One of the best places in Bali to invest in real estate is Canggu, a trendy and popular seaside area that is sometimes called ‘kampung bule’, which translates to ‘foreigners’ village’. The demand for apartments in Canggu is very high. Also, some areas of Canggu are still developing, this factor provides significant potential for novice investors.
Foreigners in Bali can buy land, apartments or villas. In general, the choice of the type of real estate depends on the investor’s goal.
However, apartments can be an ideal option, thanks to the relatively low level of investments, compared, for example, to the purchase of a villa, as well as wide functionality:
● a great real estate option for living;
● a good tool for receiving passive income – renting with the support of a management company that undertakes the search for clients, service and solving all organizational issues;
● a profitable option for resale – you can buy apartments during the construction stage and sell the property immediately after its completion (or even in the process) and receive almost 50% of the income from the sale.
When buying apartments at the construction stage, it is important to choose a reliable developer:
● first of all, check all documents: land rights, building rights, tax documents. The consultation of a highly qualified lawyer will help to understand all the intricacies of Indonesian legislation.
● then check the list of works of the developer – it is better if the company already has completed projects.
