PatinBKk Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Not been on the island a while but have noticed that some of the agent websites have removed "company profile" etc.....just wandering, does that mean that everyone has been sacked.....doubt that anything is selling or even renting....still see houses for sale on websites now that were for sale 3 - 4 years ago....what is the market like???....

MSingh Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 If the market was moving....how can you explain the same house being up for sale for over 3 years...

This Island, in my opinion, will be hit the biggest more than all of the Thai Main Holiday destinations, mainly because of it's now massive dependency on Foreign Investment & the Real Estate Market will be , surely, virtually non existent within 6 months to a Year.. The Size of the Island determines that & compared to Phuket & the other Holiday destinations such as Pattaya, this is small fry.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
