Traditional　property　rights　registration　and　handover　systems,　exemplified　by　real　estate　transactions,　suffer　from　inefficiencies,　lack　of　transparency,　and　vulnerabilitu　to　fraud　and　data　breaches.　This　paper　introduces　a　novel　＇Blockchain-enhanced　Hybrid　Scheme　for　Right　Registration　and　Handover＇　that　aims　to　address　these　challenges　while　preserving　the　value　of　existing　infrastructure　investments.　The　scheme　integrates　blockchain　technology　with　traditional　systems,　leveraging　its　strengths　of　immutability,　traceability,　and　decentralized　trust.　At　the　core　of　our　approach　are　Hashed　TimeLock　Contracts　(HTLCs)　and　a　Reputation　Evaluation　Mechanism.　HTLCs　ensure　atomicity　and　fairness　in　transactions,　enabling　secure　and　automated　handovers　of　rights　while　mitigating　the　risk　of　fraud.　The　Reputation　Evaluation　Mechanism　fosters　trust　among　participants　by　quantifying　their　transactional　history　and　conduct,　promoting　a　reliable　and　transparent　marketplace.　Our　experimental　analysis　demonstrates　the　feasibility　and　efficiency　of　the　proposed　scheme.　The　results　show　that　the　system　performs　well　under　different　user　loads　and　provides　a　secure　and　transparent　environment　for　rights　registration　and　handover.　While　our　scheme　offers　a　promising　solution,　further　research　is　needed　to　explore　potential　challenges　and　improvements.　©　The　Author(s),　under　exclusive　license　to　Springer　Nature　Singapore　Pte　Ltd.　2025.
