Thread: Attorney in Amed?

No man. It's a villa which I am buying for personal use. Any staff recommendations would be appreciated too.

D'ya know of a lawyer in Ubud or Candi who might be knowledgeable about Amed real estate?

No notary in Amed that I am aware of and none in Culik either. There are a few in Amplapura however.
We previously used I Nengah Swadi who is on the main road in Amlapura when driving towards Amed. He is opposite the soccer field.
Telephone number I can locate is 036322912, 08164257049 (not sure if these are up to date or not) email is notaris_swadi@yahoo.com - but he is VERY bad at answering emails.
He completed initial paperwork for our purchase and we used Austrindo Lawyers in Kuta on the bypass. Our lawyer said that he is the best notary in Amlapura and they use him for everything they do up there.

Good luck!

I would note that many people here are bad at answering emails - so don't make that your criterion for selection. Feedback from others who have used him are what you should note.

You guys rock!

I have heard of Austrindo from a couple of realtors and middlemen now. Solid work? What's the typical fee, as a percent of the prop value?

I will look up Swadi. Turns out the initial villa paperwork was done by I Ketut Sarjana SH, a notaris in Karangasem Recency. Anyone heard of him?

Sorry to innundate you with questions. I hope this discussion helps those who look into Amed in the future.

Yes, sorry, that's not what I meant. My meaning was that perhaps email would not be the best way to make contact.

We used AustrIndo, have not had any problems (that I can spot). They have been very efficient so far. Their fees were pretty high (this is a rather subjective statement), but that is to be expected I guess. Our land was also pretty cheap so their fees seemed high in comparison to the total land price. Effective and efficient at replying to queries, clearly and in timely fashion.
