Making easier to read,

Architect hasn't started... that's me, my draft sent over to them, for them to start putting into CAD (or similar), and i shared here to give a reflection on what I was thinking (but not set in stone obviously). As far as the architect had got, before my brainwave

I have a builder already, and architect (they are working on other aspects not related to the 'garage'. I am more interested in understanding what others did when they built a self contained condo and sold it, (what issues/hurdles/rights etc) had to be worked out when the land itself wasn't being transferred. No, as we need a garage (we bought the land for that), and the wife wants a garden for greenery, and it's behind our villa (single storey absolute ocean front), we thought instead of just the garage, as this view has to be worth a few bob, -- you can't really complain about this view--, so the idea of building a condo on top of the garage and selling it to someone made complete sense. Note the garage is set to be 30meters back (from direct water). So we googled 'fazwaz' and lo and behold 2 bedroom condos with sea view are 7-15m THB So if we build it for 2m-3m (excluding the garage cost) and flog at a profit, that will offset any other costs we've accrued elsewhere (piling costs for an example), at approx 80m2 thats a nice holiday dig, with private entrance, and a few rubbles in my beer bucket.

Beach front Phuket. (well behind our villa) and the text Kitchen was an example (early planning) though for the record, home pro kitchens range from 50-900k so its a rather stupid answer, go and look in the 'proper isles' not the 'cheap isles', Also living room is there, in addition there's a 8meter long outside sitting area (in my draft)

All the engineering feats accomplished within Bangkok (thailand in general) even if they are slow, i'm pretty certain a solution will be found, perhaps all land from the sea to a mile of the city becomes marshes with a seawall put along the coast, then additional seawalls around the coastal side of the city, along with increasing the rivers and walls around them... for every problem concrete and rebar with a little $ has a solution.

Good, i have 5 on standby

Considering adding a condominium (self contained entrance single 2 bedroom condo) to a garage we are building (started piling) having uninterrupted sea-views, but unsure on one issue. From what i am used to, you'd just build (with licenses) and it would be allocated its own title, as it's technically sitting on top of a garage (with its own entrance) does anyone know the methods one needs to go to, to have a title issued specifically for the condo (separate to the landed garage/garden beneath), so we can flog it when done ???? For us it makes sense to capitalise on this as it won't impede our privacy (garage is opposite side of ours) set back and looking at similar view offering properties (condos) 2 bedrooms are fetching 10-15m THB I've sent off to our architect (my basic idea) so they can sketch into CAD and build the plans, to give us a idea of the cost(s).

Since disappeared after this post... Probably being worked on, on another wooden platform somewhere else of phuket.

Its pretty good, no complaints, we also have their batteries (changed to lithium about a month after that picture).

Can't but help think of

LOL

Been watching this construction on and off for about * a year now... Can't but help wonder if the 'hull' is possibly from the phoenix that went down, a few years ago, I'd have concern about the ballast being enough seeing as it looks rather top heavy anyway. But there's a lot of work going into it, and the additional areas laid onto the existing hull that was there, being stainless... Berthed on a wooden pontoon between Coconut (Koh Maprao) and Phuket -- where you take the long-tail from the pier to the Coconut pier. My picture The Phoenix that went down Anyone know who's carrying out the work? It's like a 'unofficial' ship yard lol floating on the middle of the waterway.
