Hi Bonnetti,
we bought a piece of land last year, a total of 1 rai. Actually it were 4 chunks of land put together, therefore it took a lot of time to get the papers. The land is on a (beton) village road in Phetchaboon county, about 50 m near the wat. The land had to be cleaned, filled up (about 1 m) and fenced around with a wall (50+30+50 m). Alltogether I think we spent nearly 500,000 Bt for this. Now they are starting the house, we took a contractor of Phetchaboon county, after starting with catalogs and pricing information from Bangkok, Pattaya and Phuket. I think we should support the local businesses, give them work, this will reward you in the long run, if you give paid work to people. Unskilled worker gets about 120 Bt per day, worker with machinery about 220. For the house (20,5 x 13,5 m, bungalow style) we got a price of 1,600,000. It will have 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 carports. I paid attention to a mixed ventilation/aircondition system. You need aircondition to keep paperwork dry during monsun time. Add about 200,000 for furniture. House will be ready in about 3 month.
