  1. I think it was at 2. floor in Karnk. 3 but not 100 per cent sure as we have seen many condo´s lately - just remember the matress in bedroom looked like a crimescene and there was no kitchen appliances unlike what the pic on their web-site showed ...

    I imagine that we might pick Conv. Condo or a house that has been offered privately.

    We kind a liked Baan Suan but thats gonna be one big building-site soon

  2. Just another example of never buying property in Thailand and never Invest any Money in anything here ...

    Tell that to Bill Heinecke who made his US$ 1.14 billion fortune in Thailand

    Or my good friend Peter who built Cape Yamu in Phuket, or my good friend Alan Zeman and his Paradise Group that built Andara in Phuket....

    I know a lot of guys who've done very well in Thailand.

    Far more than the ones who've lost money.

    You wouldnt happen to be a real estate agent would you ... ? cheesy.gifcheesy.gifcheesy.gif

  3. What haze? You can still see people in the water from the beach. Come to Chiang Mai in March or April and see what haze really is! Two months of it!!!

    So true. I've lived in the South and I've lived in CM. In the South, maybe 10 or 12 fairly bad days a year. In the North, at least a couple months of really bad days. It must come as something of a shock to newly minted expats who know only the cool season.

    In CM its SMOG not haze ... Haze is a atmospheric phenomenon while smog is pollution from e.g. burning garbage ... They like to call it haze so tourists dont know that will get sick from the smog ...

  4. True Vision is a bit like Thailand it self ... : Overpriced, bad service, same thing showing again again and yes again once more ...

    We have tried both Gold and Platinum but if you have a good internet connection (rare I know) then just get netflix, sports channels and what not ... Easy save 1,000B per month ...

    True Vision suxx big time, thats for sure ...

  5. Hi OP. I am living in Karnkanok 3, I love it here, all the top floor condos are two stories (will meet your size requirements they have from around 80sqm- 180 sqm), also rents within your budget, great to have a living area and then upstairs for sleeping feels more like a house when you are in it rather than an apartment, the views are great, over the city and also of doi suthep mountain, hidden away from major roads so only noise to complain about is the plane noise which u will be getting anywhere in the area you mentioned. Friendly people living here and friendly helpful staff , Small pool, gym and sauna, private and hardly used. Location is excellent, good local restaurants in walking distance, and 5 minute scooter ride you can be at maya (supermarket, cinema, bars), the old city, hospitals, etc. If you got any questions Im more than happy to answer, hope it helps, cheers.

    Thx for your info about K3 - we had a look at it but the agent from Perfect H. was so inept that we left quite fast. Just an example : When we asked her why the pool was so dirty, she just said "dont know" - didnt even bother to ask the reception guy ... blink.png
