    Why Invest

    Why International Buyers ChooseBali

    Outstanding Rental Yields

    Well-located Canggu and Uluwatu villas regularly deliver 10–18 % gross yields — 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 — 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 25–80 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 (≈ USD 130,000) in a local Indonesian bank or qualifying property — a direct route to Bali residency.

    Property & Rental Taxation

    Annual Land & Building Tax (PBB) is 0.1–0.3 % of NJOP value — 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.

    Hidden Perks

    The Lifestyle Advantages You Won't Find in a Brochure

    Cost of Living Arbitrage

    A premium expat lifestyle in Bali costs 40–60 % less than equivalents in Western Europe — making it an ideal base for entrepreneurs and remote workers running global businesses.

    Cultural & Spiritual Depth

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

    Climate & Connectivity

    Year-round 28–32 °C tropical climate. Direct flights to Singapore, KL, Jakarta, Sydney and Hong Kong from Ngurah Rai International — Bali is genuinely connected to all of Asia-Pacific.
