Owning land in Bali’s popular and prime neighbourhood Canggu comes with its own prestige. Canggu is South Bali’s most sought-after location with huge potential for growth. Only a fraction of this seaside town is developed and there are still unlimited possibilities for new and exciting projects and developments to come.   Before the pandemic hit, land prices in Bali and especially Canggu were at an all-time high due to high demand from both locals and foreign investors. The word is out that Canggu is a trendy and fashionable utopia, an exciting new market for a whole new category of travellers looking for something fresh and exciting, but still distinctly tropical.   This demand will continue after the pandemic dies down. Even now, with the borders closed and interests concentrated on the local market, there is still significant demand for land in Canggu.   So if you’re looking to buy land in Canggu, now is the time. Prices are lower, there is less competition, plus owning land is the safest investment there is. Here are two of our most popular pieces of land in the most highly sought-after locations in Canggu for your consideration. Land For Sale – 250 sqm in Berawa, Canggu This lush plot of land is located right next to a productive rice field and would make the ideal spot for a house, a villa or a restaurant. There’s a paved road for easy access. Priced at IDR 3,750,000,000, the land has a freehold status and is only minutes away from Berawa Beach. Land For Sale – 1000 sqm in Berawa, Canggu This huge plot of land is currently a banana plantation but would be perfect for a villa or a small hotel or guesthouse. Total price is IDR 15,375,000,000 or IDR 1,537,500,000 per sqm.

There are two ways to invest in a property in Bali. You can either buy a freehold villa or buy freehold land in Bali. The former is usually for the more aggressive investors who would risk the initial capital cost in order to generate cash over time. The latter is usually for the more conservative investors who would rather preserve their wealth.   Land, especially beachfront land in the Berawa area, is highly likely to see a rise in value. Such land can be a safe haven with low tax that may be sold later for a higher price, which can potentially beat inflation and has better returns compared to most bank interest rates. The price of land could see a steady increase compared to gold, and it is potentially liquid as future developers prefer to build on empty land — not to mention how competitive the property market will be over the next decade.   Beachfront land for sale in Canggu at Padang Linjong   Here we present a 5 Are (500 square meters) parcel near the beach that is already valued at IDR 8,000,000,000 total price. A villa that is constructed on this land will likely be valued at at least IDR 14 billion. A single villa complex constructed on 5 Are, assuming that we would use 300 square meters for the building, will be able to accommodate at least 3 guests.   Currently, a brick road leads to the quiet and serene area, where an apartment building has already stood. It would also be very profitable to a future developer to build a cafe or another place of entertainment so that residents don’t need to venture too far for entertainment and basic needs.   16 Are land for sale in Canggu   A few hundred meters from Pantai Munduk Catu, a wide-open field among villas and private houses is ready for sale, currently valued at IDR 8,750,000,000 per 5 Are. You could choose to acquire a minimum of 5 Are or the full 16 Are at a great price of IDR 25,6 billion.   For comparison, Villa Gloria with a 14 Are total land size can fetch up to IDR 30.8 billion. You could expect at least an addition of IDR 10 billion from a land investment with 16 Are, provided that the developer is willing to compete with hotels, villas, and high-end establishments in the future.   Browse Bali Coconut Living for more properties to choose from.   This article is by no means a financial advice and estimated returns are speculative.

Buying land for sale in Bali in a developing area is one of the best property investment strategies. You’ll be open to opportunities, with no maintenance cost and high resale value. When you travel across Canggu and Umalas, you may notice that there are many empty plots. Some small paddy patches have been sold and converted from farming land into ordinary land for building, as farmers move to buy cheaper land and build their business elsewhere in Bali. If someone were to see this and think that Canggu and Umalas aren’t desirable places to be, they’d be wrong.    In recent years, Canggu and Umalas have grown in popularity and landowners know this; the prices of land have increased steadily ever since. If you love the game of Monopoly, and you’re also a property investor, then you’ll know that this is the right opportunity to get yourself some land.   Buying land for sale in Bali in a developing area is one of the best property investment strategies. You may not know exactly what the land will be used for —to build restaurants, villas, hotels, or cafes. All you have is land that requires little to no maintenance costs, a strong potential for development, and very high resale value.   Land for sale in Umalas (2.4 are)   It is easy to look beyond the overgrowth and see the potential of this land five years from now. Take a look at this land’s exact location and surroundings. It lies in a small neighborhood, with access through a narrow driveway that was already prepared for housing developments. The area is also relatively developed, with a few houses already occupying the neighboring lands, and connected to the electric grid.   The main road connected to this brick driveway is Jl. Bumbak, and in the immediate surroundings you can find so many accommodating shops and eateries — Red Spatula Coffee and Roastery, and Go Bike & Car Rentals to name a few. It’s safe to say that this land is perfect for a collection of guesthouses or even a hotel, but keep your options open. To the south, Jl. Pantai Berawa invites visitors to join the crowd at the beach.   Land for sale in Canggu (4.09 are)   When it comes to land for sale in Canggu, huge deals are waiting at every corner. A great example is this 4.09 Are land. With twice the area, you may think that the cost could be twice that in Umalas. This land may be huge, but it comes with a great bargain, as the cost to double the land size is marginal. The best part is, the land is very close to Jl. Pantai Berawa, which means excellent access to the ever-popular Canggu beach.   Unlike the first featured land, this land opens up even more potential. Right at the roadside, but not completely tucked away, there is potential for this land for villas, shops, or small restaurants. There is space to spare for parking, making this spot so desirable to many other buyers, should you wish to resell the land.   Unlock the hidden potential of land   Bali Coconut Living can give helpful advice on what you should do with your land. We are not just a property agency, but a consultant that also acts as a villa managing service. If you are interested in the above propositions and you’d like to meet with one of our agents, feel free to visit us on Jl. Bumbak or give us a call.

Before buying land for sale in Bali, you should consider conducting a land survey. This will protect you from land disputes and uncover any easement.   Purchasing an entire lot of empty land allows you to control construction from various aspects, from the costs to design and functionality. As towns such as Canggu grow fast, you can find many plots of land for sale, initially owned by farmers, sold at an affordable price.   However, it is necessary to conduct a land survey first. It’s particularly important if you purchase land that was once used for agriculture or forestry in the countryside or suburbs. This short guide was intended to give you some basic information of what land surveying is, why it is done and who should do so and when.   What is a land survey?   Essentially, a land survey is the act of determining the exact lines of a property. It is done in order to know the boundaries of ownership. Since land ownership disputes can be a hassle to solve in the courtroom, many buyers prefer to pay a small fee to do land surveys in order to strengthen their claim.   You may find that some people on the Internet would claim that land surveys aren’t necessary, since the legitimate land owner would have the document of ownership (Sertifikat Hak Milik or SHM) with the exact measures of the plot drawn within it.   While this is true in areas where property lines are easily defined, such as in town centers and housing zones, the lines are literally and figuratively blurred when it comes to land that was never improved, other than for farming.   What are the benefits of doing land surveys?   By defining your domain, you are avoiding land disputes. Land disputes are unsurprisingly common in rural Indonesia, particularly in cultures with strong family land heritage such as Bali.   It must be noted that Indonesia as an organized and united country is only a few generations old. Families that have owned the land for generations found themselves at odds with the more modern land ownership regulations.   Therefore, it’s not surprising if a landowner in the rural area does not have a land certificate or the most updated land certificate. Doing land surveys before purchasing the property helps not only you, but also future owners and neighborhoods to recognize and respect the property boundaries.   Another more general reason is to recognize easements within your property, to avoid any surprise insurance charge.     Who can conduct land surveys?   A licensed professional surveyor can conduct land surveys, and who would work closely with a notary to update the land certificate. While we do not provide land surveying services, we are more than happy to connect you with our trusted land survey partner.   Bali Coconut Living is a property agent and villa management service.
