Definitely rent I think. Even with discounts on sales the maths doesn't make sense, and that's leaving aside the capital risk and how illiquid the second hand condo market can be in Thailand.

If you're definitely there for life - maybe. But even then I'd argue it would make way more sense to invest your money in a much more stable and less risky property market and use the proceeds of that rented property to rent in Thailand.

Nice to see something in Soi Nanai, it brought back memories. We stayed they a few years back and we enjoyed the expat feel that it had. It has got a lot bigger since those days, as has Patong. I think Kata is much the nicer place to be, but of course transport is a must!
Thanks for showing us what’s on offer, very wise advise to try before you buy. Being a bit older, we would always rent now, but Patong has become too big and noisy for us now, so Kata would be a perfect choice.

The kata apartment prices are still way over the odds for rent and sale, you could half those ‘covid prices ‘ .
Ho pefully the prices fall realistically all across Phuket over the next year. I think we’ll be seeing empty buildings all over the island for some time to come

Hi Richie and Maybelle. Great review. Thanks. Regarding the lawn you need to aerate it with a fork to a depth of 5cm ( 2" ) then apply a lawn fertilizer or Lawn builder and water consistently every day. Do not mow until it is about 7-8 cm (3-4") high.🙏 😎

Thanks for taking the time and giving us an idea of where we could stay, if and when we get a chance to visit Thailand again. On the other hand I have to admit, it is disgusting to see how much we are overpaying for the dumps we are renting in comparison. Even when considering the income difference, at least there is a chance of getting a place without having to compete with numerous other eagerly renters outbidding each other. I can’t wait to get my second covid shot and book my flight outta here. See you soon at the coffee shop.

In future videos would it be possible to also give the body corporate fees as this makes a huge difference to your ongoing expenses.

When you can rent for peanuts buying in Thailand is insane.

My knowledge of buying real estate in Thailand was always you cannot own land in Thailand if you are not a Thai national, for sure you can take a 99 year lease, but own outright? I think it is a wise decision from the Thai government. The Japanese could not invade Hawaii, so later they bought it😎

They all seemed really nice and decent. I really liked the one with the balcony right in front of the pool, I liked the look of the building. Sounds like a real hassle to buy unless your married to someone from there. Thanks for the tours. Cheers!!

Would you be able to do some higher end viewings with prices. Thanks for the video it was very interesting

Author — Peter Thermocline

What are the higher end villas like with more of an unobstructed seaview, have they come down in price?

Author — Peter Thermocline

Prices in Thailand, especially the tourist areas will fall a lot more.
I have seen prices fall already by 40% in Phuket.
Watch in 2022.

The two properties in Patong i know…its not covid Price…normally Price for Rent and Buy. Better places in Hasipp Pee Road in Patong ( on the Hill) but Nanai Road have many good Restaurants, Cafés and Mini Shop as 7 Eleven, Tesco Express, etc…and Neal Banzan Market…Cheap Streetfood in the evening.

There’s a lawn spray paint you can use on the lawn, chemically safe etc, turns it green instantly, very popular in America where this is a common issue 👍🏻
