FalangBaa Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 20,000? LOL. I pay 8,000 a month, no deposit, 1 bedroom, 1 living room and spacious balcony, quiet street, fitted kitchen with stove, dishwasher, washer/dryer and microwave, LED TV, air-conditioned gym with brand-new equipment, swimming pool, glass-walled power shower, nice furnishings, silent air conditioning, 3-minute walk to BTS Sky Train. There are a load of falangs paying silly prices like 20,000 and above, whereas the majority of Thais in Bangkok are paying 5,000 or less and living in perfectly decent accommodation. My ex-GF was living in Bangna and paying 2,200 a month and had a spacious room with everything she needed, even air con (but preferred to use a fan), also around 5 minutes from the Sky Train, with loads of restaurants nearby where you can get a filling meal for 40 baht. Falang him stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sydneycraig Posted July 20, 2012 Author Share Posted July 20, 2012 You generally get what you pay for no? Looking online I can see what you get for certain prices so assumed 20 a reasonable figure for a modern 1bed in a modern building with facilities in a decent location... And yes I know that agency online prices can be gotten for 20% or so less... Anyhow all recomendations appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrRealDeal Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Don't be afraid to look at 20,000 bht places ....... unless you think a "spacious room " is your idea of living it up ! lol You get what you pay for my friend don't kid yourself into thinking people in 5,000 bht places are not living a poverty lifestyle , even if they don't even know it. People like to brag about how little they pay but for some strange reason they never give the name or phone number so people can verify it. My wife rents a place for about 3000 , some might find it liveable it has 2 upstairs bedrooms and a downstairs , it's in the getto along with similar places in Bangkok ...... Your average poor Farang would call it a great deal , I call it a crappy place in the getto for a poor person who has no choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamSipEt Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Ha yep agree... Think 20k is a minimum for what I'm after ! Emails/websites/numbers will be useful Here are over a 1,000 of all different shapes and sizes http://www.asiapropertyworld.com/thailand-homes-condos-apartments-for-rent-xa1-0 Spoilt for choice but I would caution against the lower end of the market. I'm sure that some are good deals but most will have some negative aspects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sydneycraig Posted August 3, 2012 Author Share Posted August 3, 2012 Seems a lot online are agency and so monthly not available unless inflated massively ... If you stay somewhere good and pay 20k or less let me know if anything in your building available ... A few beers on me for your troubles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
