Thread: Ball park figure for a new house

Mid sized, three bedroom house/ bugalow with garden in ummm... somewhere like Nakon Pathom or Kanchaburi.... Any ideas?

the ball park may be the most expensive part

Here in Korat a house like that in a moderate moo baan would sell for about a million baht.

That's a fair ball park estimate, though it depends on the size of the land.
I imagine you are talking about the land and the house.

The million baht figure is for a very small lot and for a house with inexpensive fixtures. Obviously, you can go way up from there.

That one cost me 1.29million.
58 sq wah.
Adding a kitchen onto the back of it at the moment.

Looks a bit better quality than the one I was citing for a million. Yours is nicely finished. Where is it?

About 8 km North of Central ChiangMai, amphur Sansai.

Very pleased with the place too.

Prices have started to rise over the last year or so, but can't see them soaring too much, very competitive builders and far too much available land within 15 kms of the city.
We got a lovely swimming pool, gym and tennis courts in the village too.

yeah, but he did post at 10.33 which threw me a bit

What exactly were you thrown by Doc??

I think his computer clock is off, making him think you were in a different time zone than Chiangmai....

You rich bastard you.

Wouldn't get the land for that price in Bangkok!

Thetyim, you couldn't lend us a few bob, eh?

I think the land up here, where I am is a bout 9,000 baht a square wah, was 7,900 when we bought it.
Hopefully the new kitchen area will add value too.

So you bought a house without a kitchen?

Half right there

I think it's about 30,000 per sq. wah around here, but I may be wrong and I'm sure it varies wildly in different areas.

Not quite Memock.

At the moment the kitchen and dining area are located at the back of a largish open plan lounge.
Thai cooking, being rather pungent should probably be made seperately and as we don't use the back part of the garden for anything, we decided to extend.

Sorry Doc, but hardly your best material in my opinion.
Though humour is in the head of the beholder I guess.
