Just spent three months there.Just back.DONT go for the website condos.Ask around, TALK to people.The thais can be really helpful.The new condos are TINY.The older ones are much bigger and better value for money.I found two at 6000 baht a month plus electricity which was 17 pounds a month. 6 baht a unit. Some are 7 or 8000 baht.Shop around, walk the streets and ask for deals on long term rentals.Always respect the properties and look after them as you would do your own place.Two doors between the corridor and where you sleep in a bonus.Corridors can be really noisy at night and first thing in the morning when the cleaners are doing their rounds.😃

Thanks a lot forsharing Alex and all the best for your channel!!

Great video. Great information. Thanks!

To all my friends who are thinking of buying a house or condo in Thailand (or any other foreign country). Please take the advice of seasoned expats and DO NOT BUY a condo or house. JUST RENT! Marcos made a 90 plus minute video on his OVERSTAY ROAD channel where he goes into detail about it.

Absolutely awesome explaining how much it cost for retirement in the town of Hua Hin. I appreciate you for sharing your experience with us.

We just arrived here last Sunday to kick off our retirement. Nice video, given us a few new ideas of things we need to get out and experience.

Thank you for this great information about Hua Hin

The water quality is the main thing that puts me off Thailand. Oh and the crazy driving.

Thank you for visiting my new channel. You can bookmark my channel by subscribing. More videos coming out soon.

Great video , the UK is too expensive now for a nice retirement , I may look at a Thailand retirement visa , love the climate for jogging and golf. Thanks , liked and subbed.

Hua Hin ticks a lot of boxes for me as I prefer it to the city or high tourist areas. I’d need to spend more time there though. Pity I’m not a golfer with its 15 courses!

Best value in Thailand. Sort of the Pismo Beach of the country. Minimal bar culture. Moving there when my lease in Jomtien expires

Thanks for the video and info. Last year, I lived in the Jomtien area for 6 months and my monthly budget was $3K and that's with companionship with a regular Thai lady for 3x a week without buying any LDs and barfines. I did not eat any western food due way more expensive and been eating Thai food in the market. In my early 50's now, I was planning to retire but I changed my mind in the very last second and back to work in CA. Will do this again, next year.

Im currently in Chang Mai but will be down there in 2 weeks for a look

Realestates in holiday destinations depreciate a lot when you want to sell. There are always new and better condos are being built. Slim chance to make a calital gain. If you calculate accirding to the number of years you will be staying in the property, you can get a better idea what to do about buying a property in developing countries.

Who-wah Hin.

I spent 5 weeks in Jomtien (2miles from Pattaya)recently and there was serious talk about having a ferry in operation very soon from Jomtien to Hua Hin, which will be quite interesting

Good for foreign retirees but bad for locals. Cost of living there have skyrocketed in the past few years. It used to be dirt cheap and reasonably priced even in 4-star hotel when I was kid there. Now it's playground for rich northern European retirees driving up the prices for the locals. Mind you Hua-Hin is still a small resort town after all these years so it's just sad to see you won't be able to live there nowadays unless you're already lived there with your family for generations or you're a multi-millionaire looking outside-in to exploit the place. Cha-Am in the immediate north of Hua-Hin also suffered the same fate.

What’s the humid like there. I love many parts of Asia but Saigon was unlivable.
