Real Property Act (various jurisdictions)

The Real Property Act varies by jurisdiction but generally governs the ownership and transfer of land and real estate. It establishes a framework for recording property titles, ensuring that ownership is clear and legally recognized. This act aims to simplify property transactions, protect owners' rights, and prevent disputes over land ownership. By establishing a formal system for registering properties, it provides transparency and security for buyers and sellers, making it easier to prove ownership and transfer property rights. As a result, it plays a crucial role in real estate markets and land management.
