    Why Invest

    Why International Buyers ChooseBali

    Outstanding Rental Yields

    Well-located Canggu and Uluwatu villas regularly deliver 10โ€“18 % gross yields โ€” the highest of any major lifestyle market globally. Average daily rates have grown 30 %+ since 2019.

    Tourism Resurgence

    Bali welcomed 5.3 M international visitors in 2023, surpassing pre-pandemic levels. The new Bali Subway, expanded airport, and Nusa Dua infrastructure all support sustained growth.

    Digital Nomad Economy

    Canggu and Ubud have become global digital-nomad capitals. The new Second-Home Visa (5+5 years for IDR 2 B in qualifying assets) attracts long-stay HNWI residents creating year-round rental demand.

    Tax & Legal Framework

    Tax Rules Every Buyer Should Know

    A high-level overview โ€” always consult a qualified tax advisor before structuring a purchase. We work with trusted partners across each jurisdiction.

    Leasehold vs Freehold

    Foreigners cannot directly own freehold land (Hak Milik), but can hold leasehold (Hak Pakai) for 25โ€“80 years, or use a PT PMA (foreign-owned company) structure for commercial-use properties. Always work with a vetted notary.

    Second-Home Visa Pathway

    Indonesia's Second-Home Visa offers 5- or 10-year residency to foreigners who hold IDR 2 B (โ‰ˆ USD 130,000) in a local Indonesian bank or qualifying property โ€” a direct route to Bali residency.

    Property & Rental Taxation

    Annual Land & Building Tax (PBB) is 0.1โ€“0.3 % of NJOP value โ€” extremely low. Rental income is taxed at 10 % (final, for individuals) or via PT PMA at corporate rate. Capital gains: 2.5 % final tax on sale.

    Cultural & Spiritual Depth

    Beyond tourism, Bali offers genuine Hindu cultural depth, world-class wellness retreats, and a thriving creative economy โ€” a lifestyle that simply does not exist elsewhere.

    Climate & Connectivity

    Year-round 28โ€“32 ยฐC tropical climate. Direct flights to Singapore, KL, Jakarta, Sydney and Hong Kong from Ngurah Rai International โ€” Bali is genuinely connected to all of Asia-Pacific.
