The Bank of Thailand announced an increase in the mortgage interest rate

The State Housing Bank announced an increase in interest rates on all types of loans by 0.25% per annum. Mortgage interest will increase from 1.25% per year to 1.50% per year. The interest rate increases for the first time in 2 years and 9 months from May 25, 2020.

The Monetary Policy Committee, at its meeting on January 25, 2023, unanimously decided to raise the discount rate to match the trend of economic recovery and inflation with immediate effect.

It is quite difficult for a foreigner to get a mortgage in Thailand, for this you need to have a resident status. Foreigners can count on installments from the developer or on a loan from non-governmental organizations. Whether the interest on these types of loans will change is still unknown for sure.
