REAL Estate Registration Project

The objective of the Real Estate Registration Project for Bosnia and Herzegovina is to support development of a sustainable real estate registration system with harmonized land register and cadastre records in urban areas of both the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (FBH) and the Republika Srpska (RS). The project has three components. (1) Real estate registration data development component will support land register and cadastre data harmonization on land, buildings and rights based on the actual situation in the field. (2) Real estate registration infrastructure development component will continue Land Registration Project (LRP) work in improving working conditions and infrastructure in the cadastre offices across the country and in those few land registration offices in the FBH that were not targeted by LRP through: office renovations and purchases; creation of digital archives; and provision of furniture and equipment. The office purchases planned in RS have to be approved by the Land Committee of the World Bank. Policy and institutional development, and project management component will support policy and legal development in support of reaching the project development objective. The objective is to enhance sustainability of the real estate registration. The component will have a strong focus on institutional development and capacity building, addressing the long term challenges of sustainability and governance of real estate registers and emphasizing financial sustainability, quality of service and client orientation and social vulnerabilities.
