You've been looking at Bali. Something is stopping you.

Maybe it's the leasehold structure you don't fully understand. Maybe it's the yields that look great on paper but you're not sure what's real. Maybe you've read conflicting things online and don't know who to trust.

You're not confused because the market is bad. Bali is one of the highest-performing short-term rental markets on the planet.

You're stuck because the information out there is either too vague, too promotional, or written by someone trying to sell you something.

This webinar is none of that.

In 30 minutes you'll know exactly what most Bali buyers find out too late

Six things covered. No fluff. No pitch.

1

The real yield numbers, not the headline figure

You'll see 20% advertised everywhere. We'll show you what that actually becomes after management fees, platform costs, insurance and maintenance. The real net number still beats every traditional market by 3x. But you deserve to know what you're actually earning.

2

How leasehold works, and the one clause that catches buyers out

25 to 30 years with a 20-year extension sounds straightforward. But there is contract language that could mean you renew at triple the price in 25 years. We'll show you what to look for and what question to ask every developer before you sign anything.

3

The four due diligence checks that protect your investment

Land certificate, zoning approval, BPN registration, SLF occupancy certificate. Most buyers skip at least one. We'll walk through each one, including why a developer saying the PDG is "still in process" while construction has already started is a red flag that should end the conversation.

4

PT PMA: what the noise is about and what actually protects you

There is a lot circulating online right now about PT PMA structures and whether foreigners can own property in Bali. Some of it is true. None of it means what people think it means. We'll cut through it clearly: the path that creates risk, the path that works, and what questions to ask your legal advisor before you structure anything.

5

Why the Bali market is still compelling in 2026: honest context included

6.94 million international visitors in 2025. Year on year growth. Plus three major infrastructure projects now in motion: the ART tram from the airport to Canggu, the South Ring Road opening the Bukit Peninsula, and a water taxi service cutting the airport-to-Canggu journey from two hours to thirty minutes. We'll also address the Middle East flight disruption directly, and why it is a short-term aviation story, not a structural demand problem.

6

A live breakdown of a real investment, with actual numbers

Not a hypothetical. A real 5-star resort in Canggu. A $167,000 investment. 9% guaranteed net return, regardless of occupancy, after all management fees. 14% projected return at normal occupancy. Full monthly, annual, 5-year and 50-year figures shown. You'll leave knowing exactly what this looks like in your bank account.

This is for you if…

  • You've been looking at Bali property but haven't pulled the trigger yet
  • You want to understand the investment structure before you talk to a developer
  • You're based in Dubai, Australia, the UK or anywhere and want to invest remotely

Presenter

James C Reid has spent over 20 years investing in property and years as a Sales Director based between Dubai and Bali, working with global investors across multiple asset classes. When Bali kept surfacing in serious investment conversations, he went deep on the market, studying the corridors, the legal frameworks, and the real performance data from operating properties.

He now advises clients across two profiles: lifestyle investors who want a property they can use and earn from, and pure yield investors who never plan to visit the island. Both can win in Bali, but only with the right structure and the right information going in.

What makes this different is that James isn't here to sell you a project. He's here because the most common reason people miss good opportunities isn't lack of money or lack of interest. It's lack of clear, honest information. That's what this session is.

You might be thinking…

Is this just going to be a sales pitch for a specific project?
No. This webinar exists to educate, not to sell. There's no project pitch, no developer brochure, and no pressure to buy anything. If after the webinar you want to talk through a specific opportunity, that's what the consultation is for.
I've heard PT PMA structures can't own property in Bali anymore, is that true?
This is one of the most misunderstood topics circulating right now. The short answer is: it depends entirely on how the structure is set up. A PT PMA trying to self-manage a rental without the correct hospitality licence is where the risk sits. A PT PMA holding an asset while a properly licensed management company operates the rental is a compliant, legally sound structure. We cover both paths clearly in the webinar so you know exactly what to ask your legal advisor.
I don't know anything about Indonesian property law. Is this too advanced?
Not at all. This is built specifically for people who are new to the Bali market or have been looking but haven't bought yet. No background knowledge needed.
Can I watch a recording if I can't attend live?
A recording is not guaranteed. The Q&A session at the end is where most people get the specific answers they need, so we strongly recommend attending live.
I'm based outside of Bali. Can I buy remotely?
Yes. The entire purchase process can be completed remotely. This is covered in the webinar.
