    I don't plan on moving over full time , it's still a holiday destination for me , albeit one that I intend to spend around four months of the year in 

    I'm not sure I could spend that time in just one place , on my holidays I like to move around 

    neighbours ... in a condo block you can't choose who lives next door to you - the place might be let to Air BNB types in perpetual holiday mode with no consideration for others ... at least if you rent you can move on ...

    same for the upkeep of the building / facilities if you are not happy easy to find somewhere else 

    visa rules - keep changing 

    On the other hand ...it would be nice to have a base , where you could keep clothes and home comforts , plus it would encourage you to not go out every night ( hotels rooms can be claustrophobic after a while ) 

    next few years I think it's hotels for me , I might look to rent a condo in the future , but I'm pretty sure I will only ever rent ....

    i like eyenitnoy system. he still rent low cost rose house & built own gogo pad @thai condo place.

    So guys what would/have you done regarding renting or buying a property in Thailand. I've just done a quick calculation based on renting at 20K per month (thats what i reckon we would be paying for our house if we were renting) and as we have been living in our house for 12 years we would have paid in rent 2,880,000 bht.

    The house with furniture cost 4.5M so we're still out of pocket and it will take a further 6.75 years to break even but of course we have the capital value of the house, well wifey does lol

    Whats your thinking ?

    buy thailand prospects good

    Just had a message from an owner of a very famous bar/sports bar. It’s closing this month and all fixtures and fittings are for sale. First come first served.
    I don’t think it’s been announced yet so please forgive me if I don’t say where it is just yet.
    This one came out of the blue and surprised me as it’s fully operational and even booking live events this month.

    le pub. no that place not sport bar.
