Bangkok! Tourism is good. Food is excellent. Service is top. You are made to feel like a queen/king!

There are a few on-going projects which I'm aware of. Thai developer Sansiri launched four Thai residential properties in KL recently - The Base Park East and The Base Rama 9 in Bangkok, and The Base Uptown and Dcondo Creek in Phuket Island.

The Base Park East will be completed by the fourth quarter of 2015, while the other developments have been completed.

Check them out!

Bkk good investment - can rent to tourist , hire maid clean room. Rent to farangs , ang moh.

But problem is how u goin to managed from here.

So far I read Thailand is a well-developed infrastructure and a free-enterprise economy with a generally "Pro-Investment Policies", and not to forget great foods. tongue.gif

Great sharing by someone in another forum

I wish to have one in Chiang Mai

If i not mistaken, Thailand is one of the ASEAN country not allow foreigner to buy property under they name.

I had just found out over the weekend from one real estate agency, Henry Butcher Malaysia that I can actually own a freehold property in Thailand under my name. I was told that foreigners are allowed to buy condominium on a freehold basis... FREEHOLD...

I did some research and found out that it is true, though I am not a lawyer, here goes "By way of background, the law governing condominiums was enacted as Condominium Act, B.E. 2522 (1979). This law was liberalized to allow foreign investment in condominiums by Condominium Act (No. 2), B.E. 2534 (1991), which allowed foreign persons and entities to own condominium units on a freehold basis, but limited foreign ownership to 40% of the total area of the units of the condominium."

can know what is the legal, stamp duty & other costs to own a property in Bangkok ?
in Malaysia, its about 3%-4% on the property price.

say RM500K, then is around RM15K-RM20K.

Also, what are the condo price in general ? loan is also 90% max ?

every year i do go to Bangkok, for their temple and as short term holiday.

Foreigner max loan shud be at the region of 50-70%.
