The Bali Villa Buyer’s Playbook.

Eight sections. Four foreign-ownership pathways. The Bali fee stack the brochures skip. Built for foreign buyers underwriting a villa, with an Australian-buyer overlay.

What you get

  • The 4 foreign-ownership pathways — Hak Pakai, Leasehold (Hak Sewa), PT PMA, Nominee. What each one grants you and how it fails.
  • The 5-step Bali underwriting framework — funnels 500+ listings down to 1–2.
  • The Bali fee stack: gross to net — staff, banjar fees, PBB tax, utilities, OTA commission, refurb cycle.
  • The legal traps — Hak Pakai expiry, leasehold no-extension, nominee structure failures, off-plan abandonment patterns.
  • 3 live deal walkouts — Canggu, Pererenan off-plan, Sanur Hak Pakai. Two kills. One close.
  • The Australian-buyer overlay — FIRB, CGT cost-base, ATO reporting, AUD/IDR on a 25-year hold.

Country-Specific Tier · Self-Serve

The Vietnam Property Buyer’s Playbook.

What a foreigner actually holds, what it costs in, and what it costs to get capital back out. Built for foreign buyers underwriting a Vietnam apartment.

What you get

  • What a foreigner actually owns — the dwelling for a 50-year term (renewable once), inside approved projects, behind the 30% building quota. What that grants you and where it ends.
  • The pink book — the title document that proves the holding, and how to read it before you wire a deposit.
  • The VAT in-vs-on-top cost trap — the line that decides whether the brochure number is the price or the start of the price.
  • 3 live deal walkouts — Thu Thiem, Da Nang, Tay Ho. What killed each one.
  • The money-in / money-out capital-control overlay — how funds enter, how proceeds leave, and the paperwork that lets them.

Country-Specific Tier · Self-Serve

The Philippines Property Buyer’s Playbook.

Perpetual ownership of the unit, zero land, and the paperwork that proves it. Built for foreign buyers underwriting a Philippines condo.

What you get

  • What a foreigner actually owns — perpetual ownership of the condo unit (a CCT), with zero land, behind the 40% project cap. What that grants you and where it stops.
  • The new-vs-resale VAT swing — the line that moves the real cost depending on which side of the market you buy.
  • Title verification — the CCT, the developer’s DHSUD License to Sell, and the anti-dummy trap that voids a workaround structure.
  • 3 live deal walkouts — Bay Area, BGC, Cebu. What killed each one.
  • The BSP-registration money-out overlay — the registration step that governs whether proceeds can leave later.
