yes, I love those traditional Thai swimming pools and gardens

estate agents the world over do talk a lot of crap!!

look OK though, but pricey

as for bargains, my wife trawls through Bankok bank auction stuff and finds some good bits and pieces. She reckons the government site is better, more interesting houses often

but the best way of finding the house you want is to cycle round and find the "for sale" notices, with a Thai speaking person, of course.

agents are a pain, they just stick on 25% for themselves for not much work.

I have gone to a few of these auctions up here. All the decent properties are bid on bu the bank for full price. if the bank isn't going to bid, i.e let it go it really aint; worth much, Some of the homes up for auction still have the foreclosed owner occupying them and it is up to the buyer to oust them.
Some decent deals to be had on plain land though. We got all the bank books (they are all about 20mm thick) and circled the homes & land we like. we were methodical, we went and viewed the properties, we copied down the listing numbers, addresses and any other pertinent notes on each interesting property. Without exception the bank made an initial bid (as is their right) for the full listed purchase price.

Finding the property you like and then dealing drirectly with the bank is by far the easiest way to go. Like Thetyim mentione you might have to have a few options with different banks Some the guys running these banks are just plain fuckin dumb. They've been sitting on properties waiting to get their price for ages...

Absolutely correct Frankie but I did find a way around the bank bidding.

The fate of the house at auction is in the hands of the auctioneer.
If the auctioneer is on your side and doesn't tell the bank that he is auctioning the house that day then the bank does not turn up to bid.
Getting the auctioneer on your side involves the usual donation.

Would you like me to post a piccy of the first house I bought ?

I bought this house from Krung Thai Bank.
It is in the city of Phrae about 1km from the city centre but located in a very quiet and repectable soi. There are 16 houses in the soi and the neighbours include Director of Highways, Senator, School Director etc.
All the wood in this house is Golden Teak even the roof timbers.
3 bed, 2 bathroom, 1 rec. Parquet flooring.
After this piccy was taken I replaced the roof tiles with better quality blue ones which made it look a lot better.

How much land is that sitting on and how much did it cost, if you don't mind my asking.

^Yes, but is it on the left or right side of the soi and exactly how many metres down the soi - I mean I would like a grid reference is possible.
