Stunning sea & sunset views from this freehold condo in Phuket

 It is a good time to find hidden gems like this on sale in Phuket right now. In saying that, this one is not so hidden up on the hillside in the west coast resort town of Karon.

But a gem it is none the less with stunning unblocked sea and sunset views from its large balcony terrace and back from that even from watching TV in the living room. I watched this place being built when I was myself based in Phuket a few years back. They sold very fast and have been very hard to get hold of since.

But now there is one on sale, and at I believe an exceptional price also. OK, we would all agree in the world of Thailand Real Estate, asking prices often mean very little as there almost seems to be no relationship between the asking price and the normal price per sqm. we have all come to know and love. 

However, in this case I think it would be hard for anyone to argue that for such a place, of such class and quality, in such a location and with such a view, that under 80,000 per sqm. is a very good price indeed. Many off plans are not far off this, but here there is no risk, it is built and furnished entirely ready to live in.

Recently reduced from 12.7 million Thai Baht (approx. U$400,000) down to a very attractive 9.9 million Thai Baht (approx. U$316,000) we believe this will not remain available for long. At Siam Distinction we can also source mortgages for this property from one of three banks based here in Thailand. These loans are open to expats no matter where they live and work for up to 80% LTV!

X2 Residences Koh Kood now boasts the best beach on the island

One can only marvel at modern technologies in construction when one sees a site such as this in Thailand Real Estate and Hospitality industries. As we draw close to the end of the year, many of the upgrades and improvements at X2 Koh Kood have been completed, not least this stunning 200 meter stretch of pure white sand beach front.

Long ago visions dreamt up by the development team at X2 Resorts & Residences have now become this stunning reality. And the reality is that this could very well be the very best and most private stretch of beach from on all of Koh Kood. Due to the unique headland position of X2, it is highly unlikely this stretch of beach will ever be populated or used by anyone other than resort guests or residence owners. Thus the X2 Koh Kood beach enters into island folklore.

There can be no doubt that the creation of this beach will now have a quite profound affect on future value of the privately owned residences being created at this wonderful site and with only 5 villas and 3 apartments remaining on sale, time is of the essence for all those who want to own a luxury ltd. edition home at what is at present still a very low price.

Indeed this is not the only improvement that has been made at X2 Koh Kood, or indeed to the island, which now in itself has a new superb luxury high speed ferry service up and running from the new pier station at Trat……..watch out for more news on this coming soon. X2 Residences Koh Kood, perhaps the best Real Estate on offer in Thailand.

Completed & ready to live in Direct Beach Front Villas

Now I can tell you of a new property I have on offer, one that is completed and ready to live in right now! A property that is direct beach front itself with 4 bedrooms, private pool, large kitchen and dining entertainment area open to the pool area and so on and so forth. Suffice to say these are dream beach front homes.

They were built in 2006 and have since then been on the holiday rental market. In the last few months we have spruced them up a little as they were in corners here and there getting tired. Now they look simply stunning, in all four guises.

They come each of them with separate Chanote title on around one quarter of a Rai of beach front land, which in itself would be worth circa 12 Million Baht. To then create, plan and build these homes would again cost at least the same again if not more so at the asking price of just 29,950,000 Baht, these are exceptionally priced to sell, especially when one takes into account they are sold fully furnished and propped in every regards and that any serious flaws will be put back to A1 condition.  

Recently we also added 4 CCTV cameras linked up to the security booth and the home to ensure maximum security and protection for your home whether you are in or out, 24-hours a day. If you are looking for a truly stunning beach front home, then this truly needs you to come and see it as they will not disappoint! Take a look at their website here.

Thanks ever so much for reading.

Land & property values set to double with arrival of Koh Kood airport.

Now confirmed to have passed its Environmental impact assessment study, and well on the way to being constructed and completed by sometime towards the end of 2014.

At present access to Koh Kood can be quite a journey and as such tourism numbers are a lot lower than they should be, or indeed would be had the island of already had its own airport. And as we all know with the arrival of an airport will come the arrival of huge increases in tourist numbers.

 It is expected that land values alone will increase by at least 200% in the coming 3 years and the knock on effect to this of course will be the value of property itself on the island. Thus owners at X2 Residences will, we believe see their values double within 3 years of taking ownership, quite a return by anyone’s standards.

With this news we would say, don’t look back in 3 years wishing you had known now what you were to see then. This truly is an investment opportunity of a lifetime.

Greetings one and all

There are quite literally thousands of people out there who would dearly love to buy a luxury home in Thailand, and indeed there are literally thousands to choose from. This of course fraught with problems, as most buyers know very little about the market here in Thailand and are as such at the whim of the developer and or real estate agent. 

Of course it is very unlikely a developer will tell you not to buy his property as he believes vigorously in his site, and as he should. And despite what people may believe, agents are not necessarily dishonest, but with hundred of properties for sale on their website it is impossible for them to truly know which ones are secure, trustworthy, financially stable and of correct quality.

Hence Siam Distinction is born. We will never host more than around 25 property developments on sale i would think, this way we truly can know all about the developer, the product and thus the viability of what they offer and thus give accurate correct and fruitful. We have been in Thailand working in the business for many years and as such we have learned to do our own levels of due diligence. We firmly believe we can protect our buyers interests whilst still representing the developer to the fullest as an agent should. 

If you do genuinely want to buy but have fears, misgivings and in general are a little confused, drop us an email and we will take through all the pros and cons, the processes, the ownership issues, financing, rental programs, management fees, the whole nine yards. Rest assured that we will present this information to you warts and all leaving out none of the ugliness and potential pitfalls. We want you to know the whole story before you buy your dream home so that it remains just that for your lifetime.
