5 Tips to Find Cheaper House for Sale in Bali as a Foreigner

Get your House for sale in Bali for Cheaper with these 5 tips:

1. Do your research
   Study the market, the best locations, and the dynamics of the property prices for the last few years. You can ask for advice in ex-pat communities, seek professional assistance from an agent, or research reputable online sources for current information. 
   
   Be mindful of online scammers or getting outdated information. Double-check everything and remember to avoid any source that recommends purchasing via a local nominee.
   
   Even if you are set to buy a turn-key Bali investment property, completing your research is invaluable. Owning a property in Bali should not be a rushed decision. You will have to take care of maintenance, upkeep, taxes, and paperwork. If you choose to rent out your property you will also have to take care of rental management and make sure all legalities are taken care of too.  Ilot Property can do all of it for you ensuring your investment journey is hassle and risk-free.
   
   

2. Find a full-process developer who will take care of all stages of the process

3. Buy an off-plan house for sale in Bali.
   Buying off-plan property is significantly cheaper than buying a finished property and it is the best way to maximise your returns and ensure the highest quality build to your exact specifications.
   
   You get the flexibility to modify the design to suit your style and tastes. And you have solid shoulders to take care of all the stresses for you. You only have to wait for your turn-key villa to be completed and plan your stay with the management team. You also gain the peace of mind of knowing your property has been developed with extensive knowledge of high-quality materials and western building standards.
   
   Your luxury villa will be completed within 10 months and our marketing and management services will ensure 13% to 16% annual returns on your investment.
   
   

4. Choose the right location
   Many digital nomads and entrepreneurs choose Canggu for its active lifestyle and networking. It is also a booming tourism destination and if you are looking for high returns on property investment, Canggu is one of the hottest locations.
   
   Families prefer Nusa Dua and Sanur, while single residents and couples love Ubud, Uluwatu and Umalas. Umalas has recently become the fastest-growing development and investment destination, as it is right next to Canggu facilities and yet remains peaceful and quiet. 
   
   Talk to the team about choosing the right location for your next home or investment property.
   
   

5. Pay in phases
   If you buy a finished house for sale in Bali you will normally have to settle all payments upfront. Not everyone can make a one-time payment and transfer all savings to Indonesia. Buying off-plan is the key to a scheduled payment.  At Ilot Property we understand that and we have created a 5-step payment plan for clients who decided to buy an off-plan house for sale in Bali with us. To start the process you will only need a 10% down payment. 
   
   Paying in phases makes the process transparent – you see the result and you pay, and stress-free – you know when and how much you need to pay so you can budget your villa project. The final payment will be due only 3 months after we finish your house.

Houses for sale in Bali FAQ 

Can a foreigner buy a house in Bali?

Absolutely! Foreigners can buy a house and live in Bali or rent it as individuals under a leasehold agreement or through a PT PMA company that they set up to introduce money into the Indonesian property market.

The process of setting up a company requires large investments and a lot of attention and knowledge, yet the Indonesian government is looking toward creating a long-term Digital nomad visa and is welcoming foreign investments. Meanwhile, leasehold is a legal and affordable way to own property for foreigners in Bali.

How much does a house in Bali cost?

The short answer is how long is a piece of string! On average a one-bedroom apartment or house for sale in Canggu for example can cost from $250,000. The larger the house is, the better the location – the higher the price. You can see the projects we are currently developing for an accurate reflection of quality, cost-effective build in Bali today.
