At first glance, it may look like Bali’s real estate market has cooled. But smart investors know better.
The post-Covid boom positioned Bali as one of the most exciting lifestyle investment markets in the world.
Cheap land. Affordable labor. Minimal regulation. A booming digital nomad population.
For less than the cost of a 16m² studio in Paris, you could build a five-star villa in Uluwatu, Canggu, or Pererenan.
Returns were exceptional. And the energy was electric.
Bali became a launchpad for entrepreneurs and a magnet for capital.
The 2025 Market: More Complex, More Mature, Still Attractive
We’re now in a more sophisticated phase of the cycle.
Thousands of villas developed during the boom are entering the market.
Foreigners still face limited access to financing.
Buyers increasingly prefer new projects, wary of construction quality on existing builds.
Meanwhile, land prices have climbed to levels that squeeze margins and limit traditional resale models.
But here’s what’s important:
The fundamentals of the market are still strong.
Demand hasn’t vanished—it has shifted. What’s needed now isn’t more inventory. It’s smarter infrastructure.
The Secondary Market Exists — It Just Needs the Right Infrastructure
Let’s be clear: there is a secondary market in Bali. Sellers want to sell. Buyers want to buy. The opportunity is there. What’s missing is the infrastructure to unlock it.
The problem isn’t appetite—it’s access.
Today’s real estate model wasn’t built for borderless investing, on-chain proof, or fractional participation.
But that’s exactly what Propex is solving.
We’re building a digital-first real estate platform for the next generation of investors.
One that is global and open 24/7 by design.
Why Tokenization Is the Infrastructure Bali Needs
Propex brings liquidity, access, and trust to Bali’s real estate market through a fully tokenized experience.
We make properties:
Digitally ownable
Fractionally investable
Instantly transferable
Visible to a global buyer base
Transactable via stablecoins like USDC
And we do it all through a blockchain-native interface designed to simplify, not complicate.
This is not just innovation for innovation’s sake.
This is infrastructure for a new financial era—one where people don’t just dream of owning a slice of Bali, they actually do.
This Isn't a Trend—It's a National Strategy
The Indonesian Financial Services Authority (OJK) recently released the 2024–2028 Roadmap for the Development and Strengthening of Financial Technology, Digital Assets, and Crypto Assets.
This is more than a policy document—it’s a signal.
Indonesia is actively prioritizing:
Asset tokenization
Digital ownership frameworks
Stablecoin infrastructure
Regulatory clarity for blockchain innovation
Financial inclusion through Web3
Propex is building exactly what this roadmap envisions.
We’re not ahead of the curve—we are the curve.
From Fragmented Market to Fluid Marketplace
Real estate is transforming.
From static to liquid.
From local to global.
From exclusive to accessible.
Bali remains a dream market. But dreams need systems.
Propex is building the connective tissue—between sellers and global buyers, between static deeds and programmable ownership, between real estate and real liquidity.
Because smart investors don’t wait for markets to change.
They build the change—and profit from it.
Propex is currently in Beta. Reach out if you want to be one of the first beta testers of the platform (check the links down bellow)
