I'm a real estate investor, owned 14 single family homes in USA. Own 4 condos here in Chiangmai and 2 houses. Think I have a pretty good grasp on property. AND yes condo rentals are soulless compared to owning your own land and stand alone 😔 house. But as they say " UP TO YOU DUDE! "

@Robert *********
Just a heads up if you decide to sell your house. It usually takes at least 6 months or more. That's just the way their market works. Condos if price correctly will sell almost immediately.

I created digital photos. But when I arrived, I had some of them printed out and framed in beautiful frames for very little money.

@Robert *********
You can Sign a long-term lease on the land and can own the house. Or you can be like me and be married to a Thai citizen who holds the land paper in her name. Condos are for travelers and soulless... 😞

Nick MuayPlam If you want an efficient will that cannot be tampered with. You need to certify your passport and its translation With your embassy and the local thai government. You then write your will and have A certified translation of it.

Filed with the local district office. All of this can be done at very little cost, Translations are between 300 and 500 T. H. B. If I'm not mistaken, the file fee was actually less than 100 thb. As you said you don't have to do this this is not the only way, But this is the correct way to see to it that your thailand family receives the money and property that you want them to have. And it's gonna cost you less than 2000 thb total .a small price to pay to insure your family gets what you want them to get,quickly and efficiently. Obtw I followed the coaching of a Thai lawyer to do this for my family:)

oh for crying out loud... You don't need a lawyer to do a will, but you do need to do it correctly. 55 1st of all, you have to send off to the embassy and get your Passport.

Translation in certified.. Second of all, you need to write your will and thensertify a translation of your will into the thai languag. Thirdly you go to your local political office and file the will.
