Abstract
In the light of the global discussion on
reducing public and private expenditure on
cadastral processes and services, this
article reviews the transaction costs of
land registration, based on data gathered in
Namibia. The data show a large
differentiation in the types of costs
incurred in the process, as well as various
levels of cost recovery. In addition, the
degree to which delays in the operational
registration processes influence the total
cost to land developers and landowners is
reviewed.
