Should we keep our UK bank account open and transfer money to Thailand for retirement and investment?

Invest uk better returns open thai bank account and keep what you need fantastic value if you rent property in Thailand i would for first year at least give you plenty of time to find area you like and what you like . Lots of building going on in Thailand now and may being over done lots of empty properties and value not likely to go up may be come down For good advice I contact Neil Walter’s has huge experience in all aspects of investing insurance etc here in Thailand if u want his contact details pm me

I personally think you should invest in UK, with your higher rental income there you can enjoy a good life here.

Also you will not earn any interest in Thai bank account so no point transferring all the funds here.

Keep open your UK bank account

First off all you can't buy a house or land only condominium second the rate a the moment isn't good so you should wait a bit maybe it goes a bit high and last thing keep you bank account in your country

Think long and hard about trying to invest in Thailand. Your money will make more in a simple certificate of deposit than you will here. Rental income can be very seasonal and liquidity is very low.

I'm in TH now. You could send it to me and I'll hold it for you until you get here. safest option for you......

Keep UK bank account open, don't bring all your money over in one go, consider keeping at least some investments in the UK, buying properties for rent in a market you are unfamiliar could be an expensive mistake.

Big money, alwaays Talk to agent ..

Never close

Your home country bank accounts you always need a plan B. Also the exchange rate has dropped 10% recently.
