  • Exploring Chiang Mai Condos! Join me today as I check out two fantastic rental options in the charming Wat Ket/Nong Hoi area, just south of the old city! We kick things off with a revisit to a classic room rental spot that stole hearts a year ago. After a stroll around, we dive into the exciting details of two condos up for rent in this vibrant part of Chiang Mai.
    We take a leisurely walk around the neighborhood and explore the local vibes. Along the way, we stumble upon two tempting condo rentals. One of them, I must admit, got me seriously considering a move.

    Hey mate, love the videos. I'm currently residing in Hua Hin and getting the itch to travel to some different parts of Thailand. I was thinking about going over to Chiang Mai for the weekend to experience the city during burning season and see if I can tolerate it. I was also interested in trying my luck with the ladies over there. In one of your previous videos you mentioned using apps to meet a few. Could I inquire as to which ones you use? Could you recommend some that aren't freelancer heavy. Cheers mate.

    Thanks Wayne for the nice guided tour . The second place with two beds looks good . Could bring family members and an animal too. The bicycle idea sounds good too. I guess you get what you pay for , the 5k for your place considerably cheaper and more attractive price wise.

    Yes it is importent to go for the "feel" of a place and area I think even if the actuall room is not to big but it was very nice with bedroom. We are looking for a 3 month contract maybe not so easy? We stayed at Crystal Place other side of parking to Airport plaza 10 month, close to so much, walked 45 min to school at Pantip. Loved it but expensive, think we payed 11.000, 2 bedsits made to 1. 7 th floor. Miss it but again to expensive. Thank you very much for showing us around!

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, the area and feel are really important to me. I don't mind paying more if it's in the area I want. 3 months are still available in Chiang Mai, but they are getting harder to find. Thanks.

  • @HairyPixels
    @HairyPixels 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Why is the second one so expensive? 10,000 for just a tiny room? I didn't know Chiang Mai is getting so expensive.

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Some places are 1000 and some 20,000. Just depends what the owner wants to charge. Chiang Mai still dirt cheap.

    • @WilliamFluery
      @WilliamFluery 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yep the 10k was very high for a tiny “hotel” room…but I laughed at your “Chiang Mai is getting so expensive” comment. THB 8,000 place ($230) is very cheap for what you get.

  • @kingelvis1977d
    @kingelvis1977d 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    No wonder you were reluctant to show us the first apartment because that was the pick of the bunch , a great size and only £175 pound a month , and you were right it looked really clean 😊😊😊 . The second two both looked too small for a long term stay .

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yes, I was really thinking about moving to this place and not showing it. But I decided not too. It's one of the places I really liked and will be great for someone. I agree, the second one was well over priced.

  • @Oggiwara1
    @Oggiwara1 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Thanks for sharing! There is lots of cheap options in Chiang Mai. But these was expensive for what you get in my humble opinion. Add on the almost 50% markup for the electricity, and the total cost is on par with a small house in Chiang Mai area or, a nice 35 sqm. condo unit in Bangkok with all the amenities in the world...

    • @WalkAboutWayne
      @WalkAboutWayne  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The second one definitely was. I wouldn't say Sema was expensive. Sure, you can find similar for 5000. I can find a 3 bedroom house for 2500 if I wanted, but I wouldn't want it. I could also go and get a room for 1,500 , but I wouldn't want that either.
      All depends what you want really. You could get Sema down to 6 too (Probably)
      Thanks

    I would get the 8,000 THB location in a heartbeat even if it was further out. It was very spacious, clean and super inexpensive. I would get a gas cooking unit and shop at the public market. I would get a motorbike for transportation. I could easily live on $1,000/month and let my investments grow for my kids and grandkids.

    No need to even look at apartments in Thailand, in this pricerange thry're all the same, so just look at the area/neighborhood. They're nothing but concrete boxes built for low-expectation westerners, of which there are many. The depressing hallway, like in a cheap hotel, leading to a non-descript entrance, leading into a narrow dark area with a bathroom/shower/storage (tiny), followed by an area referred to as a 'kitchen', which is basically a sink with a mini fridge next to it...then onto the boring bedroom w/o a closet in most cases, oh and the highlight for the average westerners is that awesome stamp-size balcony that is too small for even a chair, and of course useless because of the noise from the a/c unit on the wall. Oh yes, PARADISE in those 'Golden Years' and something to look forward to for sure...Cheers...
