The new condo is very large, with no shops nearby, so I will be totally reliant on using the motorbike or car for daily shopping. 

Use the Grab, Lineman or FoodPanda App on your phone to get your shopping delivered at the door.

There must surely be more to this story. I'm afraid renters can be subject to this kind of situation in any country, not only in Thailand.

Beautiful post 

I actually read your post with a upper class British accent

Thailand has unexpectedly strong tenant rights laws, especially after living in the same unit for so long. A lot of owners don't know that it is almost impossible to evict a rent-paying tenant unless there's an egregious issue.  Any effort to restrict your access to the unit or utilities is a separate criminal offense. A consultation with a Thai real estate attorney is only a couple of thousand baht.  Living in conflict with the owner would suck, but it sounds like it is your decision, not his.

Buy don't rent!

Possible problems with owning are legendary.  All set in your own condo everything is newly renovated and happy as can be... then the new neighbors move in and love to do karaoke, or get into late night yelling fights  or worse.  Other owners quit paying hoa fees and the maintenance deteriorates.  If its a house a mechanic opens a motorcy repair shop next door that is open til late night.  Your neighbors bring in vicious dogs that terrorize you.  The list never ends.

 

Renting for sure also can have a big pile of problems but at least you can pack up and move on if it becomes intolerable.

 

One size does not fit all.
