Real Estate

Overview

Indonesia enforces real estate policies within the housing and settlement areas sector (Law No. 1 of 2011 jo. Law No. 6 of 2023), which regulate matters such as dispute resolution mechanisms. In this context, the real estate legal services provided by Ario, Basyirah & Partners Law Firm (ABP Law Firm) include the resolution of housing-related disputes, both in and out of court. These dispute resolution services encompass representation in civil cases before district courts and administrative courts and assistance in criminal cases, as well as out-of-court processes such as consultation, negotiation, mediation, and arbitration.

Furthermore, ABP Law Firm provides legal services regarding corporate compliance for developers—such as legal due diligence concerning business licensing, land ownership status, and construction permits—as well as the drafting of sales and purchase agreements and business contracts with partners (e.g., building material suppliers), all in accordance with the legal framework for housing and settlement areas.

Our experience in resolving housing disputes involves a diverse range of parties, including relationships between project owners, main contractors, and subcontractors; relationships between developers and consumers; and relationships between developers and State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) or government bodies.
