Kolula Pushta Road 25 Kabul is owned by Ahmed with Public Key XYZ.
For it to be transfered to someone else, you need the private key that can pass validation for public key XYZ. Local officials do not have this private key, only Ahmed does, stored in his personal wallet. Local officials could try to temper with their node of the blockchain ledger, but other nodes would catch it and penalize them.
If you need to deal with an edge case, say someone claims Ahmed is dead and they are his heir. Local officials can initiate a transfer where the ledger says "conditional Amhed is dead and thus key XYZ is missing, transferring to his heir Mohammad with key HJL. This could be something that other nodes accept as a transaction. There could be many things here built into the system. You could have the nodes notify some associated email with the current owner Amhed and grant them like 60 days to cancel the transaction. Or you could let Ahmed show back at any time in the future and reclaim the possession, etc.
These are the kind of things that a decentralized trusted network running a blockchain could in theory be designed to manage.
If you narrow "blockchain" simply to mean a signed ledger of transaction that maintain history then no, it's not really that much better, since it's still centrally managed and operated. It's only once you distributed things and let the network define rules of operations that it can become beneficial in my opinion.
Edit: Now that said, even if it was centralized, in theory, the ledger could only be tempered with by people with access to the code of ledger database or its servers. Sometimes you might be able to trust those more so than say any clerk or local official which can only use the software, because they might be better paid or there are less of them and hard to contact and thus bribe. So even in that case, it might be a little better, maybe the local official can enter the transfer in the ledger, but et least if Ahmed goes to court after there is proof that local official X did a transfer on day Y and that Ahmed was the prior owner. Or you could still enforce the need for Ahmed's private key, etc. So there would be more trail or recourse for Ahmed in theory. Then without a blockchain, there'd be no trail, or no need for a key, or it might be possible for users to modify the whole history, etc.
