You’re welcome, I comment on every post relating to laminated DTV sheets because I think it’s hilarious 😆 that people would do such a thing with something that could be printed as needed. But you went one further and opted for A4. Thais love stationary related effort.

Condo renting IS a renters market in Thailand. They have built way too many condo' in most places (with the odd exception). But yes, the industry is prone to deposit scams (though I have never had a deposit taken). However, the solution is to negotiate a 5K deposit which the final eletric, water and cleaning checkout fee come out of. You'll either get roughly about 2k baht back (after fees)( or nothing, which isn't a lifechanging loss. It also really depends on which location and if you want super high end. With that budget you can rent an amazing villa or super high end. Also, I have never taken a 1 year lease in 15 years, most will negotiate on 6 months. Lastly, this season I have taken 2x month long AirBnBs and then a short term condo from a short term FB group, which I have extended the full DTV 6 months, just to show that short term flexible is more than doable if you dont want to lock in for so long.

One big factor is if you enjoy sunrise or sunsets.
