TLDR : Answer Summary
Owning a condo in Thailand does not automatically qualify you for a long-term visa. However, there are specific conditions under which you might be eligible. If you are over 50 or married to a Thai citizen, you may apply for certain visa types. Additionally, there are new visa categories being considered that may relate to property ownership if the purchase value exceeds $500,000. For an Investor Visa, you generally need to invest at least 10 million THB in property or another qualifying investment. The discussion also touches upon the humorous notion of 'pretending' to be Thai, but it's important to understand the legal requirements clearly.

No, but if your condo worth 10M baht you can apply for investment visa, otherwise try to get Thai elite visa

We should not convict others so that ourselves are not convicted. Don't convict them because we may also behave like that in the same situation.

As in investor? Yes, with a minimum direct investment of 20 million baht in any of the 13 targeted industries you may avail of the BoI Smart Investor Visa program,
Owning a condo does not give you access to a particular visa but might if the 4 new categories are implemented. However, the value of the condo for the new visas is likely to be more than entry level. But why 'predend'?

If you are over 50 - Yes. If you are married to a Thai - Yes.
