- This fantastic 1 Bedroom 16th Floor Seaview Unit is available in Foreign name. Looking over the Gulf of Thailand, with walkways right through to the end of Jomtien Beach.
All information on this magnificent property is available in the Video, for further information please contact Nong: MKREOceanView@Gmail.com
I think renting is the way to go as a foreigner. You have the ability to try many properties and locations around Thailand and S.E Asia and the cost is very reasonable without committing to one spot.
Funny I was doing the maths on that today. I bought my unit in 2011 for 4.15m. Working out an average rent of 23k per month I would have paid out just over 3.3m. I bought off plan. I can't imagine moving to anywhere else. I also like being able to make the unit the way I like. I do think there are pros and cons to each side, but I think if your plan is long term the purchase route makes more financial sense 🙏🙏
@@DavidAndNong Yes I can see that side of the argument as well. Everyone has different goals and desires at various stages of life. Not everyone is the same.
@@DavidAndNong David, have there ever been any Thai movements, political or social, that seek to limit foreigner influences? My concern about dropping bucks on long-term accomidations would be should there be a political ground-swell to prevent foreign ownership and or influence in their country; nationalist movements pick up momentum from time to time. But, Jez, that unit and site is absolute heaven-on-earth. I'd be more than happy to walk that beach for the rest of my days. What a dream.
Enjoyed the video. If only I was a rich man. Have you any plans to show any affordable rental condos in Pratumnak? After many visits to Pattaya only discovered that fabulous beach and the Pratumnak area on my last visit. Will return for sure and would love to live there.
My thoughts, and really just how I feel. Tourism and property ownership in Thailand has played a massive part in the growth of this country. Covid made that even more apparent. Personally I have no qualms, but it's what you think and feel that matters. I don't lose any sleep at night over it with both my Mum and I owning our units here 🙏🙏
Hey David, not sure how I missed seeing this video earlier!. Agree about the other things to do. The Elephant Jungle Sanctuary, Tiger Park and Temple of Truth all worth a visit.
Beautiful place .brilliant view.Prefer to rent really . Cheers David
Lovely place that 😊
Some people like to live in one property forever and some like change.
Personally I'd rent and probably move every few years.
Having said that, that is an excellent location...
Love the condo and location even more. Spend many a day wandering down there watching fisherman or guys looking for treasure, and in the evening a popular place to sit and eat your tea.
Def the area I want to settle and this building ticks all the boxes for me.
That’s my PCX parked up 😀
Yes the area is one of the best areas for sure, especially for those who love beach walks and the associated cooling breeze. You catch any more sun down there you may get mistaken for a local 🤣🤣
Yep . Was in soi 5 for 3 months last winter. First week I walked all the way to Jomtien to get the baht bus , but quickly changed that to a shorter walk up and later even hired an electric bike. Good region with a few good resto's . Will try next winter to stay again 3 months , maybe more if immigration allows it.
Interesting video of this condo and building, but sadly beyond my resources.
Great location and a fantastic sea view property. Thanks for that.
So polite, even apologises for the weather. Top lad.
Thanks Dave yes what a beautiful condo fantastic way to start the day walking little friday on the beach I'm jealous but the heat is to much for me and my Thai wife loves the Australian climate
Beach looks great. I really enjoy swimming and taking walks on the sand. Absolutely love inside this building , big room and amazing views. Pool open 24/7?? Are you buying?? 2 Words Absolutely Outstanding
Lovely eh Drew. Pool isn't 24/7.....it has to be controlled or else naked parties all night. Not buying, we have a one bed, but with all Nongs clothes we need something bigger 🤣🤣
Nice place!
Nice apartment. Beautiful views, BUT, putting sliding doors around the bed doesn't make it a "1 bedroom" when it is still in the main living room!
It is a Studio. 100%.
I thought the exact same but thats a common thing for saying its a1 bedroom but im 100% with you. Plus, did I hear they want basically 180k US for that place? Thats insane.
@@keithd1219round 167K at todays rate Not insane at all, that’s what property of this kind sells for here.
Land prices pretty much dictate everything in connection to property prices here. A typical 1 Rai (1600 sqm) plot in Pratumnak starts at 50 million baht. To build a condo (with the % of green area that is required now) a 2 Rai plot is required. These are as rare as hens back teeth. That along with the beachfront location make this one of the uppermost premium locations. Central Pattaya is higher of course, with a 1 Rai plot on Soi 7 costing 88 million thb. (That was the price 8 years ago). Some of the new builds in Jomtien are asking way over the price per sqm, that this place demands, for, in my opinion a much less desirable location. 🙏🙏
It's a common issue with tall buildings, some box in the bedroom but I think this way is pretty innovative. You wake up to the fantastic views direct from your bed. Some owners put curtains up inside, there was also an option to put in glass that turned dark with the flick of a switch (think tomorrow's world) but it was pretty costly 🙏🙏
@@keef6586 Well thats a shocker to me. I guess thats the price to pay for beach front in pattaya. Moot for me as I would never own or live in pattaya region but I like to see shows on real estate trends.
Thank you for showing! We search for something like this, if Iwill finish my work
I love it there. I’m on the 15th floor. One bedroom 72sq meters
Is one of the best locations around, quiet but plenty close by 🙏🙏
What a view!
Isn't it great, deposit was taken on it today 🙏🙏
Have a nice day in Pattaya 🤗😊🤙❤️🏖🏝🌴🌊
Much better David, very nice condo.
Variety is the spice of life 🤣🤣
A very nice option.
Thanks !
Nice view and no chance of being inducted into the Pattaya flying club! 🤣
Looking at all that exercise equipment in the gym would cause me to break into a sweat!! Would probably need a couple of beers followed by a nap to get over it!! 🤣
Don't forget the Cheeseburger and fries to ease the stomach Alan 🤣🤣
@@DavidAndNong Good point!!! 🤣
Nice!
coming from scotland i always associate these concrete towers with gadgies and the unemployable,i dont care what they look like inside i would never consider buying one,i like to live near the ground preferably a house with a garden, scottish snob 555555
I just watched a property video on YT for the highest and most expensive apartment...gadgies made most welcome www.entrepreneur.com/business-news/the-worlds-highest-apartment-is-on-sale-for-250-million/435634 🤣🤣
No doors to the bathroom ....When your Thai girlfriend takes one of those som tum dumps it’s going to blow out the whole studio not just the bathroom.
STUDIO is not really a one-bedroom.
That was how it was presented by the developer. At 54 sqm it is still a good sized unit 🙏🙏
I wonder if there is a harbor, and how much pier slip fees would be? I'd be happy to live on a boat.
Do you have a condo in Pratumnak David ? Would you recommend it ?
Yes I stay on Soi 6, for me it's ideal, some prefer closer to the town but for me it has everything I need 🙏🙏
🙂
thanks for the real estate videos, so i don't own land as a foreginer just the condo??
The land is owned by the condominium, which, you as the owner would officially own part of the 49% but the majority is still Thai owned (51%) 🙏🙏
@@DavidAndNongBy the way...Aaround 2 years ago i was in Hua Hin , seen 3bedroom villas with pool, 150 sqm for around 7 milion bhat. Probably not possible now.
Cheap Charlie’s look away 😉
Don't worry, I will have a CC special coming soon 🤣🤣
This is for cheap Charlie’s buddy. It’s only 5 million baht.
@@jz3689 waste of 5m some people can drop it but a large percentage can’t living on a budget
What a terrible design. Long and narrow rooms are so poor.
There's a condo to the right across the road called Sugarhill or something simular.
That is proper luxury and absolute beachfront.
3 bed, you'd not get much change out of 50 million baht.
Yes as units got taller and slimmer compromises in design had to happen. I had one listed in the building you mention, I think around 28m which is serious coin 🙏🙏
You’re comparing apples and oranges in terms of budget.
A condo @ Sugarbeach, as you say will be Iro 50 million. It’s almost as close to the beach albeit fronted by the old show room across the road.
54m3 in that area with that sea view on a building of that quality which is affordable to many people.
Not hard to see why David chose to feature it.
If you are happy to live in 1 room with 1 window, good luck to you. Other than the view it is horrible.
It'd be a decent hotel room for a week or 2.
Not a place to live in.
@@timwalker2458Everyone has different priorities and a budget. Put them together and you pick the best place you can. If 5.7m is your budget, you’re priority is a fantastic sea view in a quality build then this place ticks the boxes. In addition to that it’s a great location for those who want to be outside of the manic Pattaya but close enough to enjoy when they want.
Obviously, if you’re priority is windows and bigger living space there are plenty of other condos that tick the boxes that are older and more inland.
It's a gamble renting or buying a small condo. The potential problem is noisy neighbours. Even in a nice looking place like that.
Which condo would you recommend that is economical, close to the beach, many restaurants and night market near by in Jomtien? Thanks.
Jomtien will have several that would suit your needs, but the price will be higher. Maybe somewhere like Rimhad, closer to beach costing more, other side of 2nd road a bit cheaper. 🙏🙏
Cracking view from that balcony. Bit rich for me tho. 👍👍
Nice unit, I prefer/need more space personally. Anything with this type of seaview is going to be over the average condo price per sqm 🙏🙏
You said he is a Canadian chap. You then said he`s a lovely chap. So which is it?
He's now a lovely Canadian and wealthy chap as he just took a deposit on the unit today 🤣🤣
@@DavidAndNong Lovely AND Canadian? Be honest David,are you on the crack man?
Very beautiful, you're a class act. I assume you don't need the money however really suits your style
Also reduces the chance of getting knocked off that bike !!!!!!
Bhidio math 👍
David is there a overhang on the deck that keeps the sun from glaring in ? Or was it just the time you were there?
The balcony is deeper than the norm, so the floor of the unit above provides partial shade depending where the sun is 🙏🙏
@@DavidAndNong Thanks, always interesting condos.
The only problem I see with ownership I thailand is the potential annoyance of a neighbouring condo being used a short term holiday rental, having a monger neighbour bringing company back in the early hours?
Most of the condo's, this one especially, does not allow rentals of under a month . We've lived in the same condo for almost 12 years, one year short term rentals started appearing, it was quickly nipped in the bud 🙏🙏
@DavidAndNong Thanks Dave do you rent?
I have a couple of rental units, but just in our building 🙏🙏
Which condo unit are you in ?
Too loud background music
I will try to adjust next time, or increase my own volume
Looks amazing
