Thailand Property Thailand Property TG Condo

Sansiri Public Company Limited is confident of continued demand for holiday homes by Thai and foreign customers in Pattaya as the resort city remains one of the preferred tourist destinations in the country resulting in increased interests among investors in this venerable holiday city. The 2016 overall sales growth over the previous year among Thai and foreign customers in the condominium and single house markets, or the rental market was as much as 80 percent, especially for condominiums.

The most preferred locations are right on the beaches or those with the view of the beaches on the famous Pattaya Beach stretching from North Pattaya to South Pattaya, or on Wong-amat Beach that promotes tranquility and privacy.(Information from Research & Development Department of Plus Property Co., Ltd. shows the revival rate of the market from 3 percent to 80 percent, from the overall supply of 56,953 units, while the beach-side properties also were found to be selling well, likewise, at about 80 percent on average)

Sansiri Public Company Limited, elaborated on the information, “The overall market projection for 2017 should be interesting for real estate developers, as the impressive growth trend in Pattaya from 2016 is still gaining momentum. This may be due to the fact that Pattaya is a high-potential seaside resort city that has always been popular among Thais and foreigners although Pattaya tourism has had a setback due to the drop in the number of Russian tourists that used to make up the majority of visitors to Pattaya.

“However, it is notable that the demand for beach-side developments has grown substantially among Thais and foreigners of other nationalities, such as the Chinese whose presence in Pattaya grew by 31 percent. Currently, the Wong-amat location is strongly coming into focus due to its private and tranquil location with as much as 85 percent of the total supply sold in the 95,000-120,000-baht-per-square-metre range. The most popular are the one-bedroom units with floor areas of from 40 to 55 square metres. This is because these mid-size units can accommodate more people and can more readily fulfill the needs of renters.”

Where Sansiri projects are concerned, “THE BASE Central Pattaya”, the condominium under “THE BASE” brand in central Pattaya on the high-potential Pattaya 2 Road, racked up 100-percent sale very quickly in 2013. Since its completion as scheduled in 2016, customers have continuously taken the transfer of ownership – 66 percent of Thai owners and 34 percent of foreign owners. The ratio between own domicile and to release for rent is about 30:70, with the good rental yield of 7 percent and the resale price appreciating by 15-20 percent – a satisfying return for investors.

Meanwhile, the high-end “Baan Plai Had by Sansiri” condominium project shows a sales figure of 95 percent with 80 percent being Thai customers and 20 percent foreigners. The ratio between own domicile and to release for rent is about 60:40. From early in 2017, Sansiri has included both “Baan Plai Had by Sansiri” and “THE BASE Central Pattaya” projects in the “Holiday Homes” campaign to support the demand for holiday homes in the resort city during the high season. The campaign rounds up condominium projects and ready-to-move-in single-house projects in five famous resort cities together. The special promotion specially at “Baan Plai Had by Sansiri” is for the completely furnished 3-bedroom unit with sea view priced only at 14.99 million baht*. The campaign is receiving great interest among the customers who have the full confidence in Sansiri’s brand and quality.

“We expect that the real estate market in Pattaya will continue to grow, particularly at locations on the beach or those with good sea view. The higher project development cost and the limitations in land availability that would reflect on the cost of investment have resulted in the investment in ready-to-move-in condominiums becoming the holiday homes of choice. Another reason is their good selling prices because of the attractive sales promotion. Another factor is the actual units are ready for inspection before any decision is made – a big contrast to other new projects where uncertainties abound. This is a clear competitive advantage in the real estate business at present,” Sansiri concluded
