I'm really happy for you, Chidi. I moved to Cambodia from Europe in 2019 & have been doing a bit of real estate investing here since 2014. However, I doubt most people watching this video have $400K to spend *in cash* on a land & house. Of course, if you're loaded anything is easy & there are no unsolvable problems. Just keep in mind that the locals live on a few thousand $$ per year.

[@shauntoomey3299]

For all those enamoured by the buy Bali plan that is all well and good you should do what feels right for your particular circumstances. Another route is to invest in property in your own country where you can gain freehold and have protection of law and residence. You can then lease short medium or long-term in Bali or for that matter anywhere in Asia/World using the rental income to offset. This reduces your exposure to political and economic upheavals in a foreign country where your ability to seek redress or financial exit might be reduced. If you are considering a forever move to Bali you may be more inclined to tie your economic property prospects to the Balinese and Indonesian economies. Best of luck on whatever path you take.

[@samm9496]

Hi Chidi ,... its great that you've bought yourself a piece of asset on a foreign land... to all the nay sayers and envy out there ,give her a break will you, she's HAPPY to have "owned" a piece of land in Bali. Let us all be happy for her and thats all she wants.... Let's not get into all the legality/wording (pt-pma) of purchasing a land in Bali by a foreigner. Many foreigner has done it (legally) aka leasing it under different context. And am happy to live there for a long² time to come... Ok ,she did mention that its for investment (approx USD350K spent), if she's able to rent it out let say usd100 per nite with a turnover of at least usd1500 per month in clean profit to which already minus the misc cost(U need ppl to run that place) and everything else, for a year thats USD18000 multiple by (assuming leasing for) 25year hold lease on the property with pt-pma and thats USD 450,000.... THATS NOT FREAKING BAD for an investment of usd350K right .... You go girl.... Myself ,having been to Bali every year except 2020,... I do acknowledge the attitude and character of the Balinese ppl but when it boils down to day to day business dealings, things may get a little complicated 😅... and in that sense, I wish you the very best in your future endeavour. I hope one day after the pandemic I can meet you and chill over a cup of coffee in Bali... my base is in Ubud ...yeahhh😁

[@petertruong4244]

Great video by the way! Just to clear things up for any potential future investors that want to move to Bali, Indonesia... A non-Indonesian citizen CANNOT own land in Indonesia. However a foreigner can acquire a leasehold title to building almost the same as a strata title except that the title except lasts only for 25 years extension or 30 years or maximum of 55 years and then the land be reverts back to the original owner. Quick question... Did you use an Nominee ownership through in which land is purchased by a nominee? What title do you hold? Hak Milil ( Freehold) or Hak Pakai ( Essentially leasehold)

Okay so your 23 an just the fact that you had $375,000 in the bank PERIOD is a huge accomplishment in it self! I'm curious Chidi about your home decor. I would miss not having Zgallerie or Home Good pieces (here in the USA). When you moved to Bali were you able to take some of your "prized possessions" with you? For example, I have a piece of hanging art work that I would definitely want to have in my future home overseas (I currently live in Dallas TX), but just the thought of figuring out how it would get there in 1 piece would be daunting! I commend you on all your successes an hope one day I can go on one of your group trips! Do you personally attend every group trip?

Chidi, i lived in Bali for about a one month and a half in August 2019. It was there where i studied for my Yoga certification. I stayed in Ubud. I was under the impression that only Indonesians were able to buy land in Bali. Clearly that is incorrect information. I am sorry i did not see your videos when i was doing my research before i visited. I would have loved to connect because i too am interested in possibly making Bali my next home. I am a woman of a certain age and in a few years, i cannot believe i saying this, i will leave New York City. Did i really admit that. I always said they would take me out kicking and screaming. Funny what you believe when you are very young. Anyway, i will visit again next year hopefully, when everything gets better. It is the most remarkable place i have ever been. The people are warm.

@@ED-lk7il Thanks. I'm laughing because here in Cambodia, I've been buying & selling land from 2014 until 2016, after which prices shot up due to the Chinese taking over in Sihanoukville (we're about 120 km from there, with no other city between us). I drew the line back then at $11 / m2. On average, I spent between $5 - 7,50/m2. For me, $100 p. m2 is outrageous. Hilarious, I know.

[@LindaRosem]

We have Indonesian friends who have property over there and we’ve been told several times by many people that only Indonesians are legally allowed to actually purchase land in Bali, to prevent the land being purchased up by foreigners. We’ve been told that foreigners are allowed to lease land for hundreds of years at a time so it’s as if you purchased it, but that the ownership actually stays with someone who is Indonesian. Has this changed then? You kept mentioning you purchased the land and it was transferred into your name so I’m curious as to how that worked?

[@Chidi_Ashley]

Hi hi! Legally you can lease the land under your name for a given number of years and then renew this - that is the most secure way to invest here in Bali ❤️ There are other options however more complex
