John is there a process I know of a house and would love to take it over
Ask the banks...sometimes though its a very wealthy Thai that will just leave the place "vacant" for years and years they never rent it out or come to stay it just sits there "waiting" and looking un-owned.

You really need to read my whole blog https://ecohousethailand.com/ to fully understand the degree to which insulation have been designed into the building.
Ok lots of insulation but how does the room get down to 26 degrees in the first place ?
so after looking at your rather impressive (expensive) "eco" house website
The answer ????
QuoteAir-conditioning:
Aircon serves two purposes, firstly to cool and secondly to dehumidify the house. I briefly considered using DC aircon units, but they require dedicated solar panels and dedicated batteries, they are also very expensive to buy in Thailand. So DC aircon for a spare bedroom would have solar panels and batteries that were not being used if the room was empty. I prefer to pool my solar production and storage to use it where it is needed.
The main concern with running aircon off a solar system is how to run aircon at night off batteries. My system utilizes a hybrid inverter so I can always pull from the grid if I need more power. However, I want to design my house to be off grid for normal use.
The choice of aircon units: I chose the smallest BTU units I could find using the smallest number of watts. I chose 8,500 BTU Daikin Super Smile Inverter II it uses 640w in normally running and an “intelligent eye” system which tracks movement and reduces power if the room is unoccupied. 5 units installed was ฿100,000

There are still some unsold condos around from that time..its seems the banks just sit on them waiting and waiting for someone to come along and clear the debt + interest somehow avoiding writing it off as non performing loans.

Perhaps things have improved, perhaps not,
No not much they still seem to use only 2 voice actors the male having an unnatural deep "handsome voice" with lots of "ohh hoy" expresions thrown in.
The Thai's dont seem to mind probably because thats the way its always been , but it puts me right off watching a foreign film dubed into Thai.

"greened" then why do they keep cutting down the old large shade trees and replacing them with puny palm trees that have no root system to hold the soil together and offer very little shade

You could just as easily blow the household budget buying lottery tickets, if a person is addicted to gambling they will find a way to gamble, they gamble at the horse-racing tracks,at cock fights,at boxing matches,on football results,over beetle races or Siamese fish fights even at funerals.
its the very same "problem" as prostitution and drug use the government tries and fails consistently to
eradicate the "problem" when the real "problem" is them being illegal...they have legalised some drugs like tobacco and alcohol but seem to be regressing on those too.

Yes most likely it will eventually get to 100%

Sometimes it can take a long time weeks or months to finally get the entire file....sometimes it never gets to 100% it all depends how many people/machines are "seeding" that particular file if no one is seeding then no one gets the file..if the only computer seeding the file is turned off or not connected to the internet no one gets the file.
Seeding just means sharing, the torrent client works out who has what parts and who needs those parts
eventually everyone should end up with all parts but only as long as parts are still being shared/seeded.
