rahni Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Hi all I have noticed a couple of threads on building in Thai. I would just like to inform any who are interested , that my father inlaw is a builder in Udon Thani and is a very respected and trustworthy person. I personally know all of his workers and we have only recently bought Rai in Udon and things are under way to start building. I have seen prices etc. posted on this site that do sound well over the top (up to 50%) over the top from my experience which I HAVE seen and do know the financial side of things. Most of us Do realise that Farangs DO get ripped off unless they can speak a decent amount of Thai and understand the 'Thai' way ! I'm an Aussi by the way who has been amongst the building industry in Aust. all my life. Any who would like info on anything I would be pleased to pass it on.

Thais can build a livable house at 300K baht. If you are ready to spend 30K A$ you could be in a mansion there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rahni Posted August 16, 2007 Author Share Posted August 16, 2007 Not sure who you are replying to (300k) for a house in Thai ? But that is my point exactly ! after hearing that ppl on this site have said they have spent 1.8 mil ! and others asking where to find a builder !! Your joking surely ?

There are more than "a couple of threads on building in Thai"land There are prices from 6,000 baht/m2 on up. "Things are under way to start building"? You haven't even started building yet and you're promoting your father-in-law.... Edited August 21, 2007 by Tomissan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
