An online platform to ensure secure land transactions and monitoring, while enhancing the validation of title deeds, is crucial in addressing the challenges and inefficiencies of land related disputes. By leveraging technology and providing a streamlined and accessible platform, this project aims to revolutionise the way landowners, buyers, sellers, and government officials interact with land-related processes. The need for such a platform is to reduce the occurrences of land disputes and fraudulent transactions by providing a secure and reliable online environment. The online platform offers immense convenience and accessibility for stakeholders involved since it provides an additional layer of trust and authenticity to land transactions. Users can easily access and manage their property information, track transaction history, and communicate with each other, saving time and effort. Government officials can efficiently monitor and review land transactions, ensuring compliance with regulations and detecting irregularities easily, increasing transparency in the real estate market.
