How can a foreigner buy a villa in Umalas?

You can buy leasehold directly or hold freehold through your own PT PMA company (HGB title, 30+20+30 years). Hak Milik remains limited to Indonesian citizens.

Before paying a deposit, check the RDTR zoning, certificate, legal access, and water supply. With a new build, also review the PBG permit and the payment schedule in the contract.

Have an independent PPAT notary and lawyer review the deal before you sign. Current options are in the villa catalog.
