I used to live at Sivana Gardens- smaller version, but the same developer next door. They actually have 3 different subdivisons next to one another. These homes are very close to the beach and the road is quiet. One issue I had living there were the constant air bnb rentals/parties, ETC. I rented long term, but both houses on either side were short term rentals. That is one thing to consider if you are looking at a long term home.
I get the purpose of the video but I'm not trying to throw any shade or hate-I genuinely enjoy the content and understand the purpose of the video. However, it's important to clarify that foreigners cannot own land in Thailand. The most common option is leasing the land, typically for 30 years, while owning the house itself. After the lease term expires, unless the laws change, you would need to renew the lease. Unlike in many Western countries where property often appreciates over time, Thai houses tend to lose value immediately after purchase. Additionally, forming an LLC solely to acquire property in Thailand is illegal. Even if you were to establish a business, 51% would need to be Thai-owned. This means that in the event of a dispute with your business partner, they could legally claim your house. Personally, I’d rather avoid the stress and uncertainty that comes with such risks. Personally, I would rather invest $375k in the Dominican Republic, Spain, or Sicily, where foreign ownership restrictions are minimal or nonexistent. I’m sharing this because I don't want anyone to be misled or sold a dream, thinking they can pass down an investment to their children, only to face disappointment later. It's crucial to thoroughly research such investments before making a commitment.
Exactly. Paying a freehold price for a 30 year lease is insane. The only winners are Thai developers. Additionally, the lease extension clause in the lease contract is irrelevant as the maximum lease term that can be registered at the Land Department is 30 years. Also, the enforceability of the lease extension clause is uncertain. Keep things simple. Rent a condo or a house, or buy a condo in the 49% foreign quota, but understand that resale is very difficult.
I am glad you wrote it down so detailed and SPOT ON. Frankly I am getting a bit annoyed with these ‘digital nomads’ that spend a month or two, three and then think they found a new source of income by promoting anything but the truth. They are just in it for themselves only. And loads of people buy it. It’s close to a scam honestly.

Thanks Lloyd for showing these properties. Really liked this, but the extra wide angle of the Go-Pro gave a lot of distortion (fish eye ) that doesnt give a true indication of space, and is hard to look at. Thanks for your videos over the years.
I’ve been on the outskirts of Khao Tao for 3 months, really enjoying it. Getting a car soon to explore areas to build. Will explore south of Khao Tao for that perfect plot. My only complaint for most new complexes is the close proximity to adjacent properties and not enough green space. Otherwise internals are generally laid out to my liking. Re the outdoor showers, I don’t understand why they’re always so far away from the pool. If I want to shower off I don’t want to trek to it, or walk through cut grass. More videos like this around Khao Tao or further south please 🙏
Excellent Property ! Once I make the move I will lease. My property in the USA has doubled in 16 years and waiting another 4 years before I move and fully retire, making to much $$$ right now to walk away at the moment. Have not seen any advantage to owning in a foreign country at this time. My investments make more than any appreciation of a home or a property in SE Asia that I have seen so far. Hope all is well with you and the Fam Lloyd and always happy to see your videos :)
I agree, here in the USA any home I have own will go up and down at times, but if you got in in 2001 your home is worth way more than you paid for it if it is nice :) And you can upgrade each year if your investments are doing well year after year when in Thailand :) Loved your comment dude, well said !
Really enjoyed the video 👍🏻 But just a little critique show more of the Villa and less of yourself because we didn’t get to see the details of the rooms. Take care 🙏

100% correct ✅
W comment! Not to mention the instability in real estate tax for foreigners

Fantastic property. Love it 😍
Very interesting .. Thank you Lloyd and Mandy. Very nice development.
Wow, what a beautiful house. Plenty of room inside and out. Bear would love running around there. Are you actually thinking of buying?

I'd love to see some content showing the background (editing, travel planning etc) stuff you need to do.

Very nice.. the fact you cant own it as a foreign person is a worry though. Is it better to just rent. Thanks for uploading.

Thanks guys 👍
Salt water pool is a chorine pool. The salt is converted to chlorine b the salt water system.
Beautiful property and very good value compared to the UK!
No real wow factor with this property, and the price is comparable to a 1-bed flat in London. Far more than I'd expect for Thailand.
I do not have nearly the capital to afford the lovely properties you have chosen to highlight, but I do like seeing them nonetheless.
Very nice
Really enjoyed the video 👍🏻

What is the point when foreigners CANNOT buy land/home in Thailand. Even if it was $1.
Lovely, but I imagine it would be very hot during to all the concrete surrounds.

LoL....considering foreigners can't even own terrafirma in Thailand, this is pointless😂
375 k in a third world country is insane let’s be more reasonable
Have you ever been to Thailand?
Which cave are you living!
It sure I understand the comment. Thailand is a modern highly disputable country to live. Perhaps visit before passing judgment.

the circumference of the claimed globe earth at the equator is 24901 miles therefore earth completes 1 rotation on it's axis at the equator in 24 hours
the circumference of the claimed globe earth at the poles is 0 miles therefore earth completes 1 rotation on it's axis at the poles in 0 hours
the further away north & south from the equator the circumference of the claimed globe earth becomes lesser & lesser therefore the length of 24 hours ( days + nights ) should become shorter & shorter too
how can there be 24 hours ( days + nights ) at the poles of the claimed globe earth ?
