There are some unique benefits of dealing with a knowledgeable Real Estate Agent not affiliated with a sole developer which we outline further below:

 

1. Receive a broad overview of the market – As real estate agents deal with a range of buyer requirements and offer For Sale a variety of properties they are in tune with how the property market as a whole is performing, what projects are progressing well and which you may be better to avoid. This is critical in a location such as Lombok where most buyers are not full time living on the island.

 

2. A larger range of properties for you to choose from – As real estate agents are contacted regularly by sellers they will be able to offer you not only a broader range of options than a developer with a specific product, but also make sure that product best suits your requirements.

4. Based in Lombok – Many developers as based elsewhere in Indonesia, or sometimes even overseas, as well as their sales staff. Having an expert on-the-ground provides you with a range of advice that being based remotely just cannot provide.
