WHY BALI ATTRACTS INVESTORS ?

Bali is far more than a holiday destination. It is one of the most visited islands in the world, with consistently growing tourism and rental demand that shows no sign of slowing down.

In 2025, Bali welcomed nearly 7 million international visitors, a historic record, surpassing even pre-pandemic figures. Every year, a new wave of travellers discovers the island: digital nomads, European retirees, Australian families, Asian luxury travellers.

This influx creates strong and lasting rental demand, making Bali one of the most attractive real estate markets in Southeast Asia.

GOT A PROJECT IN MIND ?

Whether you're still exploring or ready to take action, I personally respond to every enquiry. Let's talk about your project.

WHAT'S CHANGING

• Indonesian authorities are tightening controls on illegal constructions and unlicensed rentals

• Well-built, well-located, and well-managed projects are clearly standing out

• The island is no longer a real estate "Wild West", it's a professionalising market

• Structurally strong tourism demand

• Prices still very competitive compared to Europe, Australia or the US

• Real long-term capital appreciation potential

THE BALINESE REAL ESTATE MARKET

A market that has grown up, not a bubble

After the post-pandemic euphoria of 2022–2024, Bali's real estate market is entering a phase of maturity in 2026. Low-quality projects and promises of unrealistic returns are giving way to a more demanding environment which is great news for serious investors.

WHAT REMAIN

And one major project worth watching: the construction of a second international airport in northern Bali, approved by the Indonesian President in 2025 with a planned $3 billion investment. An ambitious project that, if it comes to fruition, could profoundly transform northern Bali and redistribute real estate demand across the entire island.

LEASEHOLD EXPLAINED SIMPLY

In Indonesia, foreigners cannot hold full freehold title on land. The most common and accessible solution is the leasehold a long-term land use agreement that grants you all rights to use and enjoy the property.

Leasehold: investing legally as a foreigner

HOW IT WORKS ?

• You sign a lease agreement for a period of typically 25 to 30 years

• The lease is renewable and can be extended before it expires

• You can rent, renovate, and resell your property throughout the lease period

• The contract is notarised and legally binding

What this means in practice: A well-structured 30-year leasehold allows you to fully enjoy your villa, generate rental income, and resell your lease rights at a profit if the market evolves favourably.

The key: working with the right legal experts from the start. That's exactly what I do for every project.
