HikeFromLA Posted November 28, 2015 Share Posted November 28, 2015 Moved to Chiang Mai recently, planning to stay here 9 to 12 months a year for 1 to 3 years. I've lived at a guest house on Ratchadamnoen Soi 5 (in the Old City near Tha Phae gate) for 3 weeks now. It's a great place, but I am ready to move up to someplace larger.Here's what I'm looking for: NEIGHBORHOOD --bicyclable (e.g. Old City) --coffee & brekkie nearby --nearby restaurants for supper ENVIRONMENT --Aircon --no mozzies (due to interior-opening front door, or on a high floor, or just dry surroundings) USABLE AS HOME OFFICE --lots of electrical outlets --superb internet --large desk and/or table --desk chair / chairs --thick walls so I can talk on the phone (I'm not a quiet person) TELEVISION --television with lots of channels in English --couch and/or armchair BATH --private bathroom en suite w/ hot water SERVICES (nice to have, not dealbreakers) --linen service --maid service --laundry service Please let me know if you have any ideas!

HikeFromLA Posted December 23, 2015 Author Share Posted December 23, 2015 UPDATE: OK I moved from Soi 5 down to Soi 4. I got the extra space and then bought 4 folding tables and chair to create my own home office. But no aircon, so I still need to move again in coming months. Lowering my standards, all I really need now is aircon, and space for my jerry-rigged home office area. Revising the original post here's what I'm now looking for: NEIGHBORHOOD -- In the Old City or in the area just south of the Old City's Buak Hat Park, or another area that will be okay for bicycling into Old City ENVIRONMENT --Aircon USABLE AS HOME OFFICE -- around 20 square meters -- several electrical outlets -- reasonably thick walls, not the thin ones in some (not all) guest houses BATH --private bathroom en suite w/ hot water TYPE OF PROPERTY Small Apartment, Small House, Big Room in Guest House, Room over Store Once again - please let me know if you have any ideas!

jonesyb Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 This would be an ideal thread for me to ask if anyone knows a good estate agent for rentals in Chiang Mai? I am currently looking for somewhere myself. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HikeFromLA Posted February 14, 2016 Author Share Posted February 14, 2016 This would be an ideal thread for me to ask if anyone knows a good estate agent for rentals in Chiang Mai? I am currently looking for somewhere myself. Thank you I met with the managing director at Chiang Mai Realty in connection with my current search. I don't think we're supposed to put contact info here so I'll try to PM you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
