Daejeon 'Josang Land Retrieval' Service Gains Popularity and Sees Increase in Applicants

[Asia Economy (Daejeon) Reporter Jeong Il-woong] The number of applicants using the 'Ancestor Land Search' service is increasing every year.

Daejeon City announced on the 5th that out of 19,569 applicants for the Ancestor Land Search service last year, 5,060 people were provided with land information covering 21,821,701㎡.

The Ancestor Land Search service allows nationwide inquiry of land registered under ancestors who unexpectedly passed away due to unforeseen accidents.

Previously in Daejeon, through this service, 1,711 people (6,234,000㎡) in 2016, 2,205 people (10,890,000㎡) in 2017, and 3,527 people (19,593,000㎡) in 2018 received land-related information, showing a steady increase in the number of users of the Ancestor Land Search service by year.

To use the service, those with inheritance rights can apply by preparing their ID and the family register copy of the deceased (for deaths after 2008, a family relation certificate and basic certificate are required).

In cases where an agent must apply, the agent can visit the city hall or the nearest district office with a power of attorney and copies of the IDs of both the principal and the agent to use the related services.

To check land owned by oneself, one can bring an ID and visit the city hall or district office directly, or access the real estate portal C:REAL and find information through the 'My Land Search Service' in the comprehensive real estate information menu.

Jung Ha-shin, head of the Land Information Division of the city, said, “We will strive to help more citizens quickly receive land information through the Ancestor Land Search service to assist in exercising and protecting property rights.”
