Condominium - a tenement house or several houses. In Thailand, condominiums tend to have a communal swimming pool, round the clock protection and its parking lot. Depending on the class condominium, the services of the tenants may also be shops, laundry, restaurants, gym, tennis courts, etc.

Foreign subjects to be purchased at the personal property only an apartment in a condominium.
Under the law, which came into force in 1974, foreigners in Thailand can own 49% of the apartments into condominiums. Ie in each apartment house 49% of apartments will be sold to foreigners, and 51% - the only Thai nationals or companies registered in Thailand. When buying in his own name, the foreign subjects to receive Chanot - official document issued by the Land Department of Thailand. This document guarantees the unconditional right of possession, sale, inheritance, etc. apartments listed in Chanote.
Buying the same house (ofromlyaetsya as buying land) requires the establishment of the Thai company, which issued the transaction. A foreigner can own in a company 49% and to be a director with a decisive right to property companies. There are legal mechanisms to guarantee the safety of minority shareholders, a shareholder of his investment. For more information, please contact our sales managers.

The transaction of sale is made at the Land Department of Thailand. When you register you get a paper transaction - Chanot, which guarantees your right to ownership of you bought an apartment. Chanot issued to foreigners does not differ from Chanota for local residents and has an equal with him guaranteeing property rights.
Chanot represents a document which on the face of the emblem of Thailand, described layout and details of the purchased property, but on the other side - the history of all sales of this property. The document is filled in the Thai language, and the owner's name fits well with Thai letters.

Purchasing an apartment in a private person in the secondary market, ie not from the builder, fees charged by the Land Department of Thailand will depend on several factors: a period during which the seller owned housing data before its sale, as well as the estimated cost of housing, which is not necessarily the selling price. As a rule, all associated with the sale of housing expenses paid by the seller and the buyer in equal shares. On average, the share of the buyer remains payments approximately 2 - 4% of the cost of housing. A more accurate calculation, you can get from our managers when selecting a specific object.

Buying an apartment from the developer is as follows:
Once you've chosen an apartment, you make a deposit - usually it is 50.000 or 100.000 baht, depending on the cost of housing. Payment is by cash or credit card developer. After paying a deposit, your selected apartment is booked in your name. A few days after booking you will receive a contract from the builder, which indicated the number of your apartment, the agreed payment schedule, completion date, etc. Contract is between you and the builder directly, without the participation of the agency. Contract written in English. Most developers have made the translation of the treaty on the Russian language for your convenience. However, you will sign a contract in English and that it is a legal document defining the rights and obligations of the parties. If you do not sign the contract previously made a deposit you will not be refunded.

The contract between the seller and the buyer shall be in English and Russian languages, the legal effect is the English version of the treaty. The contract must specify the data seller, the buyer, the object of the transaction, its cost, payment terms and webcasts of property rights, as well as the duration of the contract. Also, the contract specify who bears the cost of transferring the ownership.

Agency services are paid by the seller, not buyer. Prices do not vary from the developer on whether you buy an apartment by the agency or directly from the developer.

For a transaction account is not required. When buying a home in the secondary market, the money can be transferred to the seller or the agency from abroad or transferred in cash. Nevertheless, we do not recommend transfer funds in advance on account of the seller or the agency. Correct to open your bank account and on this account to transfer money from abroad or putting brought with cash. It is important to indicate the transfer of funds from abroad to the account in Thailand, that the money is transferred "to buy real estate", in English «to buy property» or «investment». Opening a bank account to make free, but the account owner should put into your account 500 baht as minimum deposit. When buying a home is the primary market to open his account and did not need, since all payments are credited to the account of the builder.

"TT3" - it is a necessary document for the commission of a foreign deal to buy property in Thailand. This document is provided by the bank. "TT3" is a confirmation of the foreign investment. By law, an alien is entitled to buy property in Thailand only if he is an investor, ie, can prove that the money for the purchase of real estate came from another country, not in Thai Baht. A buyer who brought with him cash (no restrictions on the import of cash in Thailand do not have), changes in the bank money to Baht and get the necessary for the transaction "TT3. Also, the bank issues a "TT3 and you transfer money directly to the developer from abroad or cashing traveler's checks at the bank of Thailand.

If you already have a bank account in Thailand and to send money from your country is not for you difficulty, then, in our view, it is easier to transfer money or to bring a "traveler's checks. " Carry with them the same cash - always a risk. When forwarding a non-cash sure to specify in the "purpose of payment»-« to buy property » or «investment».

The owner of an apartment in a condominium apartment has the right to transfer by inheritance. The name of the heir may be entered in the "Chanot" - a document of title to the apartment.
By default, the first heirs are his parents, then children, wife, husband, and the next closest male relative who has attained the age and older.

Bank loan - is complicated. Requires banking history and a work permit.
In this case, there is a chance to get a loan against the property. The average annual rate - about 8%. With a tourist visa does not get credit. With the installment of the seller's situation is simpler. In the case of home buying in the primary market (ie, more housing under construction, sales from the builder) - as a rule, yes. Installments can be given for a period of 1, 2 or even 5 years. It depends on the project and the developer. As for second homes - usually not, but there are exceptions, depending on the seller.

Watching the purpose of getting housing. If the purpose of investment - it is better from the builder, and than at an earlier stage of development - the better. Developer is interested to sell as many apartments in the initial phase of construction, since the money received from the buyer will allow the developer to a lesser degree to borrow money from a bank at interest. As the construction of the house, the price has been steadily increasing, and often the person who has bought an apartment at the stage of development, can be advantageous to resell my apartment before the end of its construction. If comparing prices per square meter of the primary and secondary housing - then the secondary market m2 significantly cheaper.
