I am planning a move to Bangkok soon and wonder how one finds an apartment to rent.  Is there website available to use?  Should i use an agent?  I am looking for a lower priced place.  Say under 20,000 Baht.

Anyone have a tip? 

you have nothing to lose by going through an agent.

 

also, facebook marketplace should have some apartment listings. go into marketplace and put bangkok in the location. 

 

you can also search youtube.

Hotels start at 450 baht. Stay in one until you find one.

We have a property forum !

 

FAZWAZ is the company you need, their website has many places.

Any specific area in Bangkok? 

Do you own a car? 

Is central location important? 

What size apartment. 

Studio or one bedroom. 

Pool important? 

 

 

Would add, don’t dive into the first place. Get a short termer then go hunting in an area you like.., there are condos all over.

On nut area right near sukhunvit has some decent places in that price range.

Besides the above 'Fazwaz', just Google 'property to rent bangkok' and you'll get a couple more sites, although many have the same listings, same & different pricing ...

 

... DD property

... thailand property & few more

 

You can filter in the area, or even the BTS/MRT stop on some sites.  Quite handy, as you do want to be near a rail line, or at least a bus line.

 

If seeing something that interest, cross reference the complex, building name, or find using Gmaps, and you may get some more info & reviews on Gmaps.   Also streetview, to see actually what is in the area.

 

Good Luck
