The Avenue Residence, South Pattaya

[onlooker]

My missus is looking at getting a condo in Pattaya. It would be used for friends and family, late 20s / early 30s age group, as a weekend getaway from Bangkok. They are the type of Thais that enjoy some shopping and a bit of bar hopping and a good night out in Pattaya. So the condo would be bought in a Thai name and using money that hasn't been brought in from abroad. She also wants something that could be rented out easily in maybe a decade's time if the novelty of visiting Pattaya wears off as people get older. So a location & development that appeals to foreigners is also important.

Been thinking about Avenue Residence by Nova Group. Location looks pretty good, easy to walk to Royal Garden and the new Avenue mall, plus not far from Walking Street. Nova also seem to have a good reputation and if buying ina Thai name the price for many units is about a third cheaper than buying in a Farang name. A unit is under 1.5 mill.

( I've also see the Park which is a bit cheaper but is over in Jomtien, also looking for a smaller development rather than one in a huge complex.)

Anyone else bought here, any obvious downside to the place?
