3. Choosing the location

You select a plot based on your preferences or we offer suggestions. All plots are available via legal lease agreements and fully verified.

Living or investing in Bali as a foreigner – through a secure lease structure

Leasehold – exclusive usage, not ownership

Foreigners cannot legally own land or real estate in Indonesia. That’s why Santai Homes Bali offers a turnkey lease solution: you lease a completed home on a leased plot of land — with full and exclusive usage rights.

This means you do not own the building or the land, but you do obtain a long-term and secure right to use the home and land — including the right to live there, make adjustments, and possibly rent it out (if allowed in the lease).

🧩 What do you actually get?

A notarized lease agreement covering both the home and the land
Exclusive usage rights (25 years + 25-year extension option)
The ability to use the home privately, or rent it out (depending on the agreement)
Clear contractual terms around renewal, termination, and permitted use

Leasehold means: no ownership — but secure and long-term usage of a fully developed home.

📌 Why no ownership?

If we were to transfer ownership of the building:

You would need to act as the legal building owner
Local regulations would apply (including foreign ownership restrictions)
You’d face complex tax and permit obligations

By keeping both land and home under lease:

We avoid legal complexity
We ensure compliance with Indonesian law
You receive a worry-free, ready-to-use lease solution

🔍 Legal framework

All lease contracts are:

Prepared and notarized in Bahasa and English
Include extension options, usage terms, and termination clauses
May be registered with the land office (BPN) if applicable
Reviewed by trusted legal partners

💬 Common questions

Am I legally protected?
Yes. Your lease agreement grants you full usage rights during the agreed term, with built-in options for renewal.

Can I rent out the home?
Possibly — this depends on zoning, permits, and the lease contract. We’ll advise you during the consultation.

Can I sell the house?
You cannot sell the building as your property, but you can transfer the remaining lease term to a new party (with approval).
