rak sa_ngop Posted October 29, 2010 Share Posted October 29, 2010 One question springs to mind: If you are buying a freehold condo in your own foreigner name how do you prove that the mortgage monies for the purchase have been brought into the country in a foreign currency? Or maybe the property is purchased in the mortgage company's name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nara80 Posted October 29, 2010 Author Share Posted October 29, 2010 It’s good Question from rak sa_ngop. I was told in this issue before. There are few steps for MBK mortgage approval. 1) MBK need to qualify building project which they need to site visit asking project developer for information as total building area, total sales area, project facilities, floor plan layout etc. 2) Since project is qualified in MBK project list, they will appraisal the room to be buying. 3) MBK will give loan to project developer to let them managed Tor Tor 3 by themselves. 4) The buyer would inform to land officer that purchasing full amount by Tor Tor 3 and then making mortgage through MBK. Thus, MBK wouldn’t give mortgage to every project. It also depends on project developer which knows how to making proper paper at land office and can trust them. As far as I know from my experience, It’s depends on land officer’s consideration which we dealing with as well. Anyway, all above steps are not typical procedure which you need to ask MBK officer case by case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
