Looking For Commercial Retail Space... Good Things Don't Come Easy!

[cyberholz]

Simple really, I'm looking for commercial retail space at a good Bangkok location, but boy, once you listen to a certain property agent!

Don't want to name any names, but has it become common that an agent asks for a substantial payment to even move his arse to show you some properties?

Goes without saying that they also want to know how much key money you're ready to pay. Before seeing anything. Otherwise why move one's arse?

Reminds me on a recent add in the Bangkok Post: 99k baht for a Valentine's package in a not too outstanding hotel.

The mega greed is back! Which usually happens before the fall.

Seriously, can anyone recommend a commercial/retail property agent?

No, not that company that even has the word "cheap" in its domain name.

Thanks for any input.

Get off your own arse and do the footwork yourself without the help of an agent, maybe then you will realise why they ask you a few simple questions about key money etc.

Fair enough, that's exactly what I'm doing, but paying for the chance to be be shown objects, that's new to me!

Define, "a good Bangkok location"

I see for sale/rent signs all over the place.

Try ddproperty.
