Buy To Let - Thailand - Uk

[Blackandwhite]

Thoughts,

I have a few small rental properties in the uk, they have a 6-7% rental yield,

On figures that landlords get in thailand taking into account, it seams some properties are hard to resell if needed and the complications with ownership ect

What are thoughts on keeping investments in the Uk or home country rather than thailand??

Any experience on good returns would be interesting ?

How much time do you plan to spend in Thailand and the UK in the future? ie what are your plans? (or dreams for that matter)

If your already yielding 7%, stick with what you know.....depending where the properties are in the UK you may also gain capitol appreciation. Also Sterling is low at present so transferring the funds to Baht you may want to wait a while. has been some good news about UK economy this week and with Merve the swerve leaving BOE next year the UK economy may start to flourish resulting in stronger XE for you.

Depending which properties you purchase here will make a difference in resale. Established condos always sell well so do your research.

With over 65 Million Thais, target the domestic market.....it would mean setting up a Thai company but cheap Thai rooms for rent are mostly full long term....bit more of a headache with construction etc but the returns are far better and initial investment can be regainded within 4-5 years
