More than 139,000 transactions affecting real property are registered in the provincial Land Registration Offices each year, about 630 transactions per work day. That means that, traditionally, more than 400 books of documents were registered each year. The E-Land Registry team is working county-by-county to convert all books, plans, and indices to electronic format and upload them for online access.

The following information is updated monthly.
