Hi Guys,
I'm eric, living in Jkt now. Wanting to build a house not for investment but as a 2nd home in Bali. I've read this entire forum couple of times at least, thanks for all the postings, very informative. I get the general idea of it, all the frustrations and bla bla bla. But we are all here more or less for the same reason, NO? Because we love Bali. Will appreciate any sort of constructive and suggestive opinions, ANyway, here are some of my questions;
1) Where can i find a decent plot of 10 are land for 500 jt? With decent views? I would prefer somewhere East with Ocean View or in-and around Ubud with Padi-field view?
2) I've heard and read many "water" issues. What's the solution with these "water" issues? Does dwelling a 50 metre well always solve the issue? or is there a landscape expert that could help me out here?
After securing that piece of land in the 6-12 months, i'm hoping to build it in the near future (2-3years) with the limited budget roughly between 1m-1.5m.
3) How come i don't see enough of modern architecture designed house in Bali? ie Japanese Zen-ish with paper sliding window and doors, opened (non concealed) steel column, big glass windows from ground to the roof,.. u know, like a house from the magazine "Wallpaper"?
That's it for now..
Thanks..
