Folks,

 

A friend is requiring a long term rent in the Soi Bukhaew/3rd road/2nd road areas in Pattaya.  does anybody have any information on availability. His budget is quite low so hence an apartment or room is probably more likely than a condo but any info greatly appreciated

Plenty of availability in the general area. While it's not really a "low season" as far as Soi Bouikow goes, they have finally found their niche, it isn't crowded outside of normal 5-7pm traffic.

 

As you surely know, have him book a place on a daily for three or four nights and just look around. 

 

Prices range from 2500 Baht a month up. Security deposits not really an issue, if they want anything beyond 2-3000.Baht give it a miss. There are no "leases" in the area and price range desired. Long term generally means a month. Very easy to find rooms with adjacent food vendors or restaurants. A 7/11 or Family Mart hardly ever beyond 200 meters from any place. Food markets have sprung up as well and are open daily for fresh vegetables and food to go. Supermarket on Pattaya Klang(Big C Extra) and grocery on Pattaya Tai(Friendship). On the low end you might not have AC or a fridge provided, basic furniture, no TV. A little higher up the scale and fully furnished including WIFI is the norm. I'd guess that at 6-8000Baht you are in the big time with weekly cleaning. 

 

Cheers mate and God Bless You and Him. OO.
