Secure Land Registration Management via Ethereum Blockchain

Abstract

Land is a critical asset, and transferring its ownership traditionally requires voluminous paperwork, numerous intermediaries, and multiple verification stages that slow the process and increase the potential for fraud. Researching historical land transfers is likewise cumbersome due to fragmented records. A blockchain-powered land registry can solve these issues by creating a decentralized, immutable ledger that logs every transaction openly. This project presents a secure and efficient land registration system built on the Ethereum blockchain, utilizing Solidity-based smart contracts to automate verification and property transfers. By cutting out middlemen, the platform minimizes corruption, speeds up the process, and increases public trust. Especially in high-volume areas like India, where thousands of property exchanges occur daily, this system reduces the environmental burden caused by excessive paperwork. Beyond efficiency, it also brings the general public closer to digital technology and ensures long-term security for property records. This project aims to design and deploy a user-friendly blockchain-based land registration system that streamlines ownership changes, bolsters security, and reduces environmental impact by cutting down on paper records—particularly beneficial in high-transaction regions like India.
