Due Diligence for a Villa Sublease Transfer

The Challenge: An overseas investor was in the process of acquiring a sublease for a villa in Nusa Lembongan. They engaged us to ensure the transaction was secure. Our due diligence process quickly identified several red flags, including missing documents required for the legal transfer of the lease and notable tax irregularities.

Our Solution: Ponder Indonesia’s team immediately worked to secure the required legal documents from the relevant parties and government bodies. Concurrently, our tax advisors designed a strategy to rectify the tax issues, ensuring full regulatory compliance for our client moving forward.

The Result: The transfer of the property right was completed securely and in full compliance with Indonesian law, protecting our client's asset and mitigating future risks.

Key Lesson for Investors: Maintain all your records. Indonesian Notaries are not private lawyers and do not act for you.

Doing the right thing,
at the right time.
