This thesis investigates the application of blockchain technology to enhance transparency and security in real estate transactions. The real estate industry is known for its complex and often opaque processes, leading to inefficiencies, fraud, and lack of trust among stakeholders. By leveraging the decentralized and immutable nature of blockchain technology, this study aims to address these challenges and create a more transparent and secure environment for real estate transactions. The research begins with a comprehensive introduction that outlines the background of the study, identifies the problem statement, and sets the objectives. The limitations and scope of the study are also defined, highlighting the significance of utilizing blockchain in the real estate sector. The structure of the thesis is detailed to provide a roadmap for the reader, followed by a clear definition of key terms used throughout the study. Chapter two presents a thorough literature review, analyzing existing research on blockchain technology and its applications in real estate. The review covers topics such as blockchain fundamentals, smart contracts, tokenization of assets, and case studies of blockchain implementation in real estate transactions. The review identifies gaps in the current literature and sets the foundation for the research methodology. Chapter three outlines the research methodology employed in this study, including the research design, data collection methods, sampling techniques, and data analysis procedures. The chapter also discusses ethical considerations and potential biases that may impact the research outcomes. By utilizing a mixed-methods approach, the study aims to gather both quantitative and qualitative data to provide a comprehensive analysis of the topic. Chapter four presents the findings of the study, showcasing the impact of blockchain technology on transparency and security in real estate transactions. The analysis includes key insights from industry experts, real estate professionals, and blockchain developers, highlighting the benefits and challenges of adopting blockchain in the real estate sector. The chapter also explores potential future trends and implications for the industry. Finally, chapter five concludes the thesis by summarizing the key findings, discussing the implications for real estate stakeholders, and offering recommendations for further research and practical implementation. The study underscores the transformative potential of blockchain technology in enhancing transparency and security in real estate transactions, paving the way for a more efficient and trustworthy industry landscape. In conclusion, this thesis contributes to the growing body of knowledge on blockchain technology and its applications in real estate, offering valuable insights for industry practitioners, policymakers, and researchers. By harnessing the power of blockchain, real estate transactions can become more transparent, secure, and reliable, ultimately benefiting all stakeholders involved in the process.
