northernrock Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I understand there are around five reputable developers in Bangkok, with regard to apartment construction, and Land and Home are one of them. Can anyone advise me about the others? I want to buy a good quality apartment in Bangkok, and would like to deal with a reputable company, in terms of construction and management.

thai thai Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 Some of the one's I know about are: Land & Houses, Goldenland, San Siri, Preuska, Raymond Land (farang company), Major...there are others... The main thing is that you want to go with a well financed reputable developer to lessen the chances of them going 'belly-up' during the construction process, particularly in light of the increased cost of construction due to oil price escalation. Here is a recent article with some references to local developers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngkiwi Posted June 30, 2008 Share Posted June 30, 2008 You can't go wrong with Noble, one of the foremost developers. They continue to build high quality developments, including the likes of Noble Solo, Noble Reveal, etc. Check their web site at /www.noblehome.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm currently renting in Sukhumvit Suites, soi 13, which is reasonable, but I want to buy a better quality 2-bed condominium, so I'll look into these companies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quiksilva Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Note that "Raymond Land" should be "Raimon Land" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Incredible Hulk Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 (edited) I like TCC CapitalLand, Quality for money , Delivery before set completion date . Strong financial back up no need to worry that the developer is going to run away . Edited July 21, 2008 by Incredible Hulk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonfruit Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 Personal preference is Major Development. Fullerton and Hampton are the only buildings that i have walked into in Thailand and not been able to pick a fault with. Also, there is a building on Suk soi 38 called Silver Heritage that i also cannot pick fault with, other than the swimming pool is badly designed, but i dont know who the developer of that one is.

Look closer and talk to owners. After sales service needs attention, as do the cracks in the walls, the pool problems, and some smell problems. Major are OK, but don't expect what you dreamed of, be prepared for less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaParent Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Note that "Raymond Land" should be "Raimon Land" Aren't Raimon Land currently having money problems? Don't forget about the new Escrow Laws to protect your payments if you're buying off plan. Any 'reputable' developer should be happy to set up an account. Raimon Land sales people claim to have no knowledge of the Escrow Law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, my understanding (don't quote me) is that they use CBRE sales girls at there show units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaParent Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Thought I read something on here where they'd issued share capital to try and raise money and it was heavily UNDER-subscribed and required someone to bail then out? Or am I confusing them with another developer? Is that the same CBRE that are involved in The Sails and The Chateau in Pattaya? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
