Hi All,

Looking for advice on areas not far outside Chiang Mai (ring road, etc, not in buffalo town) that offer for sale bungalow properties (2, 3 bed). Obviously with the standard security guard on alert etc. Looking to pay around 2 million. Searched alot of areas on the net, but after already buying property in Thailand before I feel these sites are over pricing for what is on offer.

Not expecting a palace but in a reasonable area, newish with garden would be nice.

Any ideas welcomed.

Thanks All

Not sure that "security guard" and "alert" are words that sit together naturally here .

Not sure if there's much around that you could class as newish in a decent place for the price you're after - more likely to be about three.

I think this site is best: http://www.jasminehomes.co.th/ Should be many around the 2 mil. mark.

(Search for example: http://www.jasminehomes.co.th/listing_brow...=House+for+sale )

Some that look a particularly good match (and are all under 2 million) include:

http://www.jasminehomes.co.th/listingview.php?listingID=1531

http://www.jasminehomes.co.th/listingview.php?listingID=1489

http://www.jasminehomes.co.th/listingview.php?listingID=905

Beyond that, it's a matter of driving around and asking around.

There's a (monthly ?) magazine called 'Home Buyers' Guide - Chiangmai', which might be useful, it has a lot of info about local moo-bans, mainly in Thai but partly in English. Buy it at good bookstores or PM me for their www-address.
