Hi, I'm sure this has been addressed many times. Update: I should edit this. Am looking to purchase a house in Thailand. When looking to purchase property in Thailand, do we get the Thai bank account first before the visa (retirement) and purchase ? The rules keep changing and now I am not sure which order it should be.

If you buy a condo or villa, does that count as the 800k thai baht needed for a visa? I read something that said that once, but never saw it anywhere else, so I wanted to be sure.

Any thoughts on a visa to live there for 6 months in my own condo. And live 6 months back in Australia. Any advice would be great. Cheers I’m 49yrs old. Haven’t bought the condo yet.

Hello everyone,

Can a foreigner, who purchases a condo, get a long-term / resident visa?

Thanks

Now that I have my DTV and my banking setup finalized, I’m starting to seriously explore the real estate market.

I’m considering purchasing a condo as my forever home, but I’ve come across mixed opinions regarding condos and their ability to hold value over time.

Is the concern primarily due to the sheer volume of condos being built, leading to a saturated market? Or is it more about factors like the location, quality of construction, and upgraded finishes that influence a condo’s value over the next 10-15 years?

I’d love to hear your insights and any advice you might have on navigating this decision.

I am looking for a recommendation for a lawyer who can assist us in purchasing a condo and can help with advice on the right visa.

Thanks.

I am reading about the LTR and financial commitment. Assuming Inmajr between 40k-80k $US.I must invest $250k US in Thalland. What about Thai bonds are they good? What other options-?

Hello everyone, great to join you all. We’re thinking of retiring in Pattaya or Jomtiem and buying a Condo there. Can we get some advice on reputable Realty companies to work with? Also the avg price for a 2 bdm 2 bath high floor with view of ocean? Thank you in advance.

Hi,

I’ve been told today that I can’t buy a condo unless I have a retirement visa because I can’t open a bank account without a retirement visa. Is this correct? Thanks in advance.
