Which is why they are half empty.

Buying a unit in a building that is only half sold would be kind of worrying to me. I wonder if there are ways to find out how many units in a particular building are sold versus not sold. Somebody told me that for the most part Thai folks are only interested in the brand new buildings making older buildings a bit more of a risk I guess. I wonder if smaller well kept complexes are a better bet than the really huge complexes.

The Thais rent to foreigners. I've never rented a condo that was not Thai owned.

Jakarta and Phnom Penh if you prefer bars. Vietnam if you don't mind online shopping.

I'm renting a condo in a building I quite like just across the river (Thon Buri side), and was thinking of maybe buying a unit. Decided against it, as I'm done with Bangkok. But that's another story. Anyway I checked out the "penthouse" units. There are eight of them. Four on the river side, in other words nice view, and four looking over the grimy suburbs of the city. Only four of the eight were up for sale. All four had the same view. No doubt you can guess which. I haven't checked with Juristic, but judging from other signs (parking, lights on in the evening, uncollected mail / notices, etc.), I make the building to be about 55% occupied.

Only wage slaves and government employees calculating inflation numbers exclude the highest cost items in order to arrive at a number they like. Businessmen (like me) know that you must take into account all of your expenses when calculating your costs.

The cost of air travel, hotel, food and incidentals are all part of the cost of your trip. You then add the cost of the girls. Take the number of nuts you busted and divide it into your total and you get your CPO (Cost Per Orgasm). That is an objective number can use to measure the true cost of busting your nut each time you shoot it off. And you can compare this number across any country you chose to visit.

Farang can rent a Thai owned condo or house. We just can't own them.

They do a complete search of us and one person in our group had a very small plastic bag with some residue in it so we were all taken to the police station and extorted. Not a fun night.

Could get nasty even if they don't find any illegal drug but find a vaping pen.

LOL at first I thought it was because I didn't have a seat belt on, but they asked us to empty our pocket and them flip though our wallet and that when it clicked there looking for drugs.

As anyone else experienced this.

IMHO, mongering is always better with a wingman. If for no other reason than to have one buddy with whom you can reminisce.
