May 22, 200917 yr Well them budget very low for a good unit. Cheapest studios you can buy around 1.8 million those sell by project developers like the one Lumpini or Condo One. Locations often good like naratiwas rd or rama 3 etc. But if they want good condo around Sukhumvit Silom sathorn etc price is vary from 5 million to 20 million maybe more. Foreigners can get mortgage loan on property they own because they own title deed for them condo. That title deed is square meter not same as landlord had.

May 22, 200917 yr Author the friend of the family does not care if the unit does not inrease in value or is mega desirable as long as it can be let out and not lose value
May 22, 200917 yr the friend of the family does not care if the unit does not inrease in value or is mega desirable as long as it can be let out and not lose value Market here is the same as elsewhere nowdays. Units are losing value and difficult to rent (with good yields) at the moment.
May 22, 200917 yr the friend of the family does not care if the unit does not inrease in value or is mega desirable as long as it can be let out and not lose value He wants a sure thing, eh? No such thing. If he want to be reasonable, he must do a lot of research himself. Nobody can say "this" or "that" will work. It's all research, cold calculations, marketing (not sales), a bit of luck and most of all a desire to succeed. Now, MY opinion is that the Thai property market will stay stagnant for a few years, much like after 1997, and probably experience a slow pickup after a few years. Thais do not generally rent for more than a few thousand baht a month. Anything higher, and they tend to buy their own place. Foreigners do not travel to Thailand at all at the moment. Who knows when it will pickup again.

Buy 2 adjacent units and convert them into a 1bed/2bath.

A 1 million baht condo will only pull in about 5,000 bht per month maximum. It will retain it's value but there are so many on the market now it would take a long time to re sell. As a long term investment, say 5 years+ I think it's a very good time to buy.
May 26, 200917 yr I can suggest condo in sukhumvit 38, the name is 'Plus 38 Condominium' (Coz before i was stay there). They renting around 20.000 Bath/month (1 bed / 1 bath), only a few minutes walking to BTS Thonglor also nice facilities as fitness and swimming pool. Variety of foods until late night nearby, so u no need to worries find the food. If u need info about this, u can search the link: www.bkkcitismart.com
May 26, 200917 yr If this budget range includes fitting out and furnishing, that leaves only condo units of Nirun residence. Buy 2 adjacent units and convert them into a 1bed/2bath.
