Looking to rent an Apartment in Bangkok City for multiple months, but thinking of using Airbnb..how much would I pay in premium? As an example if an apartment is say 1000$ pm, how much would this be listed for on Airbnb? I'm doing this because I don't want to commit to 12 months or pay a deposit..and want the assurance and flexibility of moving at will. Thoughts?

If I'm getting a Non-O retirement visa should I book one place for the initial 90 days and wait until I actually get the 1 year extension after my money has been transferred to the Thai bank for 2 months...or book a place for a month or so and look for a permanent place before I get the extension.

I know it's a little risky signing the 1 year lease before I get the actual 1 year extension. Has anyone done this? The Airbnbs are a ripoff and I already know the complex I'd want to live in.

Is it even possible to sign a 1 year lease before I get the 1 year extension? What are the other pros and cons? Thanks!

EDIT: I'm also looking into lease takeovers when I get there, anyone know of any good groups on here for that?

Coming to Hua Hin Jan 16 with the evisa from USA (assuming it is approved by then) Will set up bank account to move to retirement visa. Can I do a short term rental to look for a house to buy (in my Thai wife's name) while in process for the 1 year extension, or do I need to have a long term rental to get that long term visa?

Also, my mother will also be doing the same. Do both our names need to be on the rental contract?

TIA

Hey guys, I am in BKK until Sunday in order to find my next apartment.

Can anyone recommend me good condos near the BTS/ fruits markets/ parks that allow short term rental (1 month) ?

I tried Airbnb, nothing interesting available at a reasonable price.

Thanks so much for your precious help !
