Low central fee 1000 baht per month Large swimming pool 24 hour security (rented and sold)Rent 29,000 ฿ Fourth one has all the regular amenities crossed out.. The final one at 300 baht also states... Rental fee 6,000 : baht / month ***Negotiable Devil is in the detail and the low numbers are a a sub-portion of the total rent. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kerryd Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Those are not the rents and all those ads are from the same outfit that is showing the monthly maintenance (condo) fee as the "rent" to sucker people into clicking on the ad, thinking they are going to get a condo that normally rents for 29,000 a month for just 1,000 a month. (Seriously ? 29,000 a month plus a 1,000 a month condo fee to live in a 53 sm box on the 22nd floor ? That's 360,000 a year. 10 years = 3.6 mil. You could probably get a pretty nice house for that much. In fact, I was just looking at some listings of houses and you could get a place 4 times the size for what you'd pay in 10 years of rent at that condo.) I'd almost say it borders on false advertising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see this same thing on Hipflat when you do searches for condos for sale in a project. When you sort by price, there will always be a few at the top of the list with ridiculously low prices. When you click on the listing for the details it is not the actual price of the condo but the down payment or some other smaller amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be an agent ploy for sure, i often see condos/houses for sale on Facebook for say 800,000 or 1,000,000 that further down says 8,000,000 or 10,000,000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A condo without one or more of aircon, TV, fridge, etc. Rental income is required to service repayments on borrowed purchase price and common fees. A sad consequence of Covid. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefaultName Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 OK, some of these are deceptive, but not all. In the block I live in, some condos where the owner would have laughed at an offer of ฿10,000 last year, are now asking ฿6,000 negotiable. BUT, it's a one-year contract, and expect the price to go back up after that if the borders are open. Still, right now, there are bargains. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilly07 Posted December 24, 2020 Share Posted December 24, 2020 The lowest figure quoted will come up first on a web search. Oldest trick in the book. Surprised you haven't found a site where the landlord pays you to house sit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eindhoven Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 There have been a lot of cheap deals going around sine before Christmas anyway. I posted earlier about a 48 sq. m seaview apartment going for 4k. Though electricity was perhaps 8 baht per unit; that's not a big issue when the apartment costs only 4,000. 113 sq.m apartment going for 10k. So there are bargains out there. Just ignore the agent tricks and go direct. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
