It is a Golden Opportunity to Own a Home in Thailand

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

It is a golden opportunity for those who dream of securing a prime piece of real estate in an ideal location with a reasonable price. Living in Thailand is a rewarding experience and the place for successful living!

Thailand Property Market

Thailand is classed as an emerging property market while it remains in the early stages of growth. Investors are purchasing now, while property prices are at a low and look set to rise when the property market and supporting infrastructure matures in Thailand. High growth figures are very achievable particularly in the newer resorts, where average growth can reach 15%.

The government is concentrating on ambitious new marketing efforts to attract luxury tourism in order to meet its annual target of 10% growth in tourist numbers.

New construction in resorts is expected to attract a vast numbers of tourists on short term holidays, while generating excellent rental yields for the investors who own these properties.

Retire like royalty in a low-cost paradise

The cost of living in Thailand is much lower than in most European/American destinations while the facilities available to tourists and visitors are modern and of international standard. Property is much cheaper in Thailand than elsewhere and an increase in overseas interest in property purchase has helped to create an economic recovery in Thailand.

The answer for a growing number of European and Americans making the leap into early retirement is moving to a country with a lower cost of living. From a financial perspective, spending your golden years overseas is certainly tantalizing. Consider how far your Social Security checks might go. The cost of living may even be low enough for you to retire years earlier than you might otherwise.

For thousands of people who have worked in Asia for many years, Thailand is a very attractive retirement destination, in which the living environment will feel familiar. Retirement visas are available for foreigners over 50 years of age, according to financial means.

Due to its popularity as a tourist destination, Thailand is one of the cheapest places to fly to in Asia, with direct flights readily available to Bangkok from many international airports.
