bkk6060 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 For Jomtien at an average of 2 million b per unit that would be about 350 units. Sounds possible many new projects last year and the newer places have been selling. As bad as it seems the RE market is I hope at some point it turns around makes for an overall healthier economy. They could create a huge boom pretty quickly in sales and prices if they offered mortgages to foreigners. But that will never happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beautifulthailand99 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Jomtiem (if you must live in Thailand) is woefully underrated and cheap given it's cleaning sea winds, infrastructure and transport links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebell Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 All part of the Thai property owning scam. Talk it up and you'll get more suckers reeled in. I'm willing to believe if you overbuild thousands of condos round Jomtien some will outsell other areas. But how many houses are selling? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to other Thai cities it is much better Jomtien has its own micro-climate with winds coming in off the sea and circling around the bay. It can feel fresh and 'clean' in Jomtiem when it feels hot and foetid in Pattaya. My wife has a serious snoring problem in the UK when we stay in our Jomtiem facing 15th floor condo during the high season for 3 months it clears up.

Big 'bisnet' temple but the locals prefer to use the old prefab to do their incense and 99 eggs nonsense. Apparently, it is lucky for 'biznet'. And that's about it you're right !

A lot of Jomtien is built on garbage, in the nineties it was a garbage dump, then they built on it after using the garbage to fill in the swamps where the rain used to go, now they wonder why there are floods!

Halfaboy Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Yes the market is totally hot. Therefore Grand Solaire will be build. From the brochure: Pattaya’s brand new high rise super-project, Grand Solaire brings you executive, five-star splendour at the heart of Thailand’s Eastern Seaboard. Positioned on Thappraya Road Soi 15, the development intersects Central Pattaya, Pratumnak Hill and Jomtien to give absolute convenience and easy access to all of the city’s major attractions and amenities.Grand Solaire features two towers of 67 and 48 storeys each, offering the highest point of elevation in Pattaya City with stunning, panoramic ocean views from the vast majority of units. All of the 3,600 luxury residences on offer feature state-of-the-art interior design elements, comprising decadent marble-styled tiling, luxurious black marble and glass kitchens and premium fixtures & fittings.

It may be decadent but it doesnt even have its own helicopter like the one at the bottom of the same road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mercman24 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 like to say where the floods are in JOMTIEN, i live here and have never seen a flood, only a pool of water at the end of beach road, not like in Pattaya where every sub soi is knee deep in water after a downpour. at this moment my patio doors are open and my from door, a lovely cool sea breeze os blowing right through no need for air con or even a fan,in fact if my front door is not fastened properly, the air pressure realy slams it. love it.

Beggar Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Never ever would buy anything here again. Pattaya has no zoning. AFTER I bought my condo bars opened next to it. Endless noise and nothing can be done against it - you can complain to the police and local government. Just a waste of time. You only can move out. A friend bought a condo in The Base. Thin walls and a lot of noise since this condo complex is used as a kind of hotel too. In the meantime I could tell you many unpleasant stories from other condo owners. I would not buy anything in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is true that Pattaya desperately needs proper zoning, and proper enforcement of said zoning. But complaints made the right way are often successful and can have the desired effect. The trick is to do it the right way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from a big gun me and others have tried everything that is possible during the last years. Some bars have more power than condo owners. And Pattaya seems to promote bars. They build more and more even if they don't have more and more customers. What should the sex tourists do here at a place without prostitution.
