Property Due Diligence Checklist in Bali

How to use this guide

Use this guide as a preparation tool before a confidential consultation. It helps you organize the facts you already have, avoid unnecessary exposure of sensitive details, and understand what a lawful investigator can and cannot do.

The guide is not a substitute for legal advice, emergency support, or official reporting where those are required. It is meant to help you prepare a clear brief for a private verification process in Bali.

The strongest starting point is a concise timeline, the decision you need to make, relevant Bali locations, and any documents or messages you can lawfully share.

Common mistakes to avoid

The first common mistake is starting from a conclusion rather than a question. A useful investigation begins with what can be tested: the timeline, the decision to be made, the relevant Bali locations, and the information already available lawfully.

The second mistake is sharing too much sensitive information too early. An initial consultation does not require every private detail. Start with the objective, the relationship to the matter, the areas involved, and the type of report you may need.

The third mistake is asking for unsafe methods such as account access, illegal interception, spyware, or intrusive tracking. Those requests create risk and are not part of a lawful private investigation process.

• Start with a clear question
• Separate facts from assumptions
• Share only relevant information
• Avoid unlawful methods
• Request a report with limitations
