The Met

[theguyfromanotherforum]

I see over 180 units for rent at The Met. That's 50% of the building.

How much can I lowball?

[trogers]

50%?

[steve187]

49% try anything first

Which half is empty? The Thai half or the foreign quota half?

Not the best location. Awkward to get to in a car and a long walk to BTS. Handy if you work on that part of Sathorn though.

I'm guessing you are looking at hipflat? I would say its not accurate, I've seen listings on there that are not updated for more than a year both under the for sale and for rent tabs. Also there are a lot of duplicate listings for the same unit, there are also poached listing where other real estate agency just copy other companys ads and list it.

You probably won't be able to lowball, people who buy those units have money, they would rather let it sit and look pretty then rent it out for below market price. So your lowball offer will probably have to be whatever is the lowest listed price there in order to be able to negotiate.
