Dry goods | Thailand's best house and location strategy

In recent years, I have seen many real estates with my friends and recommended various real estates to my friends. During the period, my friends will ask a lot of questions, the most of which is what kind of house to choose in Thailand? How to choose a room? Today Xiaoxing will come to chat with everyone.


1. Choose what city to buy?

Thailand's best cities for real estate investment are Bangkok, Pattaya, and Chiang Mai, followed by Phuket and Hua Hin. But the positioning of each city is different, there is no absolute good or bad, green radish has its own love, as long as it suits you is good.

⊙Bangkok-Thailand's top brand, high level of internationalization, high prices, large rigid demand, high rental returns, suitable for living and investment, many high-end properties to choose from.

⊙Pattaya-close to Bangkok, it is also a seaside tourist city with a large growth space, suitable for living and investment.

⊙Chiang Mai is an ancient city in the north. It is suitable for home life investment due to retirement and children’s education.

⊙Phuket is a popular seaside tourist city, suitable for resort-style residential investment, and the real estate is mostly leisure and holiday style.

⊙Hua Hin-a small seaside tourist city, suitable for resort-style residential investment.


2. Investment or self-occupation?

When confronted with this question, many friends who buy houses almost always answer Xiaoxing: buy a house suitable for investment and self-occupation. In fact, the purchase purpose of investment and self-occupation are different. When investing in a house, the first consideration is the rate of return on investment, while buying a house for self-occupation first considers one's living needs. Think clearly about which aspect is important.


3. Buy an apartment or a villa?

Foreigners can buy Thai freehold condominiums with foreign quotas. According to Thai law, foreigners cannot buy villas or townhouses with land property rights. They can only buy them in the name of an entity company. It is also possible to lease land use rights and purchase limited property rights for villas, which means that villas are not freehold property rights, but the advantage is that the price is relatively cheap. You only care about once owned, not forever.


4. Buy existing or off-plan properties?

Generally speaking, existing homes will be more expensive than off-plan homes. The benefits of existing homes are intuitive and what you see is what you get. While the off-plan property is bought in the future, although it is rare that there will be a situation different from the floor plan, it is obvious that there are various uncertainties. Therefore, it is recommended to buy off-plan housing products from large developers and established developers.

⭕️Lot——

Li Ka-shing's famous saying "location or location" can never be wrong. The real estate in the urban center, the seaside, the riverside, and the park is more popular because of the prosperity and convenience, and because of the extra points of the city view, sea view, river view, and garden view. Because of the hot weather, the closer to the Skytrain and subway stations in Bangkok, the higher the price.小星觉得,离天铁、地It is not recommended to buy a house 500 meters away from the railway station, unless the property has a shuttle bus.

Choose a real estate that is convenient for life and travel, and is not noisy. It is best to have shopping malls, vegetable markets, convenience stores, hospitals, schools, etc. nearby. In Bangkok, choose real estate not far from Skytrain and subway stations, and other cities not far from public transportation.

In addition, do not choose an area where Indians live together. Although the house price is slightly lower, you may not adapt to it. Also pay attention to avoiding temples with chimneys (crinciners) next to them. If you live by yourself, don’t get too close to the red light district.


⭕️Building scale——

If you choose a large-scale real estate, the advantage is that there are relatively many public facilities, large public space, and the scale of the property company. The disadvantage is that there are too many people. Small-scale buildings have relatively few facilities, small public space, and a small property company. The advantage is that there are fewer people and quietness. Therefore, you can choose according to your own preferences. Generally speaking, a moderate-sized real estate is perfect.


⭕️Property Facilities——

The standard facilities of general Thai apartment properties include: parking lot, gymnasium, swimming pool, and some hotel-style lobby, private garden, sky garden, stadium, library, club, meeting room, sauna, laundry The room, the children’s playroom, and even Xiaoxing saw that the real estate has a standard boxing ring. Of course, these are provided to the owners for free. Each building has different supporting facilities, depending on your choice. The weather in Thailand is relatively hot. Xiaoxing recommends projects with larger space and more greenery.

⭕️area——

Thai real estate is calculated based on the actual area of the house, including the balcony area, and there is no such thing as a shared area. The main area is more than 20 to 60 square meters. Even such a small area, the living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom are all available. If it is a vacation or rental, this area is sufficient.


⭕️Room Type——

Many Chinese want to buy a house with a separate kitchen with partitions, but this kind of house is relatively rare, most of the room types are compact, generally the entry is a small kitchen, and the independent kitchen is basically open.

In the same area, there are one-bedroom and two-bedrooms. This is a luxury or compact positioning. For investment and leasing, the rent for a two-bedroom apartment with the same area will be slightly higher.


⭕️floor——

Generally, the higher the floor, the more expensive the price.


⭕️Towards——

Because Thailand has a lot of sunshine all year round, and even too much, you don’t have to choose a south-facing house to buy a house. You can choose a house with a good view outside the window. Of course, everyone thinks so, so the relative housing price is high.


⭕️position——

Many real estates in Thailand have dozens of households on the first floor and the corridors are particularly long, so try to choose a room closer to the elevator, but don't choose the room next to the elevator and close to the utility room. It is best not to directly oppose the door of others when choosing a room.


⭕️Decoration——

Thai real estate is generally well-decorated, equipped with air conditioning, wardrobes, kitchen cabinets, induction cookers, range hoods, bathroom cabinets and bathroom facilities. Some apartments have hard-furnished furniture and home appliances, and some real estates have soft-furnished furnishings. You can move in with a bag as long as you bring your personal belongings. No matter which one you choose, there are a few things you should pay attention to:


The walls of some apartments will be different from the model houses. There are no TV walls, marble walls, etc., and the walls are just latex paint.

Not only do some real estates have no washing machines, but they do not even have a washing machine space and water supply, because many real estates have public washing machines. Some properties do not have balconies and no drying space.



In short, it is difficult to choose a perfect house, as long as you feel it is good, you can start.
