Is it reliable for China people to buy a house in Thailand?

Is Thailand really that good? The following is a detailed explanation:

1, Thailand lacks everything but land.

Thailand's own population is only about 60 million, and it is a non-immigrant country-no matter how many houses you buy or even marry a Thai, you are an immigrant! Being unable to emigrate means that you are still a foreigner and you can't buy land, villas or apartments. So in Thailand, there will be noble prime locations, but more is a lot of cheap land.

Secondly, most overseas buyers are more concerned about the rental situation. In order to protect the interests of hotels, Thai laws explicitly prohibit the use of apartments for short rent activities such as Airbnb. I suggest that you don't drill legal loopholes with luck. And short rent, if you are in China, you must be subject to the escrow agency-don't expect the escrow agency to have a strong sense of responsibility. After all, dozens or even hundreds of suites are really busy, and maybe your house will be miserable after half a year. Try not to do anything that makes you subject to others at any time, let alone the house.

2. The rental rate of return is not high. The property fee for apartments in Thailand is not cheap. Apartment is generally 45 baht in January, and luxury class is 85 baht in January. If a property agent or a specialized leasing company helps you rent for a long time, it will take one month's rent as the service fee, so you can only take ten months' rent a year.

Secondly, apartments in Bangkok are not cheap at present, and the rational long-term rental rate of return should be around 3%-4.5%, and it would be great to achieve 5%. So don't believe the one-sided words of the intermediary, judge according to your own professional knowledge, lower your expectations and see if you can accept it.

3, real estate speculation can not make quick money. Some people want to wait until the house price rises in a few years. However, due to the lack of housing in Thailand, both foreigners and locals like new apartments. Who wants second-hand goods? Unless you buy excellent land that is about to dry up in elite area+big developer+low starting price+good landscape+reasonable floor+scarce apartment with little competition, you will sell it more easily. To tell the truth, there are very few houses that can meet this condition.

4. Apply the concept of China, but ignore the local situation. The price of apartments along the public transport in Bangkok has always been high, and it is also the most sought-after one. However, not all areas along the bus are suitable for investment. If we apply the domestic concept, the house 700-800 meters away from the station/subway station is not far, but unfortunately the Thai people don't think so. Thailand has a tropical climate, with high temperature and humidity above 30 degrees all year round. The weather is very hot, and they will ride motorcycles for almost 800 meters. This is why within 600 meters of the light rail, it is the most popular location for tenants. Beyond this range, it may not be so popular.

Take chestnuts for example. The 23-kilometer-long purple light rail line from Bang Sue to Bang Yai, the number of apartments opened in the Nonthaburi area next to the line in the first four months of this year is the highest in Bangkok, and there are even a large number of completed apartments along the MRT. However, the current situation is that they cannot be sold or rented, and many China investors are crying in the toilet.

In addition, some investors listen to the intermediary's promise that "the next few tracks will meet" and "the future XX shopping mall", thinking that buying a house now will appreciate in a few years. However, the infrastructure in Thailand is not the same as that in China, and the demand efficiency is not high. The most important thing is the privatization of land in Thailand. It is very difficult to promote infrastructure projects, and sometimes it may not be fulfilled in eight or ten years.

Off-topic, some real estate companies recommend China people to buy real estate in Pattaya in the name of "Oriental Hawaii", which is actually a big pit. This place is a chaotic area in Thailand. At night, there are stations all over the street: princesa+ porn bar +Low foreigner. Good real estate in the city center has long been fried into sky-high prices (for local people), and the rest of the area is even more empty, and the long-term rental market is almost zero. As for the high-speed train from Bangkok to Pattaya, I have four words for you: Without movies, the infrastructure in Thailand is totally different from that in China.

To sum up, although the real estate economy in Thailand is booming at present, it is impossible, feasible and feasible to get rich overnight like in China. However, the property in Thailand is not shared, the property is good, and the rental return rate is indeed much higher than that in China. Especially in Bangkok, a large number of migrants and the national characteristics of Thais who don't save money make the rental group in Thailand very large, with a market, and the rent is naturally higher.

Therefore, when buying a house in a good location, the house price rises slowly, and the rent is profitable every year. This mentality is more suitable for the real estate market in Thailand (Bangkok). Because the pension visa in Thailand is very loose, it is also an idea to buy a small apartment in the south for the winter every year and enjoy the low local prices (many Europeans and Americans or Japanese who buy houses locally are like this). And if you want to buy a house and change hands for hundreds of thousands, this "speculative" mentality is difficult to work in Thailand.
