Lots and lots of developer/vendor finance deals on offer at the moment due to distressed market. An alternative to having to rely on the banks for the money. Change of plan, now when we move to Chiang Mai and buy a house, my wife wants her younger sister to move in with us. She will hopefully be going to a University in CM. When I asked if she will be contributing towards her keep I thought WW3 was going to break out. She does come across as a lazy person. So to cut a long story short I am not looking at buying a house now as I would not be able to keep calm if her sister got a part time job and went out clubbing every night and I may be stuck at home unable financially to go out myself. Have not told my wife yet but I think now we are looking for a rental and give my wife time to build up a business before we buy. 1 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you recommend a Thai to buy a house in England in someone elses name? Not everything is bloody racism. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they could easily afford it and wanted to, why not? I have bought many properties here in my wife's name... I look at it as a gift - - though I am not sure why anyone might want to own a house in England... though an old friend of mine just bought a condo in london, he seems to be enjoying that for a couple of months a year.

Neeranam Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 Good idea to transfer wife money every month for situations such as this. I would say she teaches kids English, borrow some local kids, take a few photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jak2002003 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 (edited) Tell your wife she needs to get a full time job when you move to CM. Rent a place for a few years while she saves up some money. Then buy a house together. If she is unwilling to work or contribute anything, or put in any effort, then forget it. I would not be buying a house for someone who wanted to live off me like a parasite getting a free ride. Oh, and I would not buy her her own busness either. She needs a proper job, not lazing around, playing on her phone in an empty coffee shop paid for by you.
