Shopping for Thailand's BEST Condo 🏚️ Comparing Three Budgets

this condo is only 160 us dollars  per month which is how much i   it's only five thousand pound comment but a condo  just like this as you'll see is only 400 a month   and look at the swimming pool oh my gosh and  this place this place is next level but it's   it's a little bit more expensive but  we'll show you this later in the video we are on our way to the first condo it's  going to be 5 000 baht per month right yes   and which is 160 us dollars per month and it's  fully furnished it is fully finished okay cool   by the way this is ice say hello ice works for  perfect homes perfect homes is really good because   they basically they cut out the middleman um  and they take care of everything for for you the   tenant all right the first place we're going to  is the cheapest one yes now i don't need to crash   let's just talk in a second maybe i'll we'll talk  about where we get there um but it's only 5 000   baht or 160 dollars a month so i'm i'm not hoping  i'm not thinking that this is going to be that   great but we'll see we'll see yeah we'll see okay  she says it's actually quite nice so we'll see okay we're in the lift this building  doesn't really have any facilities   right like a swimming pool or a gym there  is a little mini mart downstairs but that   just opens at night tonight yeah  open f5 okay okay so here we are sorry okay no problem even the uh the numbers on  the door are thai so this is a very local building   okay it is okay after you all right welcome oops oh yeah i got it the top one i don't got it we are at tv condo at 30 square meter studio  room but you can see that they have a separate   bedroom over here um when you walk into  the condo you'll have the bedroom over here   and then you will have a work area and  dining table next to the kitchen in this way   and the kitchen is it's pretty good for 30 square  meter you have a powder area you have a lot of   storage up and down and you have a big window  here when you cook and behind me is the bathroom   which is pretty good for this side 30 square  meter and you have a shower and you have   this thing and it's everything you need really i  don't know if i have a teddy bear it's very creepy   does it come with the house yeah it's a deal  breaker that teddy bear right you want to have it   feel free to take it and this is the living  area the couch is really big as you can see   and it's really good because you kind of separate  your living room in your bedroom yeah so you can   hang out here and there's still a little bit of  piracy because yeah of this like three-quarter   like walk or you can move stuff as well because  this is not built in furniture so you can move   your bed in this side and your living room  outside oh yeah yeah you can swap it yeah   you could easily just like if you didn't want to  sleep there yeah you could put the bedroom here   you don't mind having a bed next to the kitchen  yeah so just to recap it's how many square meters   30 square meter and it's 5 000 per month  and if you were to buy something like this   like what would be the cost roughly in an area  like this would be around six hundred fifty   thousand okay but yes okay and what typically  like what type of people live in this building   what type of people would rent a place like this  they are average really the thai is foreign and um   there's a lot of people at young age and the sum  of all people live here as well basically people   who on the budget will come to this building  because it's the place is good and got everything   that you need and it comes fully furnished yeah  fully furnished of course everything we see is   there and wi-fi aircon oh you like every condo you  have to pay your own bill yeah electricity water to have a fully furnished bed so for  tv um kitchen's actually okay table   workspace this is really good value um so yeah  why don't we go to the second uh condo which is   sort of like at the 400 a month price range it is  a beautiful building you will you will not believe   how gorgeous it is so let's head there now yes and  then we'll come finally at the end we'll go to the   really special place she said she's got like a  really special place before us at the end yeah   okay but yeah thank you to this place we'll link  everything in the description don't worry so you   can find maybe not this exact room but definitely  the building and obviously perfect homes   so yeah okay let's go to the second uh condo  okay before we go into the building i just   want to tell you that it's actually part of  like four condo complexes next to each other   they're all part of this d condo family there's d  condo rin de condo ping and a few other ones and   they all basically are all next to each other and  they have a 7-eleven catfish bars restaurants in   the local area and the best part is right behind  the condos that ugly grey looking building in the   distance there that is the giant supermarket super  mall central festival so yeah let's go inside   and check out the condo ping honestly  this is one of the most incredible condo   building facilities i've ever seen the swimming  pool is insane and the name of this building is   decondo ping and de condo ping means the  river ping in chiang mai thailand so the   pool is themed on the river and it actually winds  its way through about six or seven buildings all   part of the same complex to replicate the river  ping which is uh just a stones away a stone's   throw away from here actually and i've not seen  a swimming pool like this this is this is special what is my favorite feature definitely is the  double waterfall that they have going underneath   the gym so that gym bridge area that's an  air-conditioned gym so you could work out see the   pool watch people sunbathing look at the kids and  families playing in the pool and then after your   workout you could come out and swim in this really  long swimming pool and of course it has really   shallow areas for the kids and then this middle  kind of like river part is deep enough to get   some good lengths and it's probably maybe not 100  meters long but definitely nearly 100 meters long   so you could get some good laps in here and get  some good fitness built up and not disturb anyone   and the fun part is then every time you go through  that little waterfall you get tickled on your back   and on your butt which would be quite fun i think  as you're swimming but the whole building is super   clean super modern super new and uh yeah me and i  are going to go up and actually see the room now   because i mean look at this i mean lucky lucky  lucky lucky people can live in this building oh nice fancy seeing you here welcome this your  house it is actually no it's not no it's not   don't worry let me show the kitchen first okay the  kitchen is very nice the table the dining table is   really big fit four people or five people here  and you have this kitchen cover over there and   this way you have a balcony a little balcony  with the washing machine which is really good   and walk over here you have a living  room here with a pool wheel wow   oh okay and there's the  pool that we saw earlier yes   beautiful and then the bedroom the bedroom here and you can see the pool from here as well nice  this one i like how they have a lot of window here   yeah a lot of natural light and  the pool looks gorgeous doesn't it   wow and then what's this thing here what's  this bathroom oh okay i'll show you so much so they have a separate shower the thing about  thailand showers i find is you have to try them   because sometimes they're really low powered or or  cold so make sure you test the showers got fired oh that one okay okay so high powered yeah  and i can feel it's getting warm so yeah   pass the paddy's shower test all right cool  let's have a little bit more of a look in detail   so ice if uh someone wanted to rent a condo  room just like this how much uh would it cost   like roughly per month well it would be around  15 000 per month 15 000 baht okay in usd uh yeah   sure do you know what it is in your silence  don't worry don't worry i've actually written   it down i'll i'll i'll put it on the screen they  can see and uh if someone wanted to buy actually   buy it firstly can foreigners buy buy condos  in town as a foreigner you can buy the condo   yes okay cool but you can't buy land you can't buy  land but officially you cannot buy land but you   can buy a house okay there will be more details  in it okay cool if you want to know contact me   and if you wanted to buy a condo you know in  this building in this area at this size what   would you look at what kind of price um for this  one that we just seen it will be about 2.8 million   but okay and what's the square meters again it's  37 square meter okay one bedroom one bathroom   and an incredible facility right yes okay that  was lovely that was an awkward way hello hello um   right so ice is taking me for lunch because all  of this condo touring is making both of us very   hungry um and then we'll go to the most expensive  the bests i mean i wouldn't say best but just the   most expensive uh condo of the day okay yeah  she's telling me it's going to be special   so where are we going to go for  lunch no pressure uh your choice you're a is today so um well perfect  homes the company that you work for and   uh are kindly letting me get around  and look they gave us 500 baht   for lunch so thanks for that so we're going  to go to the most expensive place we can fly   no i'm just kidding um now just to get some thai  food or something yeah yeah yeah yeah okay we   found a place ice is recommended i love the way  you wave every time like hello it's cute uh what   do we get then what what's what's on the menu for  lunch i'm gonna say it in thai okay so this is   mm-hmm yeah and um this is okay and this one is what did you order  i don't know something you put something   seafood somewhere yeah looks pretty good  okay right well let's tuck in let's crack on   now okay we're at the expensive place and ice has  gone in already now i just wanted to show you the   building from the outside because the outside  doesn't look like good kind of looks a little   bit kind of like old run down so i'm not really  hoping not really putting much hope in it maybe   inside it's something else but the building  itself it's okay so we're right on the river   location wise right behind me just down that road  is the river and then yeah doi paying mansion   it's got a cool security guard see it's  very tight it's not a modern new building   we'll see okay so we are at the swimming  pool which is just above the ground floor   and it's very very small compared to the other  one anyway look let me get a better view for you   so only this corner here is actually in the  sun if you wanted a sunbathe in the afternoon   and then you'd probably get some morning  sun here some nice lounges nice umbrellas   i mean the pool is good for like you know  just dipping in if you're getting hot but   definitely can't swim in there uh you could  probably play with the kids for sure but so far the number two place is winning  but it's not competition is it ice but you know which one the  best okay well that's yeah um   the room here is really really nice okay okay  i believe you is a very retro tight kettle   he's got that very like charming tiredness to it  okay i'm excited to go upstairs now is there a gym oh there is a gym okay let's quickly have a look   at the gym oh this is it here  exercise room exercise room so one two three four and a chin up  machine okay basically oh mahogany fancy this building's got character okay so here we are make sure nobody's in that would  be embarrassing wouldn't it okay oh it's crazy that okay let's have the grand  tour missy of the most beautiful room for today   yes um so when you walk in you see the  christmas like decoration over here   and does that come with the house it does  okay good because that was a deal breaker   um oh bunk beds yes when was the last  time you see bunk bed i mean in a hostel   but like okay what's this is this a curtain what  is this oh yeah let's get some more light in here   so yeah the kids could live in here  right so this is just one bedroom   this is just one bedroom the first bedroom um  with two bed um yeah and you got air con and then   you can put the kids toys in here you could have  oh this is yeah this is a really good kids room   yeah yeah oh that's so fun look at that nice  big comfortable bed next one um let's go to   the kitchen area here and this is not a  normal table this is the pool table what it is   oh no way okay i can see why you  said you've never played before   because the black ball goes in here oh okay and  then the white ball you need this one jesus christ   i actually played before but i didn't really  never set up this tip right so you thought that   we used the black ball okay right there so  this is fun got a pool table in the house   okay so let me see your break no i want to see  your break no that's so embarrassing come on let me show you you have to be the ball oh i didn't that's okay let's just leave it  like that it looks nice like that okay so   apart from the awesome pool table what else have  we got going on over here and we have a kitchen   um powder egg um kitchen area here on this  side which is really good um it's big space   and you see the marble here it's really really  good was it real yeah oh fancy and then you've   got a much bigger fridge freezer yeah nice oh it's  on as well huge big one not like an american-sized   one but this is big for thailand right yeah it's  pretty big to me at least okay any more surprises   we have a what have you called a drinking area  a bar area yeah i can see people sitting here   yeah maybe like some ice in here right yeah it  used to have a white coil over here okay but   they take it out um do you want to take it out  because it's really expensive okay but yeah you   could definitely drink here have beers here put  some food on here have parties lovely okay cool   and then what and then in this area you have a big  living room with the big screen tv and the sound   system yeah i can see big speakers wow yeah um i  love the table the table so it's pretty beautiful yeah and if you come and see here you'll see  how beautiful that view is oh wow yeah let's   go outside and get a good view of this properly  so this is a really famous temple right next to   the building and then there's the river just  coming here and the river goes all the way   there's iron bridge right that's iron bridge yeah  it is and then deutsche taps in the distance but unfortunately you can't see deutsche tech because  it's well you can barely see it because of the   smoky season is approaching right yeah but i  can imagine that the view here on any other   day or any other season like rainy season or any  any time when it's not february march and april   this would be insane the sun sets every night  and then even the sun rises in this direction   and you have the whole city here to look at   i'm sorry this is not like an epic like sunset  and clearer clearer skies it's smoky season but   what a view it's still beautiful bedroom  number two the second bedroom it's here yeah yeah oh there's three mattresses yeah and  the closet is here okay let's have a look inside   that's not mine okay nice nice big closet yeah and

yeah yeah cool i like   it so all right one more time yeah this is how  much per month it's 40 around 40 000 bucks per   month and if you wanted to buy a place like this  it would be i was i would say around 6 million   yeah wow okay yes and the square meters  again it's 128 square meters three bedroom   three bedrooms three bathrooms two bathrooms  two bathrooms actually no it's three bathrooms   sorry i forgot one more here oh there's  the next one yeah there you go oh hello hi what i'm tired walking around condos all day  um is is tiring but uh thank you so much ice   yes of course it was really fun to see these  different types of condos at different budgets   i hope you guys uh enjoyed it this video was an  idea suggested by you guys so if you are coming to   move to thailand specifically here in chiang  mai or to be honest these prices are available   in most cities in bangkok in phuket in kosamiri  any place really in chiang mai in chiang mai in   thailand you can find different budgets obviously  again check your facebook groups look for estate   agents especially if you're in chiang mai look for  perfect homes uh every every condo that we feature   today you can

ice  are gonna make two more videos we plan next   video to go see houses yes at different three  budgets again we'll do a cheap we'll do an   expensive one we'll do a luxury house houses are  a little bit more expensive than condos yeah so   the budget will probably start at 500 a month  rather than like the middle one this time round   so subscribe because this is just part one of a  three-part series this one the house one and then   the third one will be a special one that might  take us a little bit more time to plan but yes   lots of exciting things to happen so thank you  for
