Our Value to Hong Kong
 

  • Over half of all Hong Kong families own registered property or are becoming property owners

  • Banks and financial institutions loan over HK$1,000 billion against the security of registered land and property

  • Over 4 million searches of registered information take place each year

  • 60 Government departments use Land Registry information for purposes ranging from planning studies and criminal investigations to guidance on allocating public housing benefits and social security

  • Registered information traces property transactions back to 1844. Some records have information going back to the 1700s. The registers are a resource for the economic and social history of Hong Kong
