HOW TO BUY A VILLA WITH LONGITUDE



If your villa does not generate income, you do not have to be in possession of a particular visa. Otherwise, you will have to build a company that will allow you to generate income legally.

Owning in Indonesia does not entitle you to a KITAS. You can, for example, create a company to hold a work KITAS. For more information, do not hesitate to contact us .

It is impossible for a foreigner to obtain a credit (except special case). Regarding your borrowing opportunities in your country, unfortunately this is an issue we do not control because it depends on several factors. For example, some of our clients have already made loans in exchange for a mortgage in their country.

The purchase proceeds in the following way, it being specified that, as far as possible, we adapt the whole purchase process according to the requests of our customers:

  • Definition of your needs, set a timeline and schedule
  • Signature of the contract meeting your requirements and your specifications,
  • Payment of a first deposit,
  • Realisation of plans, if outside villa catalog,
  • Validation of the documents and payment of the corresponding instalments,
  • Visit to Bali, signing documents essential to the purchase of the property, meeting with the various professionals (banker, notary, lawyer ...)
  • Acquisition of the land, on the spot or by proxy,
  • Payment of the various constructions, being specified that the payments will be made according to the progression of the works and in accordance with the clauses of our contract.

Our company accompanies you throughout the entire travel process, it being specified that each of our customers is the object of a particular attention and that we personalise as much as possible all the stages, according to your needs and your requirements. The procedure is therefore scalable and flexible:

  1. We will discuss together the best periods to organise your stay in Bali and you will decide, according to your availability, dates that suit you.
  2. Your accommodation in Bali: we can assist you in this process and direct you to our partner hotels,
  3. We send you a driver at the airport, accompanied by our customer manager, who will escort you to your hotel,
  4. During your stay, we take care of everything, visits related to your purchase (architect, bank, notary) and cultural visits to immerse yourself in Bali (at your expense),
  5. Our appointments in Bali: during our meetings, we will discuss the current market, our working methods, the return on investment and especially your projects, your desires and your expectations. We will organise tours of some of our villas, land. You will share your feelings and your favourite choices. We will proceed to the creation of a bank account. Then we can work together remotely.
  6. If you prefer a VVIP Concierge service we can provide for additional costs, for more information click here.

As a general rule, our customers validate the entire purchase process during their trip to Bali. If despite the visits organised on the spot, you are undecided, you can perfectly give us a power of attorney so that we can, in a second time, acquire the land in your name.

Yes you can. Many of our clients appoint a power of attorney to sign the transfer of deed on their behalf. This is a simple process and can be done remotely. Even your friend or lawyer can be appointed as your power of attorney. It is without any risk, especially you buy one of our products where you can pay by progress.

When you stay in Bali, your passport will suffice. Ideally, the land in question will have to be paid before your departure from Bali, your presence being necessary for the signing of documents at the notary. If you are not on site and you want to reserve a particular land, we have the possibility, after a down payment, to take a stand on your land, waiting for your arrival in Bali.

Longitude Investments can develop the piece of land you already have it and build the villa you choose from our listing or create your dream villa on it.

You can open a bank account without any problem. Your presence is however required, but the steps are very fast. We will accompany you in this procedure because it is necessary to have a sponsor to open the account.

This is better because in case of purchase of a property, you will have to pay the various expenses related to your purchase (property tax, insurance, salaries of your staff if necessary, etc.). In case of renting, you will have to deposit the rent amount in an Indonesian bank account.

Is there a withdrawal period?

We guarantee our homes, against any major defect of construction, for one year. This guarantee does not cover cases of force major, bad weather, earthquake, floods, fortuitous event and other problems related to the natural degradations of the building. For your home insurance, we can direct you to our partners, such as Zurich Insurance, which insures the majority of our customers, against theft, fire, earthquake, flood, degradations related to volcanoes or any other natural event.

It is without any risk, especially you buy one of our products where you can pay by progress. We document any progress by photo and architect.

The operating costs are as follows and will depend of the type of villa: the annual property tax, the insurance of the property, if you wish to dispose of it, monthly staff costs, various expenses such as water, electricity, internet, cleaning products, small maintenance cost. From our experience, it will cost between 200€-500€ per month - wich is the rental revenue you can get for just a 1 to 3 night stay.

We can organise and marketing the resale of your property at our platform, a commission have to be paid. How long depend of the price of course, but if it is priced fairly, it will take from 3 to 6 month.

The amount of tax levied after the resale of real estate in Indonesia is 10% of the amount declared.
