LRA digitizes land title transactions

Published Nov 14, 2022 02:01 pm

The Land Registration Authority (LRA) announced that its Land Titling Computerization Project (LTCP) has digitized land title transactions in the country through its enhanced eSerbisyo portal.

LRA Administrator Gerardo P. Sirios said during the Subdivision and Housing Developers Association’s (SHDA) National Developers Convention 2022 noted it has already streamlined the processing of certified true copies (CTC) of documents and titles via its port.

“The new normal is right now coming from the pandemic two years ago. We see internet use during the work-from-home arrangement. Thus, we are trying to improve our computerization program,” said Sirios.

The LTCP aims to have more secured titles and documents and prevent duplication and overlaps; standardize the processes, fees and requirements; have up-to-date information and records available and accessible anywhere, and have disaster recovery and business continuity.

Through the eSerbisyo portal, Filipinos may now request CTC of documents and land titles from LRA by registering to the platform, providing the details of the requested document, and paying through the chosen payment channel. The requested documents will then deliver at the customer’s doorstep.

Meantime, technology provider Land Registration Systems Inc. (LARES) has nationwide operation to support all the registry deeds of LRA.

LARES CEO and President Teddy Sumulong said they supported LRA from computerization to printing, ensuring LRA can achieve their goals of providing the general public with the service they require.

LARES now include e-payment options in the eSerbisyo portal through Gcash, Paymaya, Landbank, and any Mastercard, JCB and Visa cards to fast-track the request.

“Without technology, there are many things we cannot do. Now, we have already scanned roughly 95 percent of the titles of LRA, and we hope to complete some balances within the year,” Sumulong stressed.

Implemented under the Build-Operate-Transfer law using the Build-Operate-Own scheme, the LTCP enabled services such as title upgrade program, citizen’s land registration portal, Philippines personal property security registry, and online payment system.

SHDA President May Rodriguez noted that the LRA and LARES modernization project will help not only the developers but also their customers in acquiring titles conveniently in just a few clicks, especially as they provide an e-payment option and a door-to-door delivery.

On the other hand, SHDA National Developers Convention Chairperson Maya K. Colayco stressed, “The modernization program of the LRA – specifically the e-Serbisyo’s computerization and digitization of the titling process – will enhance efficiency in the issuance and processing of CTCs. This is important to the operations of housing developers and the housing industry and will greatly enhance access and delivery of housing services and units to the homebuyers.”
