Maintenance Fee for Condominiums in Pattaya

[Good Lord]

I have a small favour to ask from you guys: Given that we plan on raising our maintenance fee in our building, I would like to compare our fees with other buildings in Pattaya. I would particular be interested in condos with 100+ units. If you could provide the name of the condominium and how much the rate per month is, that would be nice.

 

In my condominium we pay 25 THB/sqm per month.

 

Thank you so much!

Jomtien, 10 year old block, 400 units, private condo management company.  

40/sqm/month.

Private condo company adds to expense but its worth it, maintenance repairs, happen instantly. Things get replaced or upgraded before they break.

My condo 230 units 27 baht/sqm/month

[JusticeGB]

Mine is 25 baht per sq metre but there was an extra charge for extra maintenance of 25 baht per sq metre for two years for a major repainting of the building inside and out.

40b by sqm in Jomtien 6 years old building, around 200 units

Nirun Condos:  1988 units...mostly 26 meters...300 monthly fee.   It's been that way for the 12 years that I have lived in Pattaya.

[murraynz]

My condo has 424 units..

Its about 7 yrs old,well maintained.

3 yrs ago,we voted to increase fees from 30thb to 40 , then...

It increases 1 baht per year..

This yr, we paid 43 bahts..

That way,it helps to keep the maintenance up to date..

I would rather not live in a dilapidated building..

The question is very general and can not be seriously answered. Do you have a pool in premises? fitness room, sauna, Jacuzzi, mini golf, mini theatre, public meeting space, jogging track, garden, etc. etc.The maintenance fee varies accordingly.

my condo, in Bangkok, with all the above amenities, charges 45thb/sq.m

You can also check neothai for each condo, example below.

Other relevant info from people would be, how many security, office staff, cleaners and the dreaded management company 

[DefaultName]

500+ units, bill works out to just under ฿10 / sqm / month (฿5,814 for 50 sqm for year to be exact).

 

Management is in-house, no separate company involved.

[smutcakes]

120 THB per sqm for me in BKK. I believe Mahanakorn is something like 180 THB.

 

I believe Northpoint, Zire and Cove are probably the higher ones in Pattaya.

[JimboJ]

Novana Pattaya. This year 11,328 for a 25 sq m studio, works out to 37.76/sq m/month.

About 280 units. With management company, gym, sauna, pool, security guard at night.

But the sinking fund keeps disappearing and we have to make extra payments to replenish it.

 

The Avenue Pattaya, about 40 baht/sq. m/month.  In house management.

I'm 47K per year, 90sqm in Pratumnak, only about 40-50 units.

 

Very well maintained but i think still expensive!

That's about 45 baht a metre a month, maybe legit due to only 50 units. Maybe still need same office staff, cleaners, security etc

I'm sure it's legit but i still find pricey!

 The general rule is the more apartments/floors- the lower the fee /per M2. Economics of scale .

 

So in my Pattaya condo -3658 M2 spread over 49 apartments.

The basic fee is 32 Baht /M2 (as specified in the R&R)

A special assessment fee of 8 baht is added -this has to renewed by a co -owner vote every 3 years.

A further 7 baht is added -sinking fund. Again renewed every 3 years.

So 49  Baht  Total.

I thought VT2 had a fixed fee per unit rather than per M²?
