Three things about buying here.
Most of what slows a purchase down is paperwork nobody mentioned at the viewing.
Can I hold it in my own name?
For a condominium, yes, provided the building has foreign quota left — 49% of its total floor area. Land is different and usually means a long lease or a company structure. Where the answer is legal rather than practical, we put you with a lawyer instead of guessing.
Does the money have to come from abroad?
For a foreign-quota condo, yes — the funds arrive in foreign currency and the bank issues the paperwork that proves it. Getting this wrong is the most common reason a transfer is delayed, so we walk through it with your bank first.
What does completing actually cost?
Transfer fee, and then either stamp duty or specific business tax depending on how long the seller has held it. The split between buyer and seller is negotiated, so it matters as much as the rate. We put the agreed split in writing before any deposit.
Bangkok moves quickly and we cannot guarantee a listed home is still on the market. Message us and we will confirm this one is available before you spend a Saturday on it.
