November 21, 20205 yr Properties in Thailand in general loose in value after being sold from the developer to the first consumer buyer its like the value of a car the older it gets the lower the price..So whatever property u will buy here the value will only move downwards after u own it. Its not like in Europe where properties will gain steadily in value year after year...

People have different experiences and they write about it. Great. Sure, I can ask a real estate agent or two. But will he tell me the truth? Or is it more likely that I will get an answer like: Don't worry, I handle that, no problem. It won't take long. The agent has his own agenda and I can't blame him because that is his business.

Also the prices in the older buildings (i.e. 20 year old building) go up.

Very lucky if can get back ur initial investment after paying taxes and agent-fees . But believe whatever fake statistics you want.... I know the REALITY !!
November 21, 20205 yr Older condos are better value, designs can be questionable I.e. Big studios. New condos seem have a better use of space I.e. one bedrooms the same M² as older studios. Just need to check the condo out to ensure it's not run down and it hasn't been ruined by erections building on the balconies

I like the idea about a BIG studio. I looked on the internet about designs and design idea and one of the pages I found was this one: http://www.futurahomedecorating.com/home-decorating-styles/studio-apartment-floor-plans/ Lots of small places with everything squeezed together - definitely not what I want. But at the end of that list with 50 examples they have two floor plans which they call loge suite. That's something I like. Now I have to work out if I can afford it.

With studios there can be little difference between how they look 40m vs 50m, both rectangles, often 1 balcony no other windows, same furnishings just more spaced out. Once you get over 45m and over one bedroom is better although bigger studios do often have a sliding wall to separate the bedroom from lounge/kitchen

Do you know the rates of appreciation of land in Thailand????? The very fact that you would write "There is very very seldom a capital appreciation on real estate in Thailand" shows you have limited knowledge on Thailand real estate. 40 years ago Thonglor used to be practically rice fields, last year Shangri La Group bought a plot there for 2.1 million THB per sq wah. I sure would like to be the owner of that land that showed capital appreciation, the same with nearly every other piece of land in BKK. There are loads of Condos all over BKK which show appreciation- nearly any condo on mid to upper sukhumvit for a start... Older ones- Chidlom Place, Somkid Gardens, Kallista Mansion, Langsuan Ville to name a few Newer Ones- Domus, Millenium, Willshire etc etc The list is endless. Sure if you buy rubbish in rubbish location then you will struggle, same as anywhere.
November 23, 20205 yr Given all the small condos here I'm surprised you don't see more Murphy beds, or perhaps they are around and I just haven't seen them.

Thais aren't big on Murphy beds. They're weird. Used to be a company in Pattaya selling them, though. In a small condo you end up living on the bed anyway, no need to stow it.

The trick is having a heavy enough spring. It went up on it's own when you pulled the release and was real easy easy to pull down. Made into a great sofa.
