combination.
Every fee published
Listing fees, our commission, conveyancing rates — all on one page, before you commit.
We work with you from overseas
Video walkthroughs, prices in tālā and NZD, calls scheduled to your timezone.
Customary land handled properly
We verify who holds the authority to lease before anything is advertised. No exceptions.
Most people find out what it costs when it’s too late.
Hidden fees that appear at settlement. A commission you owe to an agency you’d forgotten you signed with. Family land in Savai’i that four cousins each believe is theirs. A block you’ve been paying rates on for eleven years without knowing what it’s worth.
None of this is unusual. All of it is avoidable — if someone tells you the truth early enough.
