Real Estate

Overview

We offer a full range of services in the real property arena, including assisting with purchase and sale agreements, leasing agreements, title searches and registrations, conveyancing, and real property dispositions and bequests. We also provide effective and reliable advice on the complex rules governing property ownership by non-nationals in Indonesia, an area of the law that appears set for liberalisation in the near future. We regularly handle land-acquisition matters for clients involved in the development of power plants, expressways, coal ports and tourism resorts, to name but a few. In addition, we have a long list of general advisory and retainer clients whom we advise on real estate issues, and regularly appear as counsel for clients in high profile property-sector litigation. 

Recent notable mandates include representing an investment bank’s subsidiary in the acquisition of a 5,000 m2 development site in one of Jakarta’s busiest commercial districts, advising a Singapore-based online real-estate broker on the establishment of its Indonesian subsidiary and subsequent purchase of leading Indonesian real-estate portal, and representing a subsidiary of a Malaysian state energy firm in a land acquisition project in East Java. 

We are currently assisting a consortium of foreign investors with a proposed major land acquisition in Bali for the development of an integrated tourist resort, and a Singapore-based manufacturing company with the purchase of a 3,000 m2 industrial site on the outskirts of Jakarta.
