The conversion of the Right to Build (Hak Guna Bangunan or HGB) into the Right of Ownership (Hak Milik or HM) over residential property constitutes an important land administration service because it directly concerns legal certainty, the protection of land tenure, and the economic value of residential property. This study examines the implementation of the conversion of HGB into HM at the Padang City Land Office and identifies the obstacles encountered in the process. The study employs a descriptive research design using a normative juridical approach supported by an empirical juridical approach. Primary data were obtained through interviews with officials of the Padang City Land Office and several applicants, while secondary data were derived from legislation, books, scholarly journals, and official institutional sources. The data were analyzed qualitatively and presented descriptively. The findings indicate that the conversion procedure has generally been implemented in accordance with Law Number 5 of 1960, Government Regulation Number 18 of 2021, and the applicable technical standards for land services. The procedure comprises the submission of an application, examination of documents, verification of physical and juridical data, and issuance of a Right of Ownership certificate. Nevertheless, implementation has not yet been fully effective. External obstacles include inconsistencies between physical and juridical data, unclear land boundaries, missing boundary markers, inheritance-related issues, objections by third parties, and limited public understanding of land administration procedures. Internal obstacles primarily concern insufficient human resources in comparison with the increasing volume of applications. The study concludes that legal certainty in the conversion of HGB into HM requires not only compliance with the applicable legal framework, but also improved maintenance of land data, stronger public legal literacy, preventive verification, and enhanced institutional capacity within the land office.
