i checked the location here.....there will be no bars there,,,but View talay has so many people living there......I think too many....becomes a huge mess....

I had a friend with a condo on the 14th floor of VT2. He said there was a load of noise from the bars in the Jomtien Complex way into the night.

View Talay whatever number. The most overhyped condo complex in Thailand by Farang sexpats. Could not pay me enough to live in one of those buildings.

so why you say a 38m2 condo pays the same as 68m2?????? is not true

duh

If anyone lives in VT 7 - I have often wondered if the owner pays for all the service charge apportioned to the - what looks like - hundreds of unsold units on the two wings of the building? The structure looks pretty damaged, and I bet it needs some serious annual maintenance, but no doubt great views from the central portion.

Why would a farang sexpat want you anywhere near him?

I can confirm as i read that on their forum ,  

So now it is the moment to sell as all bars are closed = muted..... hence they go their best  chance maybe ....   clever action ...

 

PS not only Jomtien complex bars ....but there where many behind that Hanuman statue place .... a little hidden from road sight ..."pumping" many bass sounds they complained

if the condo has more than one chanote then it's officially more than 1 condo, double units are 2 condos so pay 2x fees. Some big units in VT2 are 1 unit so 1 fee. Thought everyone knew that

but there are many weirdos too there....one guy invited me to check his condo there, old dude, because he saw me checking the ads on the bard in VT2.....so I came there in his room and he was like thinking to sell it ....not sure....but when I told him I have a thai girlfriend....he immediately kicked me out.....

and there was another seller there that mentioned there were many gays living there....and I am sure he was one of them

and I checked the third condo, little bigger, 73 sq meters, gorgeous and there was seems to me a working girl there too and he was all sweaty, <deleted>less etc like they just finished their thing....lol.....

i wonder how many people are in swimming pool because there are 1000 condos there???

so 72 sq meter costs same as 38?? that is strange....it akes double space.....I am pretty sure you are mistaken

Like i said it depends how many chanotes, find out. You understand that 2 units knocked together still have 2 chanotes so 2 fees? it's not based on m²

One guy's huge mess is another guy's target rich environment.

That might be a misunderstanding. One of Pattayas most famous landmarks is the Waterfront Condominium. I am not sure if it is a good idea to buy anything there...

 

is this STILL STANDING ???

SUPPOSED TO GET knocked down !!!

Perhaps after they removed the illegal buildings in the Walking Street. ????

Are all these condo's made with salt-ridden beach sand like the one that fell down in Florida? Corrosion pretty much guaranteed for the rebar. Beware.

Must be a big issue for some condos. We have had to force our original developer/owner to pay for the common fees on the unsold units but we have to take him to Court every year to get the money. If 75% are unsold who pays for the services?

Business licences not going to be renewed from what I hear.

Only the top 10 floors are required to be removed.

This is an endless soap opera. I personally doubt that it will not continue and would be very surprised. But the problem there is not so obvious since these buildings blend somehow in. At the Waterfront Condominium it is clearer to see that there is a problem and this from far away already.

I am afraid the long corridors do look a bit like that. Also so many leave their doors open (to aid cooling), with the ensuing noise and/or cooking smells. The VTs have good locations and hold their value, but it is a hotel like lifestyle. 

Lots of time share units in view talays, noisey too in my experience.

 

i have never understood  why maintenance fees  are  based on sq.. mt.. size, because maintenance is for  cleaning, garbage collection,  security,   lighting, and general maintenance of "public areas", nothing to do with an individual condo

So you think a 32m condo should pay the same as a 160m condo?
