The neighbours are a touchy subject i think !

OK. Done. Finished.

Nope. He drinks Singha.

I recall a post on here from CMN saying he'd conned it out to a Korean for 13,000 a month. Now the post has gone. Is the Korean reading TD ?

oh you righteous One...home is cute though

If you know where, I have 2 colleagues that have been looking for the past 6 weeks.

Soi's along the superhighway, near Lanna Hospital. Up to 6 months ago I had a 4 bedroom, 3 Bathroom, Living Room, Kitchen, 2-Storey Teak house with private yard there for 3,500 a month. That was on Soi Lanna, right beside the hospital about 100 yards up from Green Mill restaurant if anybody knows where that is. There were quite a view like that in the area, plenty of for-rent signs with prices between 2,000 and 6,000 plus 3mths deposit.

As long as you stay away from the newer Moo Baans and anywhere within 2 miles of a Rim-Ping store it's not too difficult to find a good reasonably priced house. Just get in the car or on the bike and spend a day or two cruising the back-streets looking for for-rent signs.

I just thought so because he talked about german beer but obviously he just tried to make a wrong impression.

That's a really nice job, Honey. I know it's really hard to paint over green. Takes about three coats and it still bleeds through, unless you do black.

OK, does it have a cable connection? WiFi? I hate the curtains. It's nice and clean, tho.

^ i'm sure we can arrange to repaint the curtains also!

Does it come with the fridge and any furniture? Cooker? I would like a bigger fridge. How many close neighbours? Do they do karaoke? Well water or govt?

If I may...

It is very nice, albeit a bit compact.

Opposite are a nice Singaporean family, and the others are those lovely smiley Thai people. *cough*

Nice place but would paint it something different to attract buyers.
Those colors are to much to handle. other than that it is a very nice place.

are you sure it's gone?
i don't think it was posted in this thread.

^^
thanks a lot Marmite.
we'll work out a commission next week.

I was interested, but CMN just redded me, so I think I'll pass.

^no I didn't....

Did I??
Must stop drinking so much.
Tell you what WS, I'll never red you again if you buy it.

But they can only charge if they have tenants in there, all well and good asking 15k baht per month, aint much good if nobody takes up the offer though.

Exactly...check any or all the realty websites here in CMai. The rents demanded are exorbitant. Which explains why many realty ads for both rentals and sales have been listing the same homes for years. Some like the Traydr Newz haven't updated their web site pages in ages. I have copies of homes currently for sale that I made a decade ago; albeit one huge Thai Modrn in a rice paddy that had been asking 25 Mil did sell 2 years ago for less than half the asking price. Want to really enjoy paradise, check the outlandish prices being demanded for a similarly-named project built about 8 years ago of sun-baked clay bricks in reclaimed rice paddies with views of a lake to the front which is the village pond and youth nocturnal rendezvous. Sunken Love pits in the living rooms are accidents waiting to happen. Not many so gullible...

I am sure it is a nice house, but as I have never been invited there I cannot recommend it

Singha is fine
