I would have to agree, in fact I'm not keen on a lot of the houses here. Way too grand for me, trying to hard to impress others and show off their money. Too much concrete and not enough open, shaded areas. Very formal gardens without any trees to sit under.

There are some really nice places in some of the Thai language house and garden magazines. Places with nice gardens and clever use of cheap materials.

What would you estimate the $ range for these homes to be? They're a little over the top for my taste, but am thinking of building in Isaan - a little more on the modern side of things though.

The only thing I can think Fabian is saying is, if you build a high end house up there, then you have to at least have to have a lease on the land (so you can't be kicked out) and if you ever want to sell it, you'll have a he11 of a time getting anywhere near what you have invested in it as most Thais (from what I've heard) don't want a second hand house. Up2 U as they say.

Absolutely, Eliminator. In addition, if the wife's family is near they can make you don't want to live there anymore if the relationship is going downhill.

(Actually I meant no one sane in his mind would build a house in Isaan but thanks Eliminator for that nice interpretation.)
