    I noticed many people are from the UK here so maybe someone could help with her/his knowledge, experience.

    I would really appreciate that.

         I lived, worked in the UK for some years (self-employed) and recently went back to Thailand.

    I am not a British citizen but was granted settled status (5 years) in the UK.

    I have no UK address anymore. In my HSBC UK bank I still have my old UK address and I know I have to update it asap.

    I am not sure if I can have open bank account while not living in  the UK. Heard many diffrent stories.

    In my bank account I see that it  is possible to update to the address abroad but I am not sure how the bank will react later.

    I still have money in my account so obviously I will not be happy if they put my bank account on hold.

    Anyone knows something about it or could advise what to do in this situation.

     

    If I were you I would definetely opened an offshore bank account. For insctance, in Cyprus. No taxes and safety way to save more money for yourself. It's better to do it with the help of special financial services that can track everything and solve possible problems. I was working with this https://www.advancedconsulting.cy/ company . These guys helped me to open a banck account quickly and easy.

    To me it seems a really bad idea to buy a condo if you don't have any more for a bit of downpayment to be honest. Sounds like if sh*t hits the fan, you'd be in big trouble. Or do you have some pension and plan to pay the mortgage with your pension? I guess in that case you have some security in terms of income.

     

    The only mortgage in Thailand that I found was MBK guarantee, but they require a 50% downpayment and it seems the costs are really high. I read about it here https://www.advancedconsulting.cy/ . Not very attractive. Seems to me this company has virtually no risk and can basically print money with those terms.

    They do claim to be very easy in accepting people though. Don't need work permits and such. 

    Yeah, man. I agree with you that this service is pretty good for such operations. My friends are clients of this service. It's better to pay extra money, but don't worry about this stuff.
