Land Leasing
with Blockchain
Transforming land leasing with blockchain and smart contracts would provide significant automation, transparency, and cost savings.
Informal Land Leases
in Developing Economies
In many developing economies, particularly in countries in Africa and parts of Asia, informal land leases are common. These informal leases are often verbal agreements or handwritten contracts that lack legal recognition or enforcement. They are often based on traditional customs and practices and may not conform to formal property law.
Blockchain can help by publishing all land registers online, eliminating multiple titles to the same land. In addition, blockchain in leasing transactions aims to transform and simplify the initial stages of signing lease agreements, lease payments and the subsequent property management process.
Challenges
To Be Addressed
Unavailability of Updated Documentation for rental and leased properties makes them susceptible to fabrication.
The collected data is available by a governing authority and can be tweaked informally.
Joint or multiple ownership with incomplete documentation leads to forgery.
Integrating Blockchain Technology
in Land Leasing
Blockchain technology will initiate a transition in the economy and provide better traceability.
Blockchain-Based Property Search
Activating the Multiple Listing System
Using smart identities for cross-verification
Integration of smart contracts for lease agreements
Automated Payments and Documentation with a Time Stamp
Real-Time Analysis
Benefits of Using Blockchain
in Land Leasing
From the initial purchase to the current contract, complete documentation of the property information will be freely available across the peer-to-peer network, increasing the reach of potential future stakeholders and maximizing transparency to avoid malicious activities.
Integrating smart contracts with automated payments will make the whole process mechanised, minimising the error of a manual process.
The process will be more reliable and authentic as any governing authority cannot mutate the data embedded in the blockchain.
Automating each step will reduce costs on a huge scale.
