I totally agree. It's wise to have an investment, especially a property that's far enough from your country of origin or from your present country residence, especially if you travel a lot.
Maybe I'm just weird but I find these kind of vlogs way more interesting and entertaining where you see more about Jon's crazy projects and his work. For me it puts more perspective and authenticity into these videos than just watching jetskis, and helicopters and surf all the time. Don't get me wrong, they are awesome, too, but to have insights into his worklife gives me an opportunity to learn for myself, whereas these sole "fun" vlogs are just entertaining. Congrats on the deal Jon!
Hi Jun! I'm an Indonesian and YES I love my country. Been following your blog for a while, so now I'm happy to hear that you love her too and plan to invest here. I know Lombok and the beauty and the ugly of it... I agree that it has big potential, however the growth doesn't seem to be so much straight forward... Again, it doesn't always mean bad. Anyway, I hope you will have your dream house/property in Lombok... Only...... I really hope that you'd rethink the idea of using jet skis there... consider the nuisance it will create to that natural beauty. No no you don't need jet skis, traditional boat or simple motor boat would serve you well. we have a phrase here "kearifan lokal" which is a knowledge found by local tribes through experiences in trying to cope or adapt, and to integrate the understanding of the the existing culture and the natural condition of the place.
You just ROCK big time my friend !! How many people on earth would share this, plus you are such a genuine and down to earth person. I can not think of any better dude on TH-cam than you are right now. Go for it buddy, and who knows...maybe we will be neighbors!!!!! High five dude 🤘💪👍
Make sure You contact Lawyers first!!! Oversea residents are not allowed to own a property in Bali. You need to find a local resident and the citizen of Indonesia who a house or a villa going to be registered on. Apart from that sign an agreement with them to make sure You are not pissed off afterwards and do not lose the money and the property. Good luck!
You can read about this on their site at tampahhills.com/investment/ "HGB (Hak Guna Bangunan) is an endorsed legal and transparent way for foreign citizens to invest in land in Indonesia, albeit only when they intend to build within a set timeframe. HGB titles are registered by the government and can be held either in an Indonesian citizen’s name or by an Indonesian legal entity. [...]" Read the rest on that page
Gustav yes... Indonesian always make it easier when people from outside of Indonesia want to invest their money here, what those investors need to do is research research and make decision.
Buy the lot as high as possible, Jon. Because...Indonesia lies exactly on one of the craters of the earth. So, Earthquakes are very common as same as Japan. Still people haven't recovered from 2004 worst devastating Tsunami, higher is the better. So, your property will not be damaged, if there is any natural disaster👍🏻
awesome vlog! I really loved how you shared that info! it's nothing that we usually get to see or experiene first hand so it's great to see how everything works ! and the fact that you just deliver it that way without the slightest touch of arrogance but pure joy makes it so much better and both of you so relatable ! awesome job! btw, get Benny a house there!
Putting in the hours really does pay off you're living the dream brother. Looking forward to seeing what lies ahead for the future and I'm sure the best has yet to come for you and the ones around you. Congrats on another achievement.
Jon! To Get a full potential of the view! Build a house like a half circle or a circle for the sake of it. You shouldn't be waist that beautiful view on facing the house one way! The location is super pretty. 😊
I draw so many Parallels from your life and videos. Thank you for all the content, you and all of your network is a true inspiration!! Yasssss!!! Keep up the good WORK!! 🤙
Guys... it's Lombok. Just a mere 15 min flight (2h speed boat ride) to Bali. Denpasar on Bali has one of the best hospitals, runned by foreign doctors in south east Asia, so don't worry about that. I also fell in love with south Lombok and started looking for a homestay for sale, but life is also serious with us sometimes so it will have to wait. But a nice Belgian guy showed me the way and hopefully one day.. for about 10 time less then Jon i will own something there.
Wow! That looks like an amazing lot and an amazing place to live. Can't wait to see the entire process of you building that house. It's going to be paradise!
This is the kind of investment which you pretty much can't go wrong with. Either a) land skyrockets and they make 10 times the money back in 15 years, or b) prices remain the same, but because prices are the same the land around them isn't exploited and they'll be living in paradise. In other words, the worst thing that can happen is that the land around you is purchased and you make 10x the money you sunk into it.
Pleeaasse, make an environmentally friendly paradise out there in Tampa Hills. You seem to be a builder Jon, in many ways; not afraid of creativity and challenges, show everyone how it should be done! Renewable energies, local materials and know-hows... Sobriety in luxury, that's the real overkillness!
Overall he's had over 182,700,000 views but that's in a nearly 10 year period. I'm abit confused how 800,000+ subs but only less than 200,000 views a month =/
Congratulations Jon!! i built my first house from scratch when i was 24yrs old. its a massive step to take and of course many doubts arise but you will not regret it im sure. the location you found is amazing and will surely appreciate in value. Very smart investment. The road ahead will certainly be full of challenges, but remember to take a step back and acknowledge your accomplishments.
I love the area but I was wondering: Would I really want to fly that long (around 17 hours from London) every time I want to enjoy my beach house? How politically and socially stable is it? Maybe one day there will be locals at your door chasing you out of your home like in Corsica or they impose a very high tax. Anyhow, I wish that everything will go well and Jon will be able to enjoy this house with his family and friends!
inchskater yes that's the main thing that would prevent me from.invedting there if I had the money. I would rather be closer to home, ie stay within max 3 hours flyin time
Land is cheap there for a reason... The islands of Lombok and Sumbawa lie in the central portion of the Sunda Arc. The Sunda Arc is home to some of the world's most dangerous and explosive volcanoes. The eruption of nearby Mount Tambora on Sumbawa is known for the most violent eruption in recorded history.
indeed. but look at the Bali there is one of active volcano Gunung Agung which would erupt anytime and destroy everything, but the foreign and domestic investment no worry about it.
once again you made a VERY INSPIRING vlog! well done mate! I can feel the passion seeing you chasing your dreams. What better way to live your life by exploring it to its full extend? True that it's every man's dream to build something he really loves, and I think this is a very smart way to spend/invest your fortune compared to just throwing it in some intangible financial tools and just watch the numbers change.
Man, everytime I come here I get motivated... And I will be this time as well after watching! Oh and Jon, you could make a little dream of myself become true with checking some of my Car Renders! :)
You only live once aye?🤔...Well im sure that your life is going to be so great and you made so many ppl happy with your vlogs that god will give you a second life for making sad ppl happy again. You made my day again with this video
Looked into buying something in Bali once, problem is you are not the owner. You need a local to "Own" your property so you can use it. You definitely need the people you trust and also how stable is the government / law enforcement on Bali?
just a thought ..as little as you go to Lombok...why not just rent or lease one of those fabulous villas you stay in and let some one else do the repairs and you will have a staff already built in to the rental..nice and easy visit to your favorite place.
+kennedy sumarno: i was about to read your comment earlier to my question how you do think about these kind of investions, but I guess the original post has been deleted, so I just read your feedback in the notification: just the part "that you live in a big city and not in lombok" was shown:/ so if you have the patience to comment again, I'd love to have the chance to read your comment completely. thank you!!
Foodie Moments i think people in lombok would be happy by what jon is doing. It brings better economy and development. Why should they sad anyway? Bali was like Lombok now, and when you live in paradise, you wont really give a damn of some mountains turned into some villas.
You should go here more often! Also tell benni to keep up the good work. Jon you make me smile every time you upload. P.S. buy a house right there in Indonesia and grow some fruit
Jon: it's really difficult to pull the trigger on this investment Also Jon: Yeah I'll buy a G 4X4 which is a depreciating asset for the same price no problem
He bought a Rolls while ago and its one of the biggest depreciating cars, guess what, he said he wanted to sell took him if 2 days to sell and probably profit on it.
Love love looooove the positivity, travel and the art that is your filming and editing! :) Such a treat to watch, all for free! :) Your guys are an inspiration to work hard and get to live a life like this :) Been to Bali, but next time it'll be Lombok :) And great chemistry guys.. it shows that you have fun together!
congrats on the deal! I just hope Lombok doesn't end up like Phuket, lots of half finished ruins and luxury stuff build on a budget / non-professionals, which makes everything look degraded after a short while and causes high maintenance costs.
Hi Jon, I'm very impressed and amazed with your trip to Bali and Lombok, is one trip my gf and I wanted to do until my princess came to this world. For sure I will do it, not just with my gf but with my daughter, when she will be at least 16 so she can remember how nice is that place. Keep going with the vlogs, are very inspired.
and now you just told Million People where to find a great quite surf spot in Lombock & where to find you in a few month. I hope you don't get in trubble like in Marbella
If the cost is 5 or 10 times lower respect marbella is because there is malaria and dengue fever, and no services like good hospitals. I think that if you unfortunately try dengue fever you'll never come back there. I'm sorry to tell you these things and go against your enthusiasm but just because you are very nice person I wanted to tell you.Ciao!
Spend about 2 months on Lombok last winter. Went to one of their newer hospitals 2 times. Friend broke a leg and i´ve got a condition. The hospital was insane. No waiting time. Probobly quite expensive but my insurance paid for me. I would say its better than most hospitals in the west.
1. Do they have reliable water & electricity service there? 2. What about the risk of a tsunami? 3. Are foreigners allowed to own land there? 4. Is there any infrastructure? Who will build and maintain the roads to get there? Is the local government efficient or corrupt? 5. Are there many stores, restaurants, hospital or other services nearby? If not, how hard is it to live there? 6. Will all the building supplies need to be imported? Is this much more difficult or expensive to do? Are there extra government taxes on this? 7. How difficult and expensive is it to get to Bali? Is there a ferry service or only by airplane? 8. Is Indonesia a stable place to invest? 9. How long will you keep the house? Will you sell it within a year like your cars, or do you plan to keep it for the long term? 10. If you have kids within a few years, will it be safe to bring a baby there or is it too remote? You can buy a similar place in some parts of the USA for half the price, though you have to watch out for hurricanes, so don't just compare it to the most expensive places like Monaco and Marbella. Also, there's no cheap easyJet to get there, so it will cost a lot more for you and your friends to go there. Do you really want to spend so many hours on the airplane to get there? Sometimes some deals are cheap because they are really bad deals. Sometimes it's better to buy land and wait for the area to develop first, so you're not the first builder to have all the headaches. Also, check to see if any big hotels are planned for nearby! Good luck!
Callie Masters this looks like a far more detailed approach than Jons simplistic " hey, nice sea view, great surf, think i can trust these 2 guys who have built here.....i'm in approach"😆....perhaps he has taken full legal advice etc...
I think Mandalika project nearby by Indo government that convinces Jon to invest there. The Mandalika will be a gated 5 stars resort area with 1250 hectares in size (Paramount, Club med, Pullman, Marriot, Grand Hyatt etc) are having their 5 starts resort underconstruction already. It will be completed with MotoGP circuit and MICE facilities, yacht marina, hospitals, eco cultural parks, etc. Road, port, and power plant, also dams and other basic infras are underconstruction heavily in Lombok. Some are completed already.
ouiiiii ~~~uh no! ..not sure 'bout this adventure..in theory sounds good..hope toasting coconuts is not an 'official' commitment. I do know that folks that 'live on island time' have a way different way of doing life..laid back ..so be prepared for this to take a verrrry long time. I am wondering ..what do you do for electric..and fresh water..and sewer for that matter. I do hope it all goes according to your dream..and I am sure Janni's dad will be there in a 'professional' capacity of knowledge of building a home..I wish you the best..I also wondered..do you tress pass on those 'farms' below. to get to the beach...did not see any roads. Some of the comments are speaking of true 'ownership'..so, seems like more 'research'..its a learning curve for sure. I have only done it once..building from ground up..and things took longer and more expensive. than you think...just so ya know..again..good luck.
hi Jon I m Indonesian citizen, just info for you no foreigner can buy any piece of land in Indonesia, if you interested for investment in Indonesia better go directly to government,hope you luck. sorry for my broken English
as I say no foreigner can buy any piece of land in Indonesia but they can invest in Indonesia, or marrying Indonesian maybe that one solution but that's also u got a deal with Indonesia immigration because they will track u down
You won many Jon, TH-cam is a great platform that will be your tool to show your business to the world, everything is always good in tourism investment and Lombok is a great choice because it is near from number one on the list of Travels' choice world destination in 2017 via Trip Advisor, which is Bali, and also near to another paradise that is Sumba island, and Lombok is in the middle of those Paradise. Well... looking forward to seeing the progress bro. Keep it up.
In indonesia/malay langguage : Banana : pisang Papaya : betik Coconut : kelapa Mango : mangga lol I'm so happy when I see you guys learning to speak the language 😂😂
I'm a local... What i'm used to know is that foreigner only have permission to used the land, not permission to own it. Good luck with that. Without local and also someshit to do. You can't owned anything in there. CMIIW.
Adrianus Tirta Sort of like where I'm from in Vancouver BC. Majority of land owners are not even from here and buy everything. Makes it out of price for people who live and work here. Look out Indonesia there's gonna be an invasion of foreign buyers!
yup, he can only lease the land,usually for 20 years i think,(and u can extend it with government approval) or u can get the local to buy it for you, so its not on your name.
tomp rocks So I wonder why he says he is buying it and not the other information that you know of? Wish they would have done that here. No one can afford to buy anything here unless they are rich rich rich.

Investing in that paradise is probably one of the wisest decisions you've ever made. A dream coming true for you, congratulations!
Creative North I'm pretty sure Janni would be delighted
Creative North That's true
I totally agree. It's wise to have an investment, especially a property that's far enough from your country of origin or from your present country residence, especially if you travel a lot.
I'm excited to see the house Jon is planning to build there!

YESSSSS
HAHAHAHA!

Stoked to see the outcome of this next investment. Glad you pulled the trigger on this :) Very cool!

everytime i am wachting a vlog of you guys i feel happy and forget all my problems, happy to have such creators as you two!
Thats like the sickest move i have ever seen, in a good way! Soo sick congratulation! Hope to learn surfing ones with you

So when is John finally going to hit the 1 mill? It's insane how these vlogs are so amazing but the chanel gowth is comparibly small.
true
Len who is john
Len from 1.000.000 it will skyrocket I think
Overall he's had over 182,700,000 views but that's in a nearly 10 year period. I'm abit confused how 800,000+ subs but only less than 200,000 views a month =/
It's because he didn't daily upload until like last year. That number is factoring in views between intermittent uploads over the previous decade
Congratulations Jon!! i built my first house from scratch when i was 24yrs old. its a massive step to take and of course many doubts arise but you will not regret it im sure. the location you found is amazing and will surely appreciate in value. Very smart investment. The road ahead will certainly be full of challenges, but remember to take a step back and acknowledge your accomplishments.

Anyhow, I wish that everything will go well and Jon will be able to enjoy this house with his family and friends!
inchskater yes that's the main thing that would prevent me from.invedting there if I had the money. I would rather be closer to home, ie stay within max 3 hours flyin time
Congratulations John you got big balls to buy a place out there and can't wait to see you build it !!!!! Good luck man !!!!
Beni has to be the best editor in the world surely...
Ry connew yeah for this type of filming(vlogs), maybe not other types like eg films and documentaries
Jon du är verkligen min förebild, du gör bara saker du tycker om. Jag har sån enorm respekt för dig Jon. Fortsätt vara du

the land is cheap for you guys. for locals they are sky high. 1 dollar = around 13.500 rupiah. sedih gue sebagai orang sini.
indeed. but look at the Bali there is one of active volcano Gunung Agung which would erupt anytime and destroy everything, but the foreign and domestic investment no worry about it.
once again you made a VERY INSPIRING vlog! well done mate! I can feel the passion seeing you chasing your dreams. What better way to live your life by exploring it to its full extend?

A specific one for Team Overkill is already planned ;)
Evotech 5 o
Hmm?
Wooooow! Yes! I can imagine that this will be a epic vlog making that house for the team overkill! Congrats Jon! 👍🏼
Congratulations!! Going to be epic
Congratulations Jon ! I'm a fan from Indonesia, so welcome to our paradise
Jon if you need a person to overlook the Team Overkill Indonesian office I can move tomorrow XD
Really happy for you, Jon! Giving us so much positive energy lately
You only live once aye?🤔...Well im sure that your life is going to be so great and you made so many ppl happy with your vlogs that god will give you a second life for making sad ppl happy again. You made my day again with this video
Congratulations Jon! Been to Lombok and I am 100% sure you made the right decision.
You should do this but your're saying ooh it's quiet but if you start building houses it will be bali 2.0
This powerful positive vibe of yours, will build an amazing place! Good luck!
Looked into buying something in Bali once, problem is you are not the owner. You need a local to "Own" your property so you can use it. You definitely need the people you trust and also how stable is the government / law enforcement on Bali?
just a thought ..as little as you go to Lombok...why not just rent or lease one of those fabulous villas you stay in and let some one else do the repairs and you will have a staff already built in to the rental..nice and easy visit to your favorite place.
Benji's editing is so good he could turn Schindler's List into a comedy
YESSSSSSS
1 fresher boi Schindler's list is actually one of the few films that i like even if they are not a comedies
HAHAHAHA DAMN!
I actually had an erection watching Schindler's List. Jk
Extravagant BOI
Super awesome!! 😁🙌 congratulations on your purchase in paradise 🌴🌴🏄🌅🍍👌
Be careful with the local laws Jon!
The next time he breaks his back, he'll wish he wasn't so far away from home.
Callie Masters well lombok is an island, it has cities too. Part you see in the vlog is the rural area
+kennedy sumarno: i was about to read your comment earlier to my question how you do think about these kind of investions, but I guess the original post has been deleted, so I just read your feedback in the notification: just the part "that you live in a big city and not in lombok" was shown:/
so if you have the patience to comment again, I'd love to have the chance to read your comment completely. thank you!!
Foodie Moments i think people in lombok would be happy by what jon is doing. It brings better economy and development. Why should they sad anyway? Bali was like Lombok now, and when you live in paradise, you wont really give a damn of some mountains turned into some
villas.
indonesia goverment open for foreigner investment if no buyers no income.
Im indonesian and I've been following your vlog since marcus join the vlog, glad to know your new office villa would be here. Terima kasih
I would like to hear what Richard thinks about that investment!!!
DubaTV me 2 :)
Join bussines my company
You should go here more often! Also tell benni to keep up the good work. Jon you make me smile every time you upload. P.S. buy a house right there in Indonesia and grow some fruit
Jon: it's really difficult to pull the trigger on this investment
Also Jon: Yeah I'll buy a G 4X4 which is a depreciating asset for the same price no problem
I think he's in between "smart businessment / investors" and "crazy vlog guy enjoy the life"
He bought a Rolls while ago and its one of the biggest depreciating cars, guess what, he said he wanted to sell took him if 2 days to sell and probably profit on it.
The flags of Monaco and Indonesia are the same! Interesting coincidence! Congratulations, Jon! You deserve it!
A banana tree doesn't give out fruit twice.
You need to cut down the whole tree so a new tree will produce a new fruit.
Bananas leaves are still valuable to the locals. Don't need to cut it off.
Die Qualität der Vlogs ist echt der Hammer / The quality of the Vlogs is really awesome! =)
"Zipline to the water." OVERKILL exemplified! 👍👍👍
Every Vlog is just Amazing!
Man this comment section is so positive. Yesssssss!
How exciting! Congrats Jon!!
I don't watch vlogs, but when I do, I watch Jon Olsson.
Love love looooove the positivity, travel and the art that is your filming and editing! :) Such a treat to watch, all for free! :) Your guys are an inspiration to work hard and get to live a life like this :) Been to Bali, but next time it'll be Lombok :) And great chemistry guys.. it shows that you have fun together!
Hellooo from a fellow Swedish travel vlogger!!
Fan asså fattar inte hur jag inte har tryckt mig in på din kanal förs nu! I'M HOOKED! Sweden represent!
congratulations looks so epic place, cant wait to see when its done.investing to that is good thing.
Omg...it s a paradise
congrats on the deal! I just hope Lombok doesn't end up like Phuket, lots of half finished ruins and luxury stuff build on a budget / non-professionals, which makes everything look degraded after a short while and causes high maintenance costs.
YES
Hi Jon, I'm very impressed and amazed with your trip to Bali and Lombok, is one trip my gf and I wanted to do until my princess came to this world. For sure I will do it, not just with my gf but with my daughter, when she will be at least 16 so she can remember how nice is that place. Keep going with the vlogs, are very inspired.
Some crazy intros! Keep up the good work Benji
Good luck with this project. Looks amazing and I've already booked my trip there. Casa team overkill Indonesia will be amazing.
Curious to see what comes out of this... It's quite the risk though. I wouldn't trust one guy or two.. I hope this works out well
Going back and looking at this,... you have incredible vision to see this,............... two years ago. Wow! Thinking of buying a lot.
and now you just told Million People where to find a great quite surf spot in Lombock & where to find you in a few month. I hope you don't get in trubble like in Marbella
That is amazing, congratulations! Must be so exciting, building your own house on Lombok. 🤗
Can someone do a website which lists all the things that Jon thinks that "Life is about"?
It all started with MegaChina and went downhill from there!!
Congrats Jon, incredible spot! There's a nice little left around them parts. ;)
If the cost is 5 or 10 times lower respect marbella is because there is malaria and dengue fever, and no services like good hospitals. I think that if you unfortunately try dengue fever you'll never come back there. I'm sorry to tell you these things and go against your enthusiasm but just because you are very nice person I wanted to tell you.Ciao!
Party pooper
Spend about 2 months on Lombok last winter. Went to one of their newer hospitals 2 times. Friend broke a leg and i´ve got a condition. The hospital was insane. No waiting time. Probobly quite expensive but my insurance paid for me. I would say its better than most hospitals in the west.
Lyuk 3107 If you have money it's not a problem and the hostpital are better than you think.
The mosquito is the most deadly animal in the world. Depressing, but true.
The service you get depends on the price you pay!
I do like Jon vlog..it's about what people loves ..discover new things,adventure and maybe normal day events
1. Do they have reliable water & electricity service there?
2. What about the risk of a tsunami?
3. Are foreigners allowed to own land there?
4. Is there any infrastructure? Who will build and maintain the roads to get there? Is the local government efficient or corrupt?
5. Are there many stores, restaurants, hospital or other services nearby? If not, how hard is it to live there?
6. Will all the building supplies need to be imported? Is this much more difficult or expensive to do? Are there extra government taxes on this?
7. How difficult and expensive is it to get to Bali? Is there a ferry service or only by airplane?
8. Is Indonesia a stable place to invest?
9. How long will you keep the house? Will you sell it within a year like your cars, or do you plan to keep it for the long term?
10. If you have kids within a few years, will it be safe to bring a baby there or is it too remote?
You can buy a similar place in some parts of the USA for half the price, though you have to watch out for hurricanes, so don't just compare it to the most expensive places like Monaco and Marbella. Also, there's no cheap easyJet to get there, so it will cost a lot more for you and your friends to go there. Do you really want to spend so many hours on the airplane to get there? Sometimes some deals are cheap because they are really bad deals. Sometimes it's better to buy land and wait for the area to develop first, so you're not the first builder to have all the headaches. Also, check to see if any big hotels are planned for nearby! Good luck!
Callie Masters this looks like a far more detailed approach than Jons simplistic " hey, nice sea view, great surf, think i can trust these 2 guys who have built here.....i'm in approach"😆....perhaps he has taken full legal advice etc...
not to mention the active volcano on the island.
Callie Masters maybe this is what makes Jon buy property in lombok?
indonesiaexpat.biz/business-property/indonesia-tourism-boost-mandalika-project/
1. Is he using ur money?
I think Mandalika project nearby by Indo government that convinces Jon to invest there. The Mandalika will be a gated 5 stars resort area with 1250 hectares in size (Paramount, Club med, Pullman, Marriot, Grand Hyatt etc) are having their 5 starts resort underconstruction already. It will be completed with MotoGP circuit and MICE facilities, yacht marina, hospitals, eco cultural parks, etc. Road, port, and power plant, also dams and other basic infras are underconstruction heavily in Lombok. Some are completed already.
Loved that place when I went there. Heaven 👌
Jon - I hope you have studied the legal requirements for setting up a Corporation with a Indonesian national as part owner.
Matt Lawson having a local as part owner on your property?, what possibly could go wrong😉
Yes, it is true
Congrats Jon for your new Future Home, im happy for you!
Now THAT'S my kind of beach. No one around. Doesn't get better than that.
ouiiiii ~~~uh no!
..not sure 'bout this adventure..in theory sounds good..hope toasting coconuts is not an 'official' commitment. I do know that folks that 'live on island time' have a way different way of doing life..laid back ..so be prepared for this to take a verrrry long time. I am wondering ..what do you do for electric..and fresh water..and sewer for that matter. I do hope it all goes according to your dream..and I am sure Janni's dad will be there in a 'professional' capacity of knowledge of building a home..I wish you the best..I also wondered..do you tress pass on those 'farms' below. to get to the beach...did not see any roads. Some of the comments are speaking of true 'ownership'..so, seems like more 'research'..its a learning curve for sure. I have only done it once..building from ground up..and things took longer and more expensive. than you think...just so ya know..again..good luck.
When your vlog inspo is all from this channel 😀
Congrats! Excited to see the villa development 😁🦀🐟🐚
❤️ from Indonesia
Amazing Jon thanks for sharing
You NEED to do it!😱😱😍
This is my dream as well. I hope that one day I can build my own house in a tropical enviroment. Good Luck on the build Jon
hi Jon I m Indonesian citizen, just info for you no foreigner can buy any piece of land in Indonesia, if you interested for investment in Indonesia better go directly to government,hope you luck. sorry for my broken English
Good. About time your government put a stop to greedy foreigners. Keep the country to yourself. Do not sellout to foreigners.
as I say no foreigner can buy any piece of land in Indonesia but they can invest in Indonesia, or marrying Indonesian maybe that one solution but that's also u got a deal with Indonesia immigration because they will track u down
Like before watching - Quality as always!
how can the blue planet gets over populated so quickly ? Well, the answer is in this video
Doesn't everybody have 2 or 3 homes these days?!
I am so excited to buy house there ! thanks a million to share this!
I'm sure Janni will love this place
You won many Jon, TH-cam is a great platform that will be your tool to show your business to the world, everything is always good in tourism investment and Lombok is a great choice because it is near from number one on the list of Travels' choice world destination in 2017 via Trip Advisor, which is Bali, and also near to another paradise that is Sumba island, and Lombok is in the middle of those Paradise. Well... looking forward to seeing the progress bro. Keep it up.
Banana spiders man. F that.
In indonesia/malay langguage :
Banana : pisang
Papaya : betik
Coconut : kelapa
Mango : mangga
lol I'm so happy when I see you guys learning to speak the language 😂😂
I'm a local... What i'm used to know is that foreigner only have permission to used the land, not permission to own it. Good luck with that. Without local and also someshit to do. You can't owned anything in there. CMIIW.
Adrianus Tirta Sort of like where I'm from in Vancouver BC. Majority of land owners are not even from here and buy everything. Makes it out of price for people who live and work here. Look out Indonesia there's gonna be an invasion of foreign buyers!
yup, he can only lease the land,usually for 20 years i think,(and u can extend it with government approval)
or u can get the local to buy it for you, so its not on your name.
tomp rocks So I wonder why he says he is buying it and not the other information that you know of? Wish they would have done that here. No one can afford to buy anything here unless they are rich rich rich.
i dont know man, maybe his partner has the local guy(that he trust and with some contract maybe.?)to buy it for them
visas, taxes, military, imans, should be fun .. jakarta money moving in ..
Awesome, congrats!!
That country has freakin...SNAAAAAKES!!!!
World of Tanks:Jaegerkorpset that country have some insane earthquakes and tsunamis!
That too....JON Olsson, go build an igloo in Greenland instead, much better!!
That 4x4 will come in handy over there, the portal axles make the G a little more comfy than the AMG version :)
