Sought-after locations
These are the three most popular places for buyers and tenants of houses in Thailand:
- Phuket, developing beach tourism;
- Pattaya, a resort with excellent infrastructure;
- Bangkok, the capital of the country.
What to buy in Thailand in 2023?
Both apartments and villas in 2023 remain popular with overseas investors in Thai real estate. Residential real estate is suitable for permanent residence, recreation and rental. Apartments are most popular with those who plan to live or set up a rental business in Bangkok, while villas, particularly in Phuket and other seaside locations, are best for lovers of a resort lifestyle.
A villa or apartment?
The quarantine made people in many countries stay at home for a long time. During that period, they realized how difficult it was to live in their apartments. That is why many people began to think about moving to a house with its own land plot, where it would be possible to go out even under the strictest bans. Villas with private courtyards provide this opportunity.
In addition, villas in Thailand are growing in price faster than apartments. The cost of houses with sea views in the country is growing significantly. An important point is the sea view from the house on the first line. Villas and apartments with partial sea views will fall in price in 2023. A partial view of nature means that the sea and coastline are blocked by other real estate. When selling a house with a partial view of the seashore, discounts in the Kingdom can reach 40%. It is profitable for buyers who purchase housing for themselves and are not going to resell it. Investors making money on resale should only consider buildings on the shore or hills that offer endless sea views.
The cost of real estate in Thailand in 2023
Real estate in Thailand grew in price in the first three quarters of 2022, but some of its types became cheaper at the end of the year. Nevertheless, experts expect further growth in housing prices in 2023 primarily through the return of foreign investors and the rise in the cost of construction materials.

What influences prices?
The cost of housing in Thailand is influenced by many factors:
- Location. The cost of the property depends on the location. In Thailand, such places as Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket are the most popular with foreign buyers.
- Area. Real estate with developed infrastructure and beautiful views from the window will cost more than housing in areas, where there is no railway line or metro, few shops, restaurants, schools and so on. The center of Bangkok and developed areas of resort cities are in great demand among investors.
- Apartments in residential complexes with swimming pools, fitness rooms, spas and secured parking are more expensive than apartments without these amenities. This means that the quality of the infrastructure of the residential complex also affects the price of real estate.
- Renovations. If we talk about secondary real estate, then housing with a brand-new stylish renovation is more expensive than real estate in need of repair.
- The total area of the property.
- The property has or does not have furniture, household appliances and plumbing.
