Hello my friend, I am thinking to go to Bangkok at the end of this years, would you recommend to try find a place in On Nut? I would like to find something not so expensive in a good place. Thanks for your help!
@@LivingOverseasTVcould you tell me the condominium that ying rents as that meets my budget while the fact it's a local favorite. I would be happy residing at that location. I'm 59 years old on a budget. Thank you
Ying, thanks so much for giving us a tour of your place and sharing information about the neighborhood. Good luck with your TH-cam channel: @YingOnTH-cam
We all know you were the best part of the video Ying 😂 he was very lucky to have you in such an informative video - loved your place and the great neighbourhood and gym.❤
I really like how you went more in-depth with the neighborhood tour. It gives a nice overview in addition to the apartment details. It was nice to see some specific meal prices, too. Thanks!
When checking out condo prices in Thailand, always ask the unit per baht price for water and electric. Many places offer cheap rent and get you with the high amenity bills.
This. I have been quoted "this is the government rate" from 6 different landlords and they all said something different. Some said as low as 4, others claimed it was 12 baht :D
I lived in Bangkok for one year, I stayed close to Silom and paid about 300 USD a month with a pool and a gym. This was back in 2015, great time. I miss it.
New condo units are 30sqm so they can sell more of them in a same building block, make more profits. Condos from the 1980s might look a bit old on the outside but usually offer more living space
This is an excellent video with so much precise information for anyone like myself, contemplating multiple trips to Bangkok and surrounding cities. Thank you very much for the high quality content.👍
@dave3k, Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment. I will show more areas like this. You may want to check out some of my older videos also, like this one: th-cam.com/video/_KHT1Cq9v78/w-d-xo.htmlsi=G83WXsAW05rXLl44
$250 ?!! Gosh for the price I was paying for a studio apartment with 2 other people back in 2002. Mind blowing that there are still prices like that in 2024.
@@thesaini 1 year, usually 25% increase for 6months something like that, monthly maybe 50-100% increase but that puts legal implications on the owner providing short stay accommodation without a licence.
Nice Video...and Ying is Gorgeous, and she speaks Excellent English! Maybe you can show us some of the places that are next to the BTS, and maybe some of the larger 2 and 3 bedroom units.
I've stayed in On Nut twice, and will surely stay there again. Could you identify where some of the spots you visit are? Like that first street vender location where you got the chicken / rice and coffees? Or that next market where they had the food choices laid out and the fruit market? I plan to stay in On Nut again next time too and would love to visit those places myself.
@roverdover4449, If you search the names I put up onscreen during the video, they will come up on Google Maps. The Chicken place is delicious and next to Mini Heart Coffee which is on Google Maps. Good Luck!
Yes, this was a very useful video. Looking to visit Bangkok (and parts of Thailand) at some point and think you may have helped me identify a potentially good place to stay. Having essential amenities nearby is a massive bonus. Thanks.
With all the scares in the world today, I'm seriously thinking of moving to Bangkok. I was adopted for Thailand by Swedish parents, grew up in Sweden and currently living in England, UK. Comparing to the States and Europe atm, Thailand seems safe, even if I have to start a new and learn Thai
Wow that place looks so clean and tidy makes my place in the U.K. look like an absolute crapper. I pay more in house rates a month than her place costs per month. I think the U.K. is such a rip off. Great vid . like n sub.
On Nut was the first place I lived at in Thailand. It was a fairly long motorcike taxi away from the Sky Train. Maybe five minutes. The rent was a lot cheaper than $250. It was somewhere around 4000 Baht per month. I ended up moving to an apartment on Lang Suan Rd about six months later. It was 7000 Baht per month and had air conditioning. Excellent location. A short walk to either Chit Lom or Ratchadamri Station.
@@LivingOverseasTV You're welcome. I lived there a long time ago. Prices have changed. The Lang Suan Rd apartment no longer exists. It's been replaced with giant buildings. I watched at least four high rises go up when I lived there. This probably has not changed though. Find the area you would like to live and walk through it looking for rental apartments. Do it with a TRUSTED Thai friend. Have your friend inquire about prices. You will probably get a better deal that way, Once you know the price, go back to the apartment with your friend and have them interpret the lease agreement for you and sign it. This worked very well for me. It probably still works today. P.S. The Lang Suan Rd apartment was within walking distance to the AUA Language Center They had a great course for learning Thai back in the day. It was fun and well worth your time. The place still exists, which is amazing! 179 Ratchadamri Rd, Lumphini, Pathum Wan, Bangkok 10330, Thailand 🙂 www.auathailand.org/en/ P.S. #2 🙂I found my old street on Google Maps: Soi Mahatlek Luang 1 Alley. Maybe my old building still exists!
12:13 Thats an great deal. I find it very convenient that you can freeze your membership. That would be ideal for people who perhaps only live in Bangkok for 6 months of the year.
I enjoyed how you presented your vlog. Very useful information on the cost of renting in Bangkok & the difference between neighborhoods. 👍 Wow, the gym is amazingly awesome & so big with so much different equipment & options to join classes 🏋♀️💪
The apartment looked perfect and I also liked the area. I like how they have wide steps into the pool. Prices how changed since I was there a long time ago but still pretty reasonable. Hopefully I can spend a month or 2 after I finish raising my son.
Hi from Orlando, Florida. I’m a new subscriber and enjoyed the video. I am trying to decide between Japan and Thailand for my birthday next year. Thailand seems very affordable.
Nice tour, it’s different from the Pattaya videos.. Ying seems like a nice person. I’ll check her channel Just to help her out with getting clicks. Thanks 🙏
You should I know I am in about six months. I paid $2000 for my condo in Atlanta. You can find a nice flat there for $500 a month you can live off of $1200 a month.
The place around the 2 minute mark near the coffee shop is where I got the worst food poisoning in my life. I was puking outside my hotel for 2 hours. (I had just checked out and trying to move to the next hotel) I couldn't eat for 3 days. Be careful guys.
Did you acclimate yourself for 3 days first before eating local food? Your body needs time to accept the harsh bacteria there. I lived in Thailand for 4 years (worked at the Shangri-La hotels) You must get a shot before you arrive, OR the poor man's prep: eat yogurt or take acidophilus for 2 days while eating "well-cooked" Thai food! The most you will get is slight diarrhea for a day. But if you just arrive and go out to eat you WILL pay the price.
@alvinjohnson2402 Thanks so much for the acclimation advice. I’m saving your points to my notes.📝 @Runeblade484 Yikes! Sounds awful. I’m sorry that happened to you.
Good content! I like all the prices! Great feature. Lets be honest, the prices are interesting! Also, 2k baht per month for the gym is about $50. If my conversion is right. Anyways, thanks!
I've been in Bangkok for the first time nearly a week now. Is it easy to rent an apartment for a month? Doesn't have to be minimum 6 like UK? I'm moving around Thailand. However I like the idea of renting an apartment like this and using nice gym nearby, and the pool is great. Again, Ying is so cute where did you meet her. If I move to Thailand id like to meet a girl like her, who wouldn't!
Hi. I seem to have missed the name of the condominium that we got the tour of. Im living at The Base complex (also in On Nut) which is comparable, but this looks like even a better deal. So... Name of Condo??. Thanks!
I spent months living in On Nut - a great place to live, good food nearby, not too busy and quieter. Loved it!

That's so cheap! I'm looking to visit for a few months, did you use a specific website to find a place to rent?
That flat would be £1800 in London. I think it's time to leave.
And no cold weather here mate. You’ll like that.
Second there
In NYC that would be over $2,000, bare minimum.
$2000+ in San Francisco as well.
Sure the place is small, but crazy what you can get in Bangkok.
Who told you that? With pool+leisure centre and apartment size studio/1bed £4k-£6k+ minimum. Maybe in a crime ridden location you might get £3500
