Ontario’s Electronic Land Registration System (ELRS) was developed in full collaboration with the Government of Ontario, as well as key stakeholders in the legal community.
The Ontario ELRS is widely recognized as the most sophisticated, secure and efficient electronic land registration system in the world. Our platforms facilitate online property searches and registrations, writ searches, and other regulated services.
Platforms
