Asia is a huge area
I'm not sure Thailand is a good option at the moment, the GBP is **** and the Baht is strong

Yes Singapore is a just a work city, can't really even call it a country. I have friends there who make big salaries and they wouldn't even dream of buying there. Most people with any sense work there for a few years, take their savings and GTFO.

Bangkok is pretty overpriced these days. The THB is very strong and the Chinese and Russians buy Condos like crazy, increasing prices significantly.
A lot of condos are maintenance poorly and in 10 years nobody wants to live there anymore.
Also there remain other uncertainties like visas etc...
Living here for almost 15 years, the last thing I would do, is buy a condo. Houses are way way cheaper btw, but foreigners can't own land. At least for me, paying my rent and saving money otherwise is the way to go. Gl!

Wow - I didn't know foreigners can't own land in Thailand. Do you know why that is? Is Thailand trying to prevent a hostile takeover through property acquisition?
Sorry for derailing the thread. Curiosity gets the best of me.

Outside realestate investors would buy it all and build hotels / resorts.

Foreigners weren't entitled to own any kind of real estate here (condominiums included) until the asian crisis in '97. Condo market opened for foreigners back then and prices skyrocketed ever since.

And the main question is where will you live. But, dude, know, that there are a lot of new buildings where you can buy an apartment. For example I bought apartment from there ( this site), because at the construction phase they had a great discount and it was really attractive proposal. I had about half a million and due to discount I saved about 200 k+, so I really had enough money to buy a car  |
