Owning land in Bali would be one of the smartest and most valuable investments that you could do for your future self. Land value throughout the island has been growing exponentially since the 1970s and has never really stopped!

Additionally, a piece of land is pretty much low maintenance; you won’t need to pay utility bills, there are no mortgage payments or insurance and taxes would be minimal. After purchase, you can pretty much leave it alone and know that it would most likely remain in one piece.

Despite the current global situation and the pandemic, now would be one of the very best times to purchase land. It’s definitely a buyer’s market with landowners slashing down prices to meet current market conditions.

Here are some reasons as to why you should invest in a plot of land or two here in Bali.

1. Fantastic Passive Investment

With land, you don’t need to worry about upkeep or maintenance until the time comes for you to start development! You can safely use it as an investment vehicle for the future and you won’t have to worry about your land being stolen!

2. Returns Without Increasing Risks

The land that you purchase will not disappear or vanish as shares or stocks can. It is tangible and physical and it is all yours. Despite the global economic situation, land ownership will not change.

3. Land Is Limited

Remember when Seminyak and Canggu were mostly rice fields? That was only 10 years ago. With the growth of tourism and the expat and local community here in Bali, land will continue to be snapped up and developed as towns and communities expand. There’s no time like the present to get in on this growth.

4. Land Is Affordable

Land is inexpensive to own and over time it will grow in value. There are no mortgage payments or utility bills. There are no extra charges for security, maintenance, electricity or internet. No roof needs to be replaced. Once you purchase your plot of land, it can just quietly sit there until you decide what to do with it!

5. Guaranteed Income or Profit

Land is less costly to buy than developed real estate, just because there is nothing on it. Just make sure to do your due diligence and make sure that the piece of land is in a path of growth, something that could attract future developers. You could sell that property for multiple the amount that you bought it for, and enjoy guaranteed profit!

Now that you know all the great reasons to own yourself a piece of land here in Bali, why not start browsing? Remember that location should be your number priority. John Jacob Astor, a real estate mogul once said, “Buy and wait. Buy near a growing city. Buy when other people want to sell. Hold on to what you buy!”
