Manowar,, how are your "investments going" ????
My house and land has increased in price 200% in 5 years,, my apartment 80% in 2 years, maybe I will give up the acting and keep going with property.
P.S I fail to understand what you where so stupidly ( as usual) attempting to show whith your quote and then your stupid comment.

Its difficult to get accurate infornmation, but one gathers that high end homes (on headland or ocean view) are holding their own price wise ; although I certainly agree that the general level of house prices is far too high. But one has to remember that Phuket is an international resort market for wealthy people from all over the globe...quite different to the Pattaya or Hua Hin real estate markets.
One problem we are currently experiencing is an accute shortage of construction labour, due to the vast rebuilding exercise that has been going on. This is obliging contractors to ask very high prices for new villas and pools.
My hunch is that it will take a couple of years for hotel occupancies on the island to return to pre Dec 26/04 levels. Then watch out.

Manowar, I am definately not filthy rich but do enjoy making good investments and so far they are paying off very well. I gives me more money to spend in LOS, Vietnam and China.
I still fail to understand why my statement that I thought Phuket and Samui prices have been too high for quite a few years w0ould upset MANOWAR so much???????
Did you pay overs on some flooded land that was used as a toxic dumping ground?

Abrak you are right. Phuket's beach front land before Tsunami was asking in the 20m/rai range (if you can find it). Some of the beach front land I looked at was swept under by the Tsunami. Just imagine having built a US 2million house there ! My guess is the market appears to be strong for now because these were deals struck before the Tsunami and maybe the huge deposits already went non-refundable so the deals went through anyway. But the key question is : are there any recent deals being made and are they being made at the same price level as before the Tsunami. We will see the real price by next years because these would have been the deals made this year, after the Tsunami.
In 2 specific cases, friends of mine who had been "looking to get a price" for land in Phuket have done deals this year that they had been waiting for for 5 years.
I am in Phuket now. I am involved in property but not in Phuket property. Strange things happen in life. The Tsunami has temporarily killed tourism but it focussed people's attention on Phuket. Phuket is a nice place to stay, there are a lot of rich people in the world. Land prices have certainly moved up here this year.
The Tsunami 'should' have dampened the property market but all it did was attract lots of people looking to pick up a bargain. And some of those people have decided to invest. Prices 'should' have fallen but they rose. Life is unpredictable.

Interesting. Now that the casino talk is starting up again. God forbid Thaskin decides to put it in Phuket....imagine the land speculation there !! Maybe should go grab a few rais while the market is still somewhat cool........Hmmm.....wonder where they will put the casinos in Phuket if they decide to go with it. Near the airport ? Chalong bay ? east coast ? Any educated guess ?

The casinos will go to Pattaya.
Might as well put all the 'sin' in one place. That's my guess anyways.
