Buyer Guide
Frequently Asked Questions
Practical answers for international buyers considering luxury property in Thailand.
Foreign nationals can own condominium units freehold (up to 49% of total units in a project). For landed property such as villas, common structures include long-term leasehold (30+30+30 years) or ownership through a Thai limited company. CB Prime advises on the most suitable structure for each client.
Freehold means outright ownership with no time limit — available to foreigners for condominiums. Leasehold grants the right to use a property for a defined period, typically structured as 30-year terms with contractual renewal options. Both structures are widely used and legally sound when properly documented.
Buyers should budget for transfer fees (typically 2% of appraised value), specific business tax or stamp duty, legal fees, and sinking/common area fund contributions for condominiums. CB Prime provides a detailed cost breakdown for every property under consideration.
A straightforward condominium purchase can complete in 30-60 days from reservation. Off-plan purchases follow the developer's construction timeline, typically 2-3 years with staged payments. Villa purchases vary depending on due diligence requirements. CB Prime manages the timeline and keeps you informed at every stage.
No. Many of our clients complete purchases remotely. With proper power of attorney documentation, CB Prime coordinates the entire process on your behalf — from property selection and negotiation through to contract signing and transfer.
CB Prime provides independent advisory that puts your interests first. We offer access to off-market opportunities, negotiate preferential terms through our developer relationships, coordinate legal and financial due diligence, and provide ongoing support well beyond the transaction. Our fee is typically covered by the developer, not the buyer.
