## FAQ
### Can Australians buy property in Bali?
Yes, through a leasehold. Foreigners, including Australians, cannot own land in Indonesia directly. Your plot is leased for 80 years through a company — a secure, legally recognised structure that we set up entirely for you.

### How far is Bali from Australia?
Bali is a short direct flight from home: around 2.5 hours from Darwin, around 3.5 hours from Perth and around 6 hours from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane. That makes it easy to visit your villa for holidays or long stays.

### Do you work with investors from Australia?
Yes. All conversations are in English. The first call takes about 30 minutes, is free and without obligation, and we arrange a time that suits you in Australia.

### Does buying land or a house grant me an Indonesian visa?
Owning property alone does not automatically grant residency. There are, however, various visa options for investors, long-stay residents and KITAS holders that we review together with our partners on the ground.

### How does land ownership work?
Foreigners cannot own land directly in Indonesia. The plot is leased for 80 years through a company — a secure, legally recognised structure that we set up entirely for you.

### Can I pay for land and house in instalments?
Yes. We offer instalment plans for both land and construction, giving you financial flexibility. We agree the exact terms with you individually.

### How are taxes on rental income handled?
Rental income is subject to Indonesian tax law. We recommend consulting a tax professional; our team supports you with structuring and reporting. If you are an Australian tax resident, your foreign rental income generally also has to be declared in Australia.

### How do I receive my rental income?
Payouts go via your preferred channel — international wire transfer, local structures or other agreed methods. We make the process smooth and transparent.

### What happens to the villa when I'm not there?
On request we take over full management: rentals to vetted guests, cleaning, maintenance and reporting. You can use the villa yourself anytime — we simply block those dates from rental.
