Agreed.  I am looking to rent (a house) long-term.  It should be a buyers' market but daily I see ludicrous prices being asked. Rather than suffer a loss of 'face', landlords would suffer months of no income.

Those are advertised prices......I think once you show a genuine interest and make an offer the price will come down.....our condo was 26,000 pm....got it down to 17,000 pm....... if I were any good at negotiating I am sure I could have got him down further,

17,000....?.........No doubt they would have gone for 12,000 as desperate as landlords are....

buy low, sell high.  

 

do you really think prices will go much lower?  

 

decades ago i bought places for about 8 million baht. sold them for 15 million.  they all went to over 20 million.....well, you can't be perfect.

 

when someone says "goodbye" ONE YEAR after COVID....well, we are near the bottom.

 

the sheep are always, always, always wrong...usually because they have no money and only hope for disasters...

 

look around the world.  many good places to invest now.

Yes kick them when they're down seems to be your tactic, looking at this and your previous post.

 

Hope they give you a run for your money once this is all over

I'm only paying 11k/month for the mortgage on my new 3 bedroom house in Chiang Mai.

I thought Pattaya was supposed to be cheap, or is that a multi-room condo with it's own infinity roof top pool?

Central Bangkok, excellent management, ultra clean and tidy, infinity pool 39th floor, gym, games room, party room, library, golf simulator......our room (one bedroom) is quite small but high spec, well designed, only the two of us.....happy to pay that level of rent for the facilities, which we use every day.

It seems we are reading every week about the Doom and Gloom reality 

In Pattaya

Then the Tourist board comes up with ideas to say the foreign tourist will return  soon 

Until the Quarantine restrictions are lifted or the vaccine  is given out to the Thai population

The Thai tourist board  can only dream of what could be
