Octo Bali Group — Real Estate Consulting Bali

Who This Is For

European investors who want to do Bali right

Every month, Europeans arrive in Bali with capital and ambition. Most leave with questions nobody answered honestly. Some get it wrong and pay dearly.

Bali is an extraordinary market — but it operates nothing like Europe. The legal structures, the building culture, the permit landscape: all of it requires a team who has actually navigated it, not someone who has read about it.

That is what we offer. Seven years. Forty villas. The real picture.

First-time investors You've read the blogs. Now you want a real conversation with someone who has built the villas you're looking at.
Experienced buyers scaling up You've done one deal. You want to go bigger or develop your own project — and you need someone to build it.
Capital partners You bring the investment, we bring the team, the network, and the expertise. We structure a deal that works for both sides.

Our Background

European standards. Bali expertise.

HTL

Technical Foundation

Civil engineering degree (HTL Hochbau) and early career at an architecture office in Austria. This structural grounding shapes how we plan, cost, and supervise every project — without outsourcing the decisions that matter.

2012

First Developments — Austria

Began with apartment acquisitions and full refurbishments in Austria — buy, renovate, rent or sell. Each project refined the fundamentals: cost control, site management, and reinvestment of returns.

2015

Developer Scale — €10M Project Volume

Scaled from individual units to full developer projects. Approximately €10M in total project volume across Austria — new builds, refurbishments, and managed sales. The proven foundation before entering a new market.

2018

Market Entry — Bali

First villa completed, local team assembled, legal and regulatory landscape navigated from the ground up. Leasehold structures, permits, notary networks, contractor vetting — learned from first principles, so our clients don't have to.

Now

Octo Bali Group — Operational

40+ villas delivered across Bali's key corridors — from Canggu and Berawa to Seseh and Uluwatu. An in-house team of 60 builders, senior project leads, and a trusted network of notaries and property managers. Now advising European investors who want to build, buy, or develop — without the usual blind spots.

We started with a flat in Austria, a spreadsheet, and a lot of skepticism from people who thought renovating property was too risky.

By the time we left the architecture firm, the model had been proven enough times to bet on it fully. What followed were years of learning — first in Austria, then in Bali.

Bali taught us something Austria never could: that the gap between how a market works in theory and how it works on the ground is enormous. That gap is exactly where most outside investors get hurt.

We are not consultants who studied the Indonesian real estate market. We are developers who have operated inside it for seven years — made mistakes that cost real money, built relationships with the notaries and contractors who actually matter, and come out with a playbook that works.

That is what we are offering to share with you.
