Hey guys, I’m coming to Thailand on a 2-month visa and running into an issue finding a condo; most places only offer 6 or 12-month contracts.

I’m a digital nomad, so I was wondering if it’s possible to extend or switch to a longer visa after arriving in Thailand? That way I could commit to a longer lease.

Would really appreciate any advice or experiences

thanks! 🙏

Need advice on condo renting

Hey everyone,

I just received my DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) and am looking to rent a condo as soon as possible. My budget is roughly $1,000–$1,700 (approx. 35,000–60,000 THB) per month.

Does anyone have recommendations on the best way to proceed? Specifically:

* Do I need an agent?

* Is the rental market in Thailand prone to scams?

* Any advice on how to find a high-quality, hassle-free place for my budget?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Best,

Emil

Lots of posts about buying/investing in Thailand.

This article (just a screen dump) shows it’s a rocky road.

In my humble view, invest in the market you know and mostly that’s your home country.

Up to you

👍😉

Not sure if this is the right page, but i wanted to ask if there is anyone on here who owns a condo here on koh Samui. We are looking to possibly buy one at the Bay Condominiums near Bangrak, and have a few questions regarding how much we can expect to rent it out at and taxes both here and in Australia that are not being answered well enough by the realestate companies.

If anyone can help that would be great.
