my Thai family are mostly in the construction industry. So you build however you wish. I’m also from a construction background in Australia.

you are partly right two weeks of rolling in dry season we will never give you the compaction. But saying that if you’re driving in concrete peers .which I’m going to do compaction is not really a problem except for driveways and pathways or a pool areas

If you have just raised you need to rest the land ( as a Thai person will say) for at least 12 months. Before doing anything get a ground survey for compaction as you’ve used fill on the block

I’m Australian living in Thailand under a full retirement visa, you need to report your location every 90 days with a TM30 form if renting private residence. All holiday accommodation are required to do this on your behalf regardless of were you stay. Just never overstay your visa

What country are you from, do you have 800.000 baht to put in a Thai bank account. Doing your application in your country is the best way but allow three months approval time. In country you can get a bank account and retirement visa with no problems for between 15- 30 thousand baht
