I used the sale period that the poster I responded to suggested--that was his 'assumption', not mine. Yes, it might not sell in a year's time. But, it also might not take a year's time. The recent house we sold was on the market less than 2 weeks. Nobody can say how long it would take. Meanwhile, the spouse has a roof over their head. I continue to maintain that the running costs of a condo in Thlaiand would not be very much for a year--also supported by Google. You don't have the huge condo fees and the huge monthly real estate taxes, as well as sometimes HOA fees, that you have in the US. Yes, there's no guarantee of cash, there is also no guarantee of no cash. Google says it's more likely there will be cash--and I agree, with all the people I know who own property also having cash assets, as well. The discussion was leaving property to a Thai spouse, not children or grandchildren. I have neither and have only been discussing what I know, and what I am planning to do, regarding leaving property and cash to a Thai spouse.
