Who's still thinking of buying a high rise condo after the earthquake?
Not a hope in hell have you ever noticed when Bangkok gets it’s heavy floods you see loads of vehicles up for sale obviously water damage when I visit BKK I would normally stop above the 15th floor for the view in future I will stay no higher than the 3rd floor as I don’t trust all these engineers who they claim have inspected 100s of buildings in the last few days with only two being condemned

Unsafe Condos In Bangkok?
A lot of damage can not always be seen by the human eye my house insurance only covers me for above ground level and not below the surface and that includes no cover on my swimming pool or my 60,000 litre rainwater underground concrete tank snd I’m only a single storey building

Unsafe Condos In Bangkok?
A structural inspection takes hours to do so I cannot see how 65 buildings could be condemned within a few hours so called engineers in Thailand are not to the standard of engineers from other major countries attending a two year course in engineering is a joke

Unsafe Condos In Bangkok?
Those renting should consider moving out if there are signs of structural damage to parts of the building those who own then theres not a lot they can do just hope that the sinking fund they paid into has sufficient monies in there to carry out structural engineering reports . In my humble opinion high rise property sales will be non existent and will be only for those who enjoy taking risks even the high rise swimming pools will be expensive to repair and I would imagine a lot are damaged I will in future look at low buildings hotels normally I would request above the 15th floor !

You have to get a lawyer who then goes to the court to make application that stipulates your name as being the deceased executer you then take the court paper to the bank concerned yes it’s a pain in the backside banks don’t like handing out money this is the only way you can get their account closed as executer you then can deduct charges against their estate so your not out of pocket !
