Property Agent in Nunukan

Vorneo Property is a property agent for selling, buying and renting homes, shophouses and land in Nunukan Regency. Nunukan sits at the northern tip of North Kalimantan, bordering Sabah to the north and Sarawak to the west. Its seat is on Nunukan Island, and fast boats run from Tunon Taka port to Tawau in Malaysia. Sebatik Island is split between Indonesia and Malaysia. Seaweed farming supports many coastal families on Nunukan and Sebatik, while the Krayan highlands are known for Adan rice, which is also sold into Malaysia and Brunei.

A house or shophouse in central Nunukan, a garden plot on Sebatik and a rice field in Krayan aren't marketed the same way, so we start by asking what you're selling and what papers you hold. Then we suggest a price from similar properties, help prepare photos and videos that draw buyers, and list it on vorneo.id and Vorneo's social media. We screen buyers, check documents and join viewings with a checklist. In a border area, also keep in mind that only Indonesian citizens can hold freehold ownership (hak milik), so a buyer with Malaysian citizenship should first ask a notary which right they can hold.

The regency seat is in Nunukan district, and Nunukan Selatan, with areas such as Mansapa, Selisun and Tanjung Harapan, shares the same island. On Sebatik, homes sit among gardens, rice fields and seaweed farms along the coast. Sei Menggaris, on the Kalimantan mainland, has a border crossing into Malaysia. Krayan, up in the highlands on the Sarawak border, can only be reached from Nunukan by air, so a viewing there has to be scheduled around the flights. That's why a checklist for a town house differs from one for a rice field in Krayan or a garden plot on Sebatik.

For land near the border, check its position against the boundary as it stands today. Indonesia and Malaysia recently reaffirmed the line on Sebatik Island and on several mainland segments, and some residents' land, including in Aji Kuning village, now falls on the Malaysian side, with the government arranging relocation and compensation. Ownership proof among the affected plots varies, from certificates to village letters and private deeds. Ask the Nunukan land office to check the parcel before you pay, and ask about its zoning too, because the national border area has its own spatial plan. For certified homes, we run bank repayment simulations.

If you have a house, shophouse or plot in Nunukan or on Sebatik to sell, or you're looking to buy there, send us a WhatsApp message. The consultation is free, there's no upfront fee, and the commission is paid only if the deal succeeds. Include a photo of the land papers, the village or ward name, and a location pin. For land close to a border marker or up in Krayan, we draw up a list of what needs confirming on site and at the land office before any payment.
