On the verge of signing on the dotted line for your dream Bali villa? Well, before you put pen to paper, there is just one more important matter to cross off your villa checklist and that is a thorough villa inspection. If you haven’t already, be sure to go in and conduct a thorough examination of the villa from top to bottom to identify potential problem areas. From the villa grounds to the main structure, appliances, fixtures, electricity, plumbing, and even the sewer system, there are elements that, if not addressed immediately, will bring you unwelcomed stress and take a toll on your time and your finances. Let’s take a look. 4 Things to Check in Villa Inspection 1. The Roof Bali is a tropical island and there are strong winds, gales, and heavy storms. Your roof is an integral part of your villa structure so be sure to check if it is strong, sturdy, and in good condition. To check for leaks or water seepage, see if there are any discoloration or wet spots on the ceiling and the paint. Next, check the structure that is holding up the roof. See if it is still strong and straight, or crooked and bent. Remember that there are different types of roofs used here for villas in Bali – most are tiles and shingles but there are also the traditional grass roofs called alang-alang. These types of roofs need to be replaced once every ten years or so and would need servicing at regular intervals.  If you have tiled roofs, ask the original owner for the type and size for future reference in case you need to replace any. 2. Electrical Panel, Pump Room & Plumbing You may not be an electrician but it’s important to take a look at the electrical panel to assess its condition before purchase. The wires within the electrical panel should be neatly organized, properly labeled, and in good condition. All circuit breakers should be up, and if they are not, find out why to prevent electric shock or an electrical fire. Also, do make sure that the voltage stabilizers are working to protect your AC, electrical appliances, and electrical pumps against voltage surges. Don’t forget to turn on all the lights in the villa to see if they’re working properly or are flickering. When checking the pump and the pump room, note that they should be dry, clean, and tidy and that the pumps aren’t rusty, too old, or making questionable sounds. In the bathrooms, check the water flow and see that the drains aren’t clogged, that the toilets are flushing properly and if you can, see that the pipes aren’t blocked or rusted. 3. Interior & Exterior Finishing The main thing to look out for is cracks in the walls or ceilings. If you find any, have a professional take a look at it to assess the extent of the damage. See if any major renovations need to take place to sustain the structure. Discoloration or peeling wall paint could indicate dampness within the walls itself, which is worrying as this can cause structures to fall apart over time. Damp walls can quickly lead to the growth of mold, which can negatively impact one’s health. To prevent this from happening, apply a waterproof coating on your walls and roof. While you’re at it, check for termite infestations, and see if your floor, windows and doors are level and are opening and closing properly. 4. Neighborhood & Access Take a good look at the neighborhood that your dream Bali villa is in. If you’re in a popular tourist area that’s already developed, then you wouldn’t have to worry about access roads, security, illegal dumping, or even an animal farm nearby. Your villa should be accessible by paved roads with a system already in place for water, electricity, and waste disposal. Drive around and see if you can spot anything that would affect your stay in your villa. Is there an open dumping site nearby? Or a nightclub? Are you downwind from a major road with noise from cars and bikes keeping you up at night? Can Foreigners Buy Villas In Bali? Another point to add to your list is property ownership in Indonesia. The question that is often asked is, can foreigners buy villas or land in Bali? There are different titles for both land and property in Bali and each title connotes a different meaning. Foreigners can ‘own’ property in Indonesia under a secondary title, “Right of Use”.  Villa Inspection With Bali Coconut Living Now you know what to look out for when it comes to Bali villa inspections, remember, you can always arrange for a Bali villa inspection with Bali Coconut Living at any time and for any villa in Bali that you may have your eye on.

Moving to Bali? Let’s take a look at the best places to live in Bali for expats. Bali is larger than most people think with multiple towns that come with their own distinct character and unique offerings. Here’s a little summary of each town to give you an idea of what to expect and why they are the best places to live in Bali for expats. Seminyak Bali’s most “cosmopolitan” and fashionable city comes with exciting surprises in the form of world-class shopping, dining, pampering and entertainment. There is something for everyone and for all ages to enjoy, which is why it is one of the best places to live in Bali for expats. Seminyak Beach is a hub of activity and is a popular destination at sunset with trendy beach clubs and restaurants offering delicious cocktails, amazing food and toe-tapping music. Let’s not forget “Eat Street” with its plethora of incredible dining options! When looking for a Bali villa for yearly rent, remember that Seminyak would include the neighboring towns of Petitenget and Umalas. Canggu Once a quiet town teeming with rice fields and surfers, Canggu is now Bali’s most vibrant and exciting seaside town, filled with beautiful cafes, restaurants, beach clubs, shopping, spas, and a thriving wellness scene. It all began in Berawa but these days, all neighborhoods like Batu Botong, Tanah Barak and Batu Mejan, Tanah Lot and Mengwi are also considered Canggu. Expats looking for fresh and friendly vibes, amazing views, great surfing and pleasing aesthetics would love staying here. Everything is at your fingertips – great food for all dietary requirements, flashy outlets, co-working spaces, fun group activities and cool places to hang out, with pretty spas, yoga studios, gyms and wonderful beach clubs to suit all preferences. Kuta Kuta is ideal for expats who are looking for a place with a touch of nostalgia. Here is where it all began, and today Kuta is a thriving town with so much to see and do. Some might find it slightly overwhelming but it has a unique electrifying energy that attracts. In addition to the seemingly unending number of hotels and resorts, restaurants, warungs, pubs and cafes here, Kuta retains its original charms which can easily be found in its many narrow streets and alleys where one could find establishments that have withstood the test of time. Most notably, Kuta is the ultimate sunset destination in South Bali, for the most spectacular blazing red, pink and purple skies every day at sundown. Denpasar The capital of Bali is the center of commerce and education and the seat of the Bali government. The city is no Seminyak or Canggu, but it offers a mix of urban conveniences and traditional Balinese culture, making it ideal for expats who want to be in the center of it all. Being in Denpasar means close access to all schools, offices, markets and government offices. There is great value to be found here with lower costs of living and plenty of local establishments to explore and discover. Denpasar is also close to Sanur with its beautiful beaches, shopping and great dining and Renon, with its gorgeous and expansive park that’s ideal for morning jogs and afternoon walks. Legian Legian is the “entertainment capital” of Bali with non-stop partying, music, shopping and great food and drinks. Kuta’s sister town is also home to beautiful beaches with soft golden sands and a relaxed vibe. The town is pedestrian-friendly, meaning that you could walk to explore and discover gorgeous hidden gems along the main streets and alleyways. You’ll find new, aesthetically pleasing cafes as well as traditional Balinese venues with the charms of yesteryear.

Retiring in Bali is the perfect way to spend your golden years. Nothing beats waking up in the world’s most beloved tropical paradise day after day, surrounded by beauty, luxury, great weather and the warmth of the Balinese people. Financially, retiring in Bali is a smart way to keep your money working for you. The cost of living is reasonable and affordable when compared to developed nations and other cities in the region. Of course, your budget and lifestyle also come into play but the bottom line is that a stronger foreign currency would go a long way here in Bali. So be prepared to enjoy great value on the cost of living; everything from accommodations to food, entertainment, transportation, and amenities. To give you an idea of the cost of living for retirees in Bali, we’d recommend that you regularly check the current dollar-to-rupiah exchange rate, which at the moment is USD 6 per IDR 100,000. Here’s a rough breakdown of the cost of living for retirees in Bali: Accommodation - Modern Apartment or Luxury Villa The price for a yearly villa rent in Bali can vary greatly depending on the location, inclusions and amenities. A Bali villa rent yearly in Seminyak, Canggu, Uluwatu, Ubud or Sanur can cost you anywhere from IDR 200 million or USD 13,000 to IDR 800 million or USD 53,000, fully furnished with a garden and a pool, with cleaning, maintenance, night security, water, rubbish collection, parking space, banjar fees and wifi all included. A thoughtfully-designed, fully-equipped apartment in all of the areas mentioned above would range between IDR 80 million or USD 5,000 to IDR 300 million or USD 20,000 a year, fully furnished and inclusive of cleaning, maintenance and upkeep, night security, water, rubbish collection, banjar fees, parking space and wifi. Begin the search for your Bali villa for rent yearly or apartment for monthly or long-term rent with Bali Coconut Living. Dining Food is delicious and affordable in Bali, for both local and international cuisines. Street food and local warungs (small eateries) offer meals for as little as USD $1 to USD $2 per dish. Prices would understandably be higher if you prefer to dine out at speciality restaurants, trendy cafes or at beach clubs. Expect to spend approximately USD $10 per dish or per cocktail in a well-established eatery or a five-star venue. Groceries Fresh local vegetables and fruits, meat, eggs, seafood and poultry are all available at standard market rates and are even cheaper at the local wet markets. For example, 1kg of garlic costs IDR 20,000 or approximately USD 1.30 and a whole chicken costs IDR 45,000 each or USD 3.00. There are air-conditioned supermarkets which offer fresh bakery and imported goods which would cost substantially more than local products here in Bali. Scooter & Car Rental You could easily rent a scooter or a car here in Bali & public transportation such as taxis, Grab and GoJek are relatively affordable. Hiring a driver would also be a smart way to get around while contributing to the local economy. Plus, you won’t have to worry about driving in Bali’s infamous traffic or finding parking! Staff One of the requirements for obtaining a Retirement Visa is to hire a local Balinese person to help you around your home. Expect to pay IDR 2,000,000 or USD $134 to IDR 2,500,000 or USD $160 per month per staff, which is a bargain considering everything that they’ll help you with from cleaning to groceries, feeding your pets, cooking and keeping you company. Retirement Visa All you need to retire in Bali is a Retirement Visa which would set you back approximately USD 800 or USD 12 million per year per applicant. Ready to retire in Bali?
