Local Real Estate Agents

[Jimbo]

Hi all,

Does anyone know any good real estate agent in Bangkok as I need to rent some houses and flats for some staff.

Thanks as always!

If you are loking for accomodation for Thai staff forget about agents, get someone who speaks thai to read the local press. Better still get them to walk the soi,s and take down numbers of "For Rent' signs, you should be able to get somewhere in Phra Kanong for about 2,500-3,000 per month, all depends (I am assuming)if you want the accomodation for staff that are Thai, if Farang then use the Bangkok Post, agents put on about 10% so private ads are better. Look for the ones that say "For rent by owner" you will get a better price, just remember you can beat a farang down on rent but not a Thai, they would rather have the property empty than loose face reducing the price.

good luck
