monochaser Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I have heard everything from free to 100k baht. I am baffled by the extreme low figures of 2500 and under. I am very curious as to what these places look like. I can't even get my utilities for under that. I will start by saying that I pay 19000 for a 1br on Soi 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toastwars Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 I pay 1800bt, I live in Muang thong thani. It is a nice large studio room with good size bathroom, no roaches, 24 hour security a good night market everyday, food market with 100 stalls open 5am till 9pm, meals 20bt. I can take a mini bus to victory monument 25bt takes 15mins. I love it here the locals have really taken to me and my Thai has improved no end.

toastwars Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 would you be able to get by only speaking English? Yes but it will do you good to learn a bit of Thai, you will find it a lot easier to learn if you just speak a bit each day. Its not that hard ya big Mary!!

jackr Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Seven grand in Chiang Mai in a gated and guarded moo bahn just outside the city for a three bedroom, two bathroom, two floor, detached, one-year-old house with landscaped gardens surrounding. Gorgeous house and really quiet but fear someone will buy it soon and we'll be out on our ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backpack_thailand Posted February 20, 2005 Share Posted February 20, 2005 Move out of the city boys! Before buying my new place, I was paying 2,000 Baht a month for a beautiful detatched 3 bed bungalow here in Kanchanaburi in a lovely estate - tree-lined roads and all that! It's great here, though Feb/March?april it's the hottest province in the country...Phew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chanchao Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 5000 baht Chiang Mai (3 bedroom + maid room, 4 bathroom, garden around, etc.) Speaking of Chiang Mai, does anyone want this one? : 4000 baht: 2 bedrooms, one with aircon, large living room, pretty large kitchen, 2 bathrooms. It's a long a little stream South of town, but still Muang (city) district along the Hand Dong road. Not a gated moo baan, regular house in regular soi. I've no connection to this place BTW, was just looking for a place to rent for a friend who got the usual real-estate agent runaround with matching prices, i.e. 10K, 15K.. rediculous. So I looked around in the sois and found this as an example. 4K baht. Cheers, Chanchao Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eat your heart out <{POST_SNAPBACK}> ###### that's nice (consider my heart partially consumed) The difference between what you can pay to rent and what you pay to buy is unbelievable. But when I suggested to my wife that I just assume rent than build, I got shot down in a heart beat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jai Dee Posted February 21, 2005 Share Posted February 21, 2005 In Bangkok (Sukhumvit Soi 6) 3 years ago I was renting an 18th floor 2 bedroom apartment with large (80 sq m) balcony full of garden and jacuzzi for THB 55,000 per month + utilities. (Company paid ) Now, until my house is built, I'm renting a 3 bedroom 3 bathroom house in a quiet estate east of Sukhumvit Road in Pattaya for THB 23,000 per month. (I pay). The estate has full security and a communal swimming pool and gymnasium. You can get cheaper (and you can get more expensive too) in Pattaya, but I prefer to pay a bit more for quality.
