What you actually hand over

The rent is the headline. These are the numbers that decide whether you can move in next month.

Monthly rent

฿150,000

Bills, our estimate

Electricity, water and internet at government rates. Read the note below before budgeting the low end.

฿12,000 – 22,500 / mo

Two things decide this bill: the thermostat, and who does the billing. If the building re-bills electricity itself, ask the rate per unit before you sign — the government rate is about 4 baht, and re-billed buildings commonly charge 5 to 8. We check this for you on any unit here.

The deposit is held by the landlord, not by us — but we are the ones who chase it when the lease ends. We photograph every room with you on move-in day and keep the file, because the argument about a scuffed wall happens twelve months later.

The real comparison

What ฿150,000 a month buys, next to the train and further out.

Same budget, two different lives. The figures are medians from the 80 homes we currently list on the other side of that choice — not a brochure.

This home

฿600 / m²

250 m² with the walk-to-everything life of central Sukhumvit.

The same ฿150,000 further out

about ฿300 / m²

Roughly 500 m² at the median of our own listings outside the core — more room, further from the train.

The question that settles it

Does most of your week happen near a station?

If yes, this home is hard to beat. If not, tell us where you work and we will send you the other version of the same budget instead.

Tell us where you work

Three things about renting a condo, not a house.

A tower runs differently from a village house, and the differences all show up after you have moved in.

Who fixes the air-con?

The landlord, for anything structural or pre-existing, in the first year of a standard Thai lease. Day-to-day servicing is usually the tenant's. We put which is which in writing before you sign, because “usually” is where the arguments start.

What do the common fees cover?

Building or village fees — security, gardens, pool, gym — are the owner's, not yours. You pay electricity, water and internet directly. We confirm the split for this specific home before you commit to anything.

Can I leave before the lease ends?

A twelve-month lease is twelve months, and leaving early normally costs the deposit — the landlord is within their rights. Some owners will agree to a break clause if a visa or a posting ends; it has to be written in before you sign, because afterwards there is nothing to appeal to.

Bangkok moves quickly and we cannot guarantee a listed home is still free. Message us and we will confirm this one is available before you spend a Saturday on it.
