Money alone does not equate to a lack of riff-raff. Not to put to fine a point on it; your place/area wouldn’t be on my shortlist.

The VT buildings and many of the condos are out dated now. I live in VT2 for 18 months circa 2004 and it was starting to look outdated then. Nice big pools tho.

The one thing that the VT condo's have over many of the new ones it that the footprint is a lot bigger than the newer shoe boxes, i don't know how people could live in some of these tiny units..... 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gargamon Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Good luck, you're going to need it looking for a condo in January, middle of high season. Plus, I recently was searching in that are for a condo for 5 months. Even though it was October, there were few available compared to earlier years at the same time. I blame it on the Russians avoiding conscription, etc. Strangely enough, even though all the condos are rented, the bike rental shops are overflowing as few are renting.

GypsyT Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 VT2 is a good place for a good price. Very quiet, very clean surroundings and easy parking. Nice big pool. Interesting reading here regarding VT2B. This was one of my past investment interest with VT7. Lots of inside info what's going on among farangs...

True enough.... sizeable parking, big pools and a bit of space around the buildings. Beats parking in the basement, pool on the roof and an ability to swap a newspaper with someone in the next block. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weirdos staring into other people’s apartments. 👀 Creepy. Maybe he was meditating. Now you are thinking that your landlord wants you out….Have you been spying on your neighbours again and creeping them out?
