Owning a house in East Pattaya

[thegrogmonster 101]

some of these post has got me thinking , I am paying 25,000 baht a month for a furnished 2 bedroom house. at royal park in jomtien. it is located right off of jomtien road. I know I am paying to much .I rent through KCR home finder. The manager tells me i am paying for location . He also tells me when the new airport is completed more people will come to pattaya. I have a retired friend that runs a dive shop and he tells me the housing market rent or buying is getting slower and slower and the baht is over inflated the same as the realestate market. I found it near imposible to find a house to rent for 15000 baht . I think you are going to have to go it alone due to the agenices dont want to show you a good deal. they will advertise some houses in that price range but mysterously there alway taken when you enquire about them.If anyone knows of an agency that will show me where i can find a decent deal let me know please .

 

Most of the shops like Friendship and Foodland have notice boards that have houses for sale and rent.

 

This is how I bought our (wife's) house. No real estate agents to deal with, just make sure if you are going to sign a rental agreement that you have it translated into English
