Condo
Hi jsd
My condo is in the Patong Grand Condotel on Rat-U-Tit Rd. next door to what used to be the Bayshore Resort Hotel, which is now called the Devana or something like that. Also the Sky Inn is next to it.
Prices for condo's vary, depending on which complex.
My place has 2 large bedrooms and an area containing, lounge, fitted kitchen, plus 1 bathroom / wc. + 3 balconies. 85 square metres. on the 6th. floor.
The complex also has a nice pool & parking.
I paid 2.3 million baht 5 years ago and i don't think the prices have risen a lot since then. The monthly costs are 1200 baht. This covers management fees, water & electricity standing charge. The only other cost is for the water & electric i use when i am there. About 700 baht a week. That is with having the aircon running most of the time. Grand Condo is quite a nice place,
secure and no hassles. A lot of the units are owned by farangs who use them for holidays or who live there most of the time. Some are investment properties that are rented out. Mostly long term. I rented a few times before buying. A cheaper option is the Sky Inn, but a bit downmarket. A lot of LB.s rent places there.
If you want to go to top end of market in Patong, there is the Andaman Suites. Prices range upwards of about 7 or 8 million and the management costs are very high.
Hope this answers a few of your questions.
