ok, thank you to all..

I think the best idea then is to rent a cheap condo and motorbike for a few weeks in HH and drive around a bit and have a look around.. 

Hello,

i have long time this idea in my mind to move to HH. Now i start to check out some online real estate brokers, and also DDProperty, Bahtsold an so on.

I search for a quite house/villa with pool, in or close to HH. I am looking for a house with a bigger garden, like 400sqm up, so i not live wall to wall

with my neighbours. So far i found for some nice villas, for example "the lees Soi 88", "Mali prestige" and "Orcid palm Homes" interesting. The plots are looking spaceious, and i like the design of the villas. But of course i have to check out in real.

So i am not really professional with real estate. I only lived in condos and this will be the first time i rent a house, for sure there are many pitfalls, so i will be happy to get some advice from some members here. 

What i also struggle is the ratio from selling price to renting price. For example: there is The Villa XY. The asking price for rent per month with a 12 month contract is 40.000 THB.

On another website i see the same or similar Villa in the same project for selling for 6 mio THB (asking price). That would mean the yearly yield will be 8%, which seems a bit high. And i see this ratio with many other villas as well. I read in Bkk it is around 4 or 5% yield per year if you are lucky. If i use the same number for Villas in HH, the monthly rent should be around 25000 THB and not 40000 THB. Is that a realistic offer, or do i miss something? I just want to be prepared when it comes to negotiation.

If anyone can suggest a nice project with a big garden and pool in and around HH, please let me know

Thank you

Hello,

i read that 3rd of may IT Shops can reopen. I am looking for a shop in BKK with a good range of PC Monitors.

Any ideas? I try fortune already, but all is still closed. May be because it is more like a shopping mall.

Thank you  

Hi,

i have a good friend in need in HH. Does anybody went by car in the last days from BKK to HH and back. Are there a lot of police controls. Is it possible to drive?

Thank you

i not really understand...i just read it is still not allowed to travel or to cross other provinces. Hotels, beaches, etc are open again in Koh Samui, Phuket, etc?...Why people should fly there at the moment?

ok, thank you...i just want to confirm, as the 800.000 THB come into my bank account next week. So for my understanding the money has to be in my account for two month before extension, so i cant apply for my extension before middle of november. So i have around 14 days left on my visa, which should be ok i hope.... 

sorry one more question come up. My non immigrant o visa is valid 90 days. I arrived in thailand at the 2nd of september, so it is valid untill to the 30th of november. When is the latest date i can go to CW to apply for the 12 month extension?

Thank you

ok, so i guess i will find out soon ....Thank you for all answers

@lopburi3 

ok, i understand..thank you

one more thing about the new rules...800.000 THB have to stay 3 month after extension and then 400.000 THB.

How will immigration in chaengwattana will enforce this. I have to go to immigration and show my updated bankbook?

I know i have to make a 90 day report, are there asking then also for the bankbook? What happend if i go outside thailand every 90 days,

so no 90 day report is needed?

Anyone has some experience with the procedure?

Thank you

Hello together,

i arrived yesterday (2nd of september) in TH with a single non immigrant visa based on retirement from the thai embassy in germany.

The visa is valid for 90 days. 

I read  that i can extend this visa for 12 month at the immigration in BKK CW but i have to show 800.000 THB in my thai bank account.

I will transfer the amount this week from oversea to my thai bank account. So after i received the 800.000 i have two wait two month, then i can go to CW and apply for 12 month extension

Is my understanding right?

another question. I read also that the 800.000 THB have to stay in my account for a few month after the extension, and then i can withdrawal, but 400.000 THB is the minimum which have to stay at the bank account until my next extension. How is this handled at CW?

Thank you
