Pattaya Condos: History and Future
A better return, possibly, but you can't shelter under a bank book. Some of us like to own the space we live in, to enjoy it, and to do with it what we like, with our own furniture, art, electronics, appliances, and accessories. Certainly that is the case for my spouse and me, and it's never been about a return on investment, but it's nice when it happens. Others are just as happy renting. Really, it's whatever floats your boat. So, from your figures, not mine, it seems house prices rose slightly, townhouse prices rose slightly, and condo price increases slowed, but still also rose. I'm not seeing a 'trough' or a 'stalling property market' with prices rising, even if only slightly, on average. So, from your figures, property values are rising. No reason why mine shouldn't, too. And, they have. If they hadn't, we would have gone broke years ago, selling twentysome properties at a loss each time. Once we buy a property, we try to make it better than any of the competition, both with good space planning and function, design, materials, and decoration. We then enjoy the property ourselves, for a time, get bored, and start the process again. It takes some work and it's certainly not for everyone. I do wonder why you are so focused on real estate when clearly it's not for you, at least here in Thailand. As far as buying or renting goes, I refer back to what I said in a previous post: I think a Pattaya condo buyer should be buying because they prefer to own rather than rent, prefer to pay themselves, rather than a landlord, expect to be living in the condo for a number of years, and realize that the condo may not increase much in value, if any, and might more likely just maintain its value. That's why we bought, and would have bought even if we might have lost some money--we like to own the space we live in. If that's not you, stick with renting. -
