Alan Bolton Property Consultants Plan Expansion but still confident in Thai Property Investment

June 22, 2010 - PRLog -- Alan Bolton Property Consultants are known locally as one of the biggest agents in Pattaya Thailand, with their Principal and Manager Director Alan Bolton having worked in Thailand’s real estate sector for 16 years. Now it seems that expansion plans are now well underway with new sites being pinpointed in Phuket and Koh Samui and also farther afield with a number of Thailand’s neighbouring countries being targeted.  Alan Bolton’s “Country Manager” explains-

“We feel the need to open offices throughout Thailand and we have been working very hard to find the best locations for our business in Phuket and Koh Samui”

This is an exciting time for Alan Bolton Property Consultants and it seems like expansion will not be just limited to Thailand.

“I have spent some time researching other countries in Asia and we believe that there are great opportunities for us to expand our network by opening offices in countries such as Cambodia and Malaysia, being that these markets are relatively un-tapped as far as foreign Real Agents are concerned”

With all of this said Alan Bolton Property Consultants still genuinely believe that from, a foreign investors point of view Thailand is still the best bet for an overseas property investment. Thailand still represents incredible value for money with SQM costs lower than most countries in the Asian region at just over 2400 US Dollars and net yields of just 8% PA.  Although Thailand imposes some strict laws as far as Foreigners owning Land in Thailand and requires Thai’s to own a 51% share of condominium units, however most countries in Asia also impose strict regulations.

“Thailand property transactions are still relatively easy despite what some may say, and yes I agree the real estate sector could be improved with less restrictions, however there are not many countries in the world whereby a Property Transaction can be finalised in just 24 hours or a Limited company formed in 48 Hours- there are countries in Asia where it is a lot easier to buy a property however prices per SQM are at least double than that of Thailand and in some cases rental yields and capital appreciation are at least half- overall Thailand is still a very competitive country for an investor looking for good yields and capital appreciation”  
 
The commitment from property developers in Thailand is another factor why Alan Bolton Property Consultants are so positive about the Thai Property Sector.

“Developers in Thailand are doing things the right way, incentives and payment terms are some of the best in the region and the overall package, of price, style, facilities and building schedule are right up there with some of the more developed countries in Asia and in-fact worldwide- these are the reasons why we believe that Thailand is still one of the best countries to buy overseas Real Estate and it will continue to be the case for many years to come”
