What additional costs do you incur when buying a condo in Thailand beyond the purchase price and CAM fees?

Tony **********

By definition, when buying a condo, you are buying the interior walls and floorspace. The building and land are owned by the association. There can be other "common" areas that are part of the association too such as a gym, underground parking, etc you never really own anything with a condo. You buy "rights".

Can we exit Thailand to Malaysia by car to renew our visa exempt status?

Tony **********

If you're purpose is border run, I wouldn't take car across. If you're going as tourist, then probably okay with correct paperwork and insurance.

What are the correct financial requirements for obtaining a retirement visa in Thailand: is it 800,000 THB AND 65,000 THB income, or OR?

Tony **********

It is kind of an AND. You'll need 800k in account to get your first year extension. You can start to show the 65k/month over that year. But you have to have 12 months of 65k and every month following. Miss a month and your start all over
