Can a foreigner own property in Thailand?

Yes. Foreigners can purchase condos as Freehold subject to quota, and also use long-term leasehold structures. We advise on transaction structure for both primary and secondary markets.

Off-plan often allows entry at an earlier price with installment plans. The resale market offers a ready property with clear ownership history.

Phuket combines developed infrastructure, international schools, private hospitals, and high service levels. We help select areas and projects that fit your family's lifestyle.

In most cases, yes. We support clients outside Thailand and arrange the remote purchase process.

Do you help after key handover?

Yes. We advise on management, rental, and possible resale of your property.

Can a foreigner buy a villa if land in Thailand is not sold to foreigners?

Yes, through separate rights: the villa is registered as Freehold, full ownership, while the land under it is taken on a long-term lease for 90 years. This is the most common and effective method for foreigners in Phuket, and we arrange it for most of the villas we select for clients.
