Agent to help with tabian baan change (Bangkok CBD)

[cocoonclub]

Looking for an agent in Bangkok who can help with changing myself from one tabian baan to another. I can do this myself but don’t want to deal with it and my current landlord. 
 

It’s really just:

- coordinate a date and time between current and new landlord and district office 

- prepare a PoA for me to sign

- ensure all documents are ready 

- go to the district office, meet current and new landlord there, get everything done 

 

any recommendations? 
Any idea how much this would cost? 
 

would prefer someone who can speak English.

Thanks! I always forget that. Bangkok it is.

You don't need the current landlord. The Amphoe will deregister you in the old house book (assume yellow) once you are registered in the new one. Tabien baans belong to the owner of the house/apartment, not to the registered persons.

As stated above, no need for current landlord. Just need to go to the old Khet and get a letter(only foregners need to do this), take it to the new one with the new landlord.

What letter is that and how do I get it? If it is required to get onto the new house book, I guess it still means that I need the current landlord?

So this means I can just go to the district office with my new landlord and get onto his house book, then let my current landlord know that I’m on a new house book and, therefore, not on theirs anymore?

I forget the title of the letter. No, you don't need the current landlord.
