Australian Land Registry

The Australian Land Registry is a government authority responsible for recording and maintaining information about land ownership and property transactions in Australia. It tracks who owns what land, any mortgages or liens on properties, and details about land boundaries. This system helps ensure legal clarity over property rights, supports the buying and selling of land, and provides essential data for planning and development. Each state and territory has its own land registry office, ensuring that property records are accurately kept and accessible to the public, thus fostering transparency in the real estate market.
