Introduction

Thinking of investing in real estate in Thailand? Here’s the best property developers in Thailand that you should consider.

Investing in developing countries can be difficult for foreign investors who are unfamiliar with local developers. Developers may be found advertising their projects in major Southeast Asian cities such as Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, and Ho Chi Minh City.

Foreign investors have flocked to Thailand, where condo prices have skyrocketed, notably in Bangkok. In today’s premium developments, you may expect to pay up to THB 500,000 per square meter. Purchasing a condo is frequently a large financial investment, therefore choosing a reputable developer is more vital than ever.

Fortunately, Thailand offers a large number of publicly traded developers with decades of expertise, solid track records, and hundreds of finished projects. In this article, we’ll look at some of the largest, most reputable, and best property developers in Thailand.

12 Best Property Developers in Thailand

1. Pruksa Real Estate

Pruksa Real Estate, like most other developers, was formed in 1993 and is based in Bangkok. The firm primarily concentrates on developing inexpensive condo buildings, but it has expanded into the luxury market and now also serves the health and commercial property industries.

Pruksa has shifted its focus to international markets in recent years, with completed and off-plan projects in Thailand, India, and the Maldives. Pruksa recorded yearly revenue of THB 44 billion (about USD 1.5 billion) in 2018, nearly matching its 2016 record.

Owning a Property in Thailand as an Expat

Foreigners or expats, including US citizens, are not permitted to purchase and legally own land in Thailand. Only freehold tenures for condos and strata-titled offices are available to foreigners.

Foreigners can easily get freehold ownership of condominiums in Thailand. Foreigners are permitted to hold 49 percent of the units in a condominium complex under Thailand’s Condominium Act of 1979. As a result, it is the most popular choice among foreign residential property purchasers in places like as Bangkok, Pattaya, and Phuket.

Units may be purchased for as cheap as THB 1.5 million (around USD 65,000). If you want to buy a 1-2 bedroom flat in a new project in Bangkok’s core regions, expect to pay at least THB 4-6 million.

Thailand is one of the few developing countries where both Thais and foreigners are exempt from paying an annual property tax. UAE, China, and Vietnam are among Asian nations that do not have a property tax.
