Jakarta real estate market — prices, rental yield and trend
- 12-month price change (USD): -6.7%
- Transaction cost: 11.8%
- Price basis: local-market average
Jakarta is one of the 156 property markets Glopra tracks. In local currency the same twelve months read +0.7%; the 7.4-point gap is the exchange rate, not the housing market.
What a buyer pays in Jakarta
Buying costs — transfer tax or stamp duty, notary, registration and agency — come to about 11.8% of the price here. That is above the 9.5% median across the set — the entry cost is part of the investment case here.
What it earns
We publish a price for Jakarta but no rental yield. No public rent figure exists for this market at the same geographic level and from the same source as the price, and we do not estimate one: a yield built from two unrelated sources would describe no real property.
How the tax works. 20% final withholding on the gross rent, with no deductions, for a non-resident without a permanent establishment (Income Tax Law art. 26). Owners who cross the 183-day residence threshold — common among Bali owners — fall instead under the 10% final tax of Government Regulation 34/2017, which is the lower end of the band. No tax treaty reduces the rate: art. 6 of the treaties gives Indonesia unlimited taxing rights over rent. Source: pajak.go.id / Ortax.
Who can buy in Jakarta
No full ownership; right of use or leasehold. That is the rule a foreign buyer meets first, not legal advice — check the current position locally before you commit.
How this figure is built
The price figure for Jakarta is built from asking prices from listings. It was last refreshed on 2026-10-15. We rate our confidence in this market’s data medium: the series is usable, but thinner or less current than our best-covered markets. We recompute every market the same way, which is what lets Jakarta be compared with a country average or another city.
