Whats the penalty for landlords for having a Westerner in their house on overstay?
If the landlord/owner has filed a TM-30 he is in the clear, but 7 years ago I don't think people bothered so much, Here in Phuket I've seen some hefty fines for the landlords, the overstay is nothing to do with the landlord.

Is it better to buy or rent property in Thailand as an expat?
When you look through some of the Facebook groups, at condo's for rent, not worth buying, rent if you dont like it you can move, We own some condo's here in Phuket and after 7 years I would very lucky to get my money back, the only saving grace it has been a good rental unit's and still is, ours have a pool view but owners on the backside will be losing money as 2 huge condo blocks are going up, when they had a view of the mountains, not no more, the value will have nosed dived,

Foreign cyclist severely injured after being hit by Phuket Airport taxi
Phuket is popular with serious cyclist, I see the bikes they have, many always seem to head towards Rawai as they like to go up to Phrom Thep cape and back down, I rode my bike for years here in Phuket infact when I first came to Phuket 23 years ago it was one of the first things I bought, then later I got a better one, I always thought it was pretty safe, there used to be a big group who used to come down to Nai Harn every Wednesday evening,

Having a harmless pet in a condominium (which does not allow pets)?
Not a good idea having cat in a condo, cats dont <deleted> on their own doorstep, especially if the project says "NO PETS" A friend of ours has a identical apartment to us, and she decided to rent it our long term, our project also has a no pets policy and very strict about it, this tenant decided to smuggle a cat in, she did kick them out, but now she cannot rent it out no more because of the smell of cat piss, these apartments have laminated floors, maybe she has to have the floor taken up. On top of that there is damage to the curtains and furniture, The tenant used to leave the balcony doors open easy for a cat to get to other units, so if they had left their doors open the cat would go into the other units <deleted> and piss there, The way the building is designed the cat would be able to wonder across 5 different units,
