pattayalover Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 first she is from South. not from Isaan she has old parents and soon she will be alone with her sister after parents are dead. this is why she worries a lot. where to go if she lose her job . both sister take care of parents. my gf send little money, her sister cook and have a little job. it s not a lot of money and I have never gave her anything after soon 8 years. I was thinking to make her sign an agreement and make it notarised that it s my money invested in a house. I think I owe her something after all these years she took care of me. I was thinking to buy a condo in Pattaya but they are too attached to go back where they are born. the house can be built by her cousins who built house already. she has around 80 sqm very old woody house that must be demolished and build a new one. I was thinking of 2 bed room, one kitchen, small bathroom, and roof extended to keep bike away from sun & rain. never been married, she want but I told her we are together already. I think it's better to keep things simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deepinthailand Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Don't listen to the doomsayers most had your lass wrongly tagged as issan. 400000k not a lot can build a thai style house for that if you have labour in family. No point in my opinion of trying to get any sort of agreement re land or house. If it goes belly up you wouldn't want to live there anyway. Not sure if the law here covers boyfriend girl friend relationships ie if you are entitled to half the house but I doubt it very much. 8 years is long enough to make up your own mind. Has she ripped you off in the 8 years?? I suspect not otherwise you would not be a asking on here so just go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringogazzer Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 No Usufruct or lease is free, without enriching the owner,Section 531 CCC: The donor can claim revocation of a gift for an act of ingratitude ... if the donee seriously defamed or insulted the donor. Section 534 CCC: If the gift is revoked, the property shall be returned under the provisions of this Code concerning Undue Enrichment.& if you marry her less protection,Section 1469 CCC: “Any agreement concluded between husband and wife during marriage may be avoided by either of them at any time during marriage or within one year from the day of dissolution of marriage; provided that the rights of third persons acting in good faith are not affected thereby.”"In Thailand the marriage is the game-over for a usufruct." Or in other words: "Your usufruct is not safe, before your Thai wife passes away."So before marriage you may as well rent your own land away from the family's interference if the relationship goes wrong as you'll have to pay a "fair" rate for the lease/Usufruct to be lawful/enforceable. After marriage...doomed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AYJAYDEE Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Together for 7 years and you won't marry her and aren't sure if you should build a house? You say she takes good care of you. And she is 10 years younger than you, so when you're gone what will she have to fall back on after all these years with you? Unbelievable!!!

Cockwomble Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Why would you build a house to live with the family? Somchai is probably rubbing his hands with glee. Whatever you do, don't gave a big life insurance payout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howerde Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 (edited) After 7 years i say go for it, if you love her and want to be with her, its good she supports parents etc, don't be put off by stories of bar girls ripping of cutomers(farang husbands) these girls are just doing their job, can you afford it? Lots of cuples break up, if you did would you want to live there, time to show some commitment Edited October 15, 2016 by howerde Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold the Great Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 10 hours ago, pattayalover said: Any and I mean any money that leaves your hands and enters a thai hand is gone for ever, rule #1. She will build the house and when you stop giving her money you will need to build another house with another Thai woman rule #2 build or buy your own house and tell her your renting it and live in it with her. When your tired of her you can punt her out and continue to live in your house. Never ever underestimate the deviant behaviour of a thai person ever!!!!!!!!!. Another option is to put the down payment on a loan at a bank for her and help her make the monthly payments. Then and only then will you have some form of control for a few years allowing her to prove her commitment to you other than her financial wants should she be only interested in that.

What would she have had she not met him? What does she owe him for providing for her while he was alive when no one else would or could in this country? He does not owe her anything just like no one owes any women anything at anytime. If a women wants to have access to half of his money or belonging then she should go to work and provide exactly and I mean exactly half of what he provides. She would have had to look after herself before she met him and now she looks after him and he looks after her thus its at best equal and when the relationship is over so is that relatively fair agreement.

That's like my rule: in a country where you are not a citizen don't buy anything you can't take with you if you suddenly have to leave. Unless you can afford to take the loss. I came up with this in South America. I met local people who's families have owned property for decades, if not generations, and then one day some lawyers and gov't workers show up and explained the deeds were invalid because they were signed on a Friday preceding a national holiday, or some such nonsense. With a foreigner there is the possibility they'll top that off with that the transaction was a crime, and 72 hour notice to leave the country. Don't mean to be morbid, but if the gf dies the family can toss your ass out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Changwatchap Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 7 years and you have met the family 3 times? Anyway, buy it for yourself, after seven years surely you are a unit and it doesnt need to be in her name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
