The Land Registration Authority shares with the public the results of the computerization of its services at the Philippines’ largest housing fair
At the recently concluded Lamudi Housing Fair, the Land Registration Authority (LRA) took the opportunity to share information with the event’s attendees regarding the agency’s services that has resulted from its efforts to digitize its records and computerize its processes.
Last October 13 to 15, Lamudi Philippines held its second annual Lamudi Housing Fair at Megatrade Hall 1 of SM Megamall in Mandaluyong. A gathering of the biggest names in the real estate industry, the event was inaugurated by key officials from the government’s key shelter agencies. Among them were Atty. Robert Nomar V. Leyretana, Deputy Administrator of the LRA, who updated the public about the agency’s services.
According to Atty. Leyretana, the LRA has successfully computerized 159 out of the Philippines’ 167 Registry of Deeds (RD) offices through its Land Titling Computerization Project (LTCP). The implementation of the LTCP has since led to consequential services that the agency now uses to better serves its clientele.
LRA Title Upgrade Program and e-Titling
In an effort to digitally back up records and make them accessible between the RD offices around the country, the LRA embarked on the Title Upgrade Program (TUP), where physical titles are scanned and digitized for its specific RD’s safekeeping.
Seeing that not all physical titles have been subject to TUP, the LRA continues to offer holders of manually-issued to visit the agency to have them updated and receive their own copies of upgraded e-Titles.
Anywhere to Anywhere (A2A)
Another service that Atty. Leyretana touched on was the LRA’s Anywhere to Anywhere (A2A), letting the Lamudi Housing Fair attendees know that as a result of the agency’s digitization of RDs, they can now request for certified true copies of their land titles without having to travel to the specific RD office it is kept, and instead request for it to be sent to the RD office nearest to them.
According to Atty. Leyretana, this is beneficial not only to individual property buyers or sellers, but also property developers and lending institutions involved in the real estate transaction process. To get more information on A2A and other LRA’s services, all are encouraged to visit the nearest RD office or log on to the LRA’s official website.
Bigger and Brighter Lamudi Housing Fair
On its second installment, the 2017 Lamudi Housing Fair was held in an effort to bring together thousands of homebuyers, property investors, brokers and other real estate professionals. Reception from exhibitors during Lamudi’s past events were very positive, with many of them reporting that they were able to gather hundreds of hot leads, recruit professional and licensed brokers, and closed deals on the spot.
Sharing a commitment to make the real estate process more convenient, the LRA was invited to participate in the Lamudi Housing Fair for the agency to reach a wide audience and increase awareness regarding its initiatives, and how Lamudi users can benefit from using some of the agency’s services in their property search and acquisition.
