Hello, I am trying to find a long stay condo, I see agents here ask for a booking fee which is first month rent without getting any contract signed or other paper. Also, two different agents, one asked that this booking fee to be transferred to the owner directly and the other asked to send it to the agency bank account.

It is very strange to me to transfer money without any confirmation, anyone some advice here? 🙏

Hi everyone. I’m looking to rent a condo for 1 year contract in Bangkok, the area of Phraya Thai. I have had the run around from many Agents and in the end they say the condo has been rented. First thing they ask the price and where I’m from. As soon as I tell them they say that I can increase the price. And after, they charge me booking fees (which is a total of 1 month)even though I say I can put the deposit right away and that I don’t need the booking. I’m very confused, sad, overwhelmed. Does anyone know of an agent that is trustworthy? I need to move out of my airbnb by April 17. Thank you.
