Freehold and leasehold villas in Bali

The difference

Freehold (Hak Milik) is ownership of the land. Leasehold (Hak Sewa) is a long right to use it, often 25 to 30 years with extension options. I Land Dream states which one a villa is, on that villa's page.

Freehold

Freehold is ownership of the land, under the title Hak Milik. When a sale is freehold, the listing says Freehold.

An international buyer usually holds freehold through a local company (PT PMA). Whether that path fits depends on the villa. Ask when you enquire.

Leasehold

Leasehold is a long right to use the land, under the title Hak Sewa. The term is often 25 to 30 years with extension options. When a sale is leasehold, the listing says Leasehold, and the years remaining when those years are known.

Most international buyers take leasehold in their own name. The years and the price are on the villa page. Ask on WhatsApp if you want those read with you.

How to choose

The right path depends on the villa. Start with the ownership line on the sale page. If you want freehold, or a leasehold of a certain length, say so when you enquire.
