Legal & ownership
Global Lease
A master lease over a large plot that is later split into individual villa interests; common in managed villa compounds.
A Global Lease is a legal structure where one larger plot is leased under a master agreement, then subdivided into smaller villa lots or unit rights for end buyers/tenants.
In many Bali “villa complexes,” your unit sits under this umbrella. The critical legal point is whether your individual lease right is clearly carved out, documented, and aligned with the master lease conditions.
Before signing, confirm term synchronization (master lease vs your unit lease), renewal mechanics, and registration details with a notary. If the master structure is weak, individual owners can face avoidable risk later.
