naturally we already have a trusted friend as our nominee and chose to use Austrindo solicitors, which is ran by an expat, Peter Johnson.
Well worth the extra money rather than just using a notary, as recommended by the agent. The property was not originally intended as an investment, but then we thought maybe rent for a few years and help with the loan. Question was more about the fact that the property is in a friend's name. We already know about paying tax in Bali, but there is a tax agreement with Australia for claiming it back.
