Experience
Four years selling property in Bali, two in Phuket. Before Asia he worked with buyers in the UAE and Brazil, where both the clients and the law look nothing alike. Comparing markets taught him more than knowing any one of them in depth.
He came to Bali in 2022, the year everyone seemed to arrive at once. Since then he has watched the market go from "buy anything, it'll go up" to where it is now, when the numbers have to hold up.
How he runs the numbers
The model starts from inputs you can verify: consultancy and agency reports, official Indonesian statistics, developer price lists and nightly rates that guests actually pay.
A seller's promised return never goes into it. Every figure in our guides carries a source and a date, so you can tell what was measured from what was assumed.
What he's responsible for
The agency's analytics: the yield model, the area breakdowns and side-by-side comparisons of properties. Every listing in the catalog passes through that model before it goes live.
He also writes the guides on this site, from yield models to legal and tax explainers and area guides. On deals, he works with buyers from the first shortlist through the document check.
