Investment Analysis
Financial metrics for branded residences in Bangkok & Phuket
Tax Considerations
- No annual property tax on condos under ฿50M
- Transfer fee: 2% (typically split buyer/seller)
- Specific Business Tax: 3.3% if sold within 5 years
- Foreign ownership: Up to 49% of condo units
- Thailand Elite Visa for qualifying purchases
Industry Benchmarks
Major hotel groups including Marriott and Hilton underwrite hotel and residential components separately, with co-located developments the preferred model. Standalone branded residence schemes face greater scrutiny around brand alignment and long-term operational sustainability.
