September 15, 20214 yr Hello Samui, I have been trying for ages to buy: a Detached, 3 bedroom house, 1/2 K to a N/E beach. I must have owner financing. If you hear of anything, I sure would appreciate it.

A 20% down payment and some sweet interest on the balance for 10 years might sound good to some sellers. Of course hang onto the deed and be able to evict the buyer if they default would be in the terms, registered at the Land Office.
September 16, 20214 yr Author LarrySR, Thanks Man, I hate this financing. We offer 50% and 6 years term. What do you mean that I cannot buy a freestanding house? Just not a condo/villa in a cluster. Ownership, I can forget that I know. xs

Leasehold is the only TRUE safe legal method (30 years or 30+ with an additional legal document that is written with Thai leasehold potential issues in mind). Many (and I do mean MANY) use a lawyer to purchase as a company. It not 100% kosher but so many do use the method. Use a good law firm if you go this route. Personally I would not but MANY have. Your wife (if Thai) can buy the land. Your girlfriend/boyfriend (if Thai) can buy the land. Don't trust anything an agent, seller or involved party tells you. Do your due diligence.
