Pattaya Condos: History and Future
Give me a break. You regularly start these property threads to talk up the property market, despite data to the contrary. I have posted that you have a conflict of interest because by your own admission you flip properties here. You have skin in the game. You portray "buying" has a good investment, but the only benefit you have put forward over renting is "hanging some Chinese wall art." Guess what, tenants can hang some pictures as well. There's no moaning or groaning. I just don't see buying a property in Thailand in your late 60's as an "investment" and I have posted my reasons, math examples, and some links showing data. https://www.globalpropertyguide.com/asia/thailand/price-history "The condominium segment experienced a notable deceleration, with price growth slowing from 7.20% year-on-year in Q3 2024 to 2.46% (1.45% inflation-adjusted) in Q4 2024." Notable deceleration. You are now flipping houses. "Housing demand in Thailand remains subdued, though early signs of gradual improvement compared to the beginning of the last year are evident. According to the Real Estate Information Center (REIC), the total number of registered residential property transfers across the country during the first three quarters of 2024 reached 250,580 units, marking a 7.4% year-on-year decline." A 7.4% year on year decline. I particularly found this interesting. "In recent years, however, the percentage of homeowners appears to have been decreasing. A September 2024 article from the Prachachat Business Newspaper highlighted the so-called Generation Rent trend becoming more widespread in Thailand. According to the local experts cited, today's young professionals increasingly don't want to own a home because of pressure from the burden of living costs, coupled with housing prices that are beyond the purchasing power of this group of customers, especially in cities and locations with convenient transportation, such as train lines passing through." Younger Thai's are not even buying property. You are focusing on the "sentimental" reasons for owning, which is fine, but that doesn't make it a good investment. -

Report Race Against Time: Bangkok May Be Below Sea Level by 2030
Yes they talk, but don't do anything...It will take years to create a new capital, and if we all see how slowly they are on Rama II road it will take even several decades to make it, but Thailand never thinks ahead, only when their are getting wet they will take action, far too late.. And than we don't even talk about the coast resorts of Pattaya, Hua Hin, Cha Am Pranburi etc...I am living about 15km from the sea, but I told my partner, maybe we will get a house on the beach after several years- 1

Report Race Against Time: Bangkok May Be Below Sea Level by 2030
The sceptic will argue that anything we do could not possibly influence the climate, or effect the atmosphere. The planet is simply too large, and the population is too small to have any effect. Let the ships dump whatever they want into the ocean. The ocean is simply too large for anything we do to damage it. This frees them to buy as many plastic bottles as they please, drive filthy diesel vehicles, and behave as if nothing effects anything. It's not us. It is just a cycle. We are not responsible. I would guess in Europe the cost of a life is considered of consequence. Not here. And the will of the people likely carries greater weight. Not here. At least not under this useless non elected government.
