    Am i stupid, time will tell

    Somebody told me theres a world recession going on but people who had money still have the money and are still buying.

    This is an old thread but relevant today with the world economic crisis. What I hear from people with property to sell is that prospects are not buying. People still have the money to come here as tourists but with the economy in its current shape they are afraid to put down a big chunk of money to buy a property.

    Actually, the Indonesian economy is booming, mostly due to local demand. As for property in Bali, I agree with pollyanna. Fewer people seem to be buying these days, however that does not mean prices are going down. Local sellers can usually afford to wait out a slow market and foreign sellers mostly own their properties free and clear, so there isn't the pressure of mortgages, bank foreclosures etc. At best, the weak demand is slowing down the price rises of property in Bali, so now is actually not a bad time to buy.

    I've actually heard recently that estate agents are doing great business - not boom times but good steady sales.

    Go figure?
