I am soon hoping to sell a relatively substantial rental property in UK. There's enough in there to comfortably buy an upmarket condo in Nimmana, Chiang Mai which is my favourite part of the world. I am stereotypically more than 20 years older than my Thai gf / partner. She has her own home and my salary of course.

I can see that the Thai property market is not exactly where you would choose to invest and that good quality housing stock can sit for long periods without interest. I am keen to ensure something tangible is left for the family when I'm gone.

Thanks in advance for your advice.

I noticed a couple of nice looking new condos somewhere around soi 13 or 16 or somewhere around there when we were last in the city a couple months back but a little close to the main drag.

Why not buy property in her name if you are just making an investment for her future?

Thanks. I have already bought a property for her in her little town in Phetchabun. I don't fancy dying quite yet and if we were to fall out I would be back in Blighty which it is the point of the exercise to avoid.
