HAKAPALITA Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Land is rather vague, Apart from Felangs overvaluing it generally up country its worth very little unless for growing rice with water bore, near a busy road that 7/11 can open.

kingstonkid Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Legally they can seize the land as it was not here to sell. That would .or he good for her. If there was a guarantor they will go after them. They will also.seize anything she has for instance where is she living Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally there is a limit, things like a quite limited amount of clothes, enough simple utensils to prepare a basic meal, etc, This happened to the daughter of a family acquaintance, she borrowed way way beyond her means (bank should have never lent the money), eventually the bank sold the debt to a debt collector. The collector swooped in quickly and took her car and m/cycle and 99% of furniture clothes, appliances etc etc. The collector didn't have any permission to enter the property, they just went ahead. Police contacted, police said 'too busy'. The debtor tried, after everything gone to claim that some of the items didn't belong to her (TV), Nobody listened, they just laughed at her.

True, plenty of areas in Thailand, many just barely outside of villages and towns where you can buy OK land for very very little money (in the name of a Thai person of course). My Thai son has done this, just 25K away from our current house in a city area, he's bought 3 not small plots of land (all roughly big enough for a small village of say 10 houses), all for a song, as speculation for his quite young daughters. Each plot was around 40-50,000Baht. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not paid in the next 5 years, the debt is written off and you can start again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of people walking around picking up tin cans and plastic to earn some money here.

No money means No money= No plan.. No vehicle and no home means nothing in value for the bank to take.. So im guessing the bank can't do anything after they take the land.. They can't be forced to work and your reply does not answer the question does it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They put it up for sale for the amount they are owed and wait until hell freezes over. Then they can carry it on the books as a full value asset. Not sure I am correct but judging from the decaying unfinished projects from the 1997 Asian crash that can be seen in Bangkok/Pattaya that could have been sold/salvaged and completed that is my guess. If the banks had sold those projects they would have to declare a loss. Now buildings crumble until the land value meets the outstanding loan amount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ54 Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 There was an article about hospital admittance and 13 digit number. The injured person was a visit by the loan sharks (I assume) it was over money owed. They beat him unconscious. Hopefully they borrowed from a legal loan facility.

Pedrogaz Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 A variation of this happened to my wife. She had three properties on mortgages from 1990 . The rate was 20%. The bank repossessed the buildings in the late 1990s and in 2006 sued her claiming that the sale of the buildings did not cover the loan. They sued for the unpaid portion and the interest charges at 20% which came to a large sum pot money and which she was unable to pay. She declared bankruptcy which took several years. During that time she could not legally own any assets or she would have had to forfeit them, nor could I give her any money as they would have seized that too. In practice, I understand that assets can be put in others' names to avoid seizure, but your lawyer can advise on this. We are 12 years after the initial court date of December 2006, and my wife is still unable to get any credit or credit cards, even if it is just a second card on my account. Get a lawyer and prepare for the long haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in practice when the ban repossesses the land they sell it off...cheaply to their mates and receive a kickback....and then try to recover the apparent "loss".

baansgr Posted September 29, 2018 Share Posted September 29, 2018 Gotta ask, if the outstanding amount after the land is sold equals 500,000, firstly the banks lending criteria is skewiff but what on Earth did she spend all the money on...or is it accumulated interest that has made it so much?

pedro01 Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 My guess would be they don't owe the bank anything. It is however a marvellous sob story and much better than a sick buffalo. I would exit the relationship you are in immediately so that some other schmuck can take care of the payments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
