but why? I already have the title to my house

All other examples of things being done electronically that were done physically go here.
I think this isn't quite as implementable as they say it is. If someone breaks into a house, steals the crypto phrase from a little old lady, and moves a house into his name/address, should he really own it?

If a Blockchain contract needs to be ratified by an external entity, is the Blockchain really worth it over a database owned by that external entity?

Property ownership is already recorded electronically.
I have my title electronically. I see literally zero benefit to involving the blockchain, but there seem to be quite a few downsides.
