Thesis Abstract

Abstract
The real estate industry is known for its complexity and lack of transparency in transactions, leading to challenges such as fraud, delays, and disputes. Blockchain technology has emerged as a potential solution to address these issues by providing a secure and transparent platform for recording and verifying transactions. This thesis explores the utilization of blockchain technology to enhance transparency in real estate transactions, aiming to improve efficiency, reduce fraud, and increase trust among stakeholders. The study begins with an introduction to the background of the real estate industry, highlighting the existing challenges and the need for increased transparency. The problem statement emphasizes the significance of addressing transparency issues in real estate transactions and the potential benefits of blockchain technology in this context. The objectives of the study are outlined to investigate the impact of blockchain technology on transparency in real estate transactions, identify limitations, and define the scope of the research. A comprehensive literature review in Chapter Two examines existing studies and reports on blockchain technology and its application in the real estate sector. The review covers topics such as the principles of blockchain technology, its benefits and limitations, and previous implementations in real estate transactions. Key findings from the literature review inform the research methodology in Chapter Three, which outlines the approach, data collection methods, and analysis techniques used in the study. Chapter Four presents the detailed discussion of the research findings, focusing on the impact of blockchain technology on transparency in real estate transactions. The analysis includes case studies, interviews with industry experts, and a comparative evaluation of traditional versus blockchain-based transactions. The discussion highlights the benefits of blockchain technology in enhancing transparency, reducing fraud, and streamlining processes in real estate transactions. In conclusion, Chapter Five summarizes the key findings of the study and provides recommendations for implementing blockchain technology to improve transparency in real estate transactions. The thesis contributes to the growing body of research on blockchain technology in real estate and offers insights for industry stakeholders, policymakers, and researchers interested in leveraging technology for increased transparency and trust in transactions. Overall, this research demonstrates the potential of blockchain technology to revolutionize the real estate industry by improving transparency, efficiency, and security in transactions, ultimately benefiting all parties involved.
