Buyit in your wife/g f name and get a 30 year lease , but better still ,rent.

The best knowledge is forgathered from bars.

Put everything in a Thai persons name is the best way forward. Works every time.

Buyit in your wife/g f name and get a 30 year lease , but better still ,rent.

Exactly !!

I met a guy in a bar....... Thought it was to continue in I bent over to pick something up and Ooooo it brought tears to my eyes

I agree with Winnie 100%, best to buy in your g/f or wifes name if you lose it at least you know who to :-)

And when you get divorced you do not need a lawyer to arrange a settlement. I like it, cuts out the middle man

Agree with above

for you Tommy the bore is over

Foreigners cannot at present in general own 100% freehold on land

Some overses Thais and Chinese seem to have found ways around thiese regulations where I live but they are big families and big players.

Condos are one route

Renting

For beer advice a bar

For real lega advice a reputabe lawyer

"This bloke told me that foreigners who want to buy property, have to set up a Thai company, but new regulations now state that the maximum shares allowed is now 39% - i'd heard it was 49%..any ideas ??"

Several, Tommy.
