Condo Leasing Agents
Question: is it unusual for the same condo to be listed with multiple agents? Or is that fairly typical? I'm in the process of moving, and when I see a condo online that I like, I do a quick search, just to see what I can find. And sometimes, I see the same condo listed with several agencies. Maybe some of those are just old listings, but I'm not sure. And the funny thing is, the same condo can be one price with one agency, and another price with another agency. -

90 days reporting - Can I do it online ?
If you just did it this morning you are already passed 90 days, the 25th of May would have been your 90th day. Some offices require you to submit it between 15 days early and 7 days before as the only time frame. Since this was your first 90 day report since returning from out of country you would have to do it in person. -

Finance Foreign Nationals Face Account Bans in Bangkok Bank Crackdown
Transferring money from your UK Bank-account directly to your Thai bank-account is a slow, expensive and non-transparent method. Obviously, using your UK bank-card to withdraw money from a Thai ATM is even worse. But when transferring money directly from UK to your Thai bank-account the exchange-rate used by your bank for providing that service is more often than not very bad, and sometimes also the receiving Thai bank charges a fee. Several posters in this thread already mentioned WISE. And the reason that people use WISE as 'intermediary' to transfer money to Thailand, is simple > WISE uses the mid-market rate (=the actual exchange rate, the middle of the buyer-sale rate and which changes every minute) and WISE charges a very modest fee for transferring your money to any foreign bank-account, and you will know beforehand exactly how much THB the recipient will receive. Cheap, fast and totally transparent. Do check it out, https://www.wise.com , as it will easily save your hundreds of £ making use of their excellent service. -

For those who built a house, was it cheaper than buying a pre-built one?
You will have discovered from all the above posts that building in Thailand can be a nightmare. If you have no design and building experience the nightmare gets worse. We went the other route and bought an existing older dwelling (we liked the land and location) and the had additions to suit our needs. Yes, building is cheap but involves a lot of anxiety. This is made worse if your wife has no idea of building and tends to side with the Thai builder, only because Thais know everything and the farang is stupid. If you are going to build you need a very, very strong relationship with you wife. This does not just apply to Thailand as there were many near divorces in the home country when building homes. -

'Where you come from? What your Job? How long you stay Thailand?'
forced? Er; perhaps they are trying their best to express interest in a fellow human being? How do you speak to them in Thai?
