Finally condo tour is back, thanks Jon, I was missing it. Decent size condo that would benefit from some renovation, especially bathroom and kitchen area. Love the view from the balcony and the bedroom, a sea of green, perfect!

[@JonInChiangMai]

Thanks mate :)

I rented there 5 yrs ago for two years. The hallways were never kept up (dirty), tenants kept their trash sometimes right out side their door (and it sometimes stank) owners rarely paint their units or do any upgrades. Juristic is marginally helpful at best. And the biggest thing for me was the traffic, and one way only, btw 15:00-18:00. 3-4 schools right there. Cheap as chips, I had a fantastic view, but after 2 yrs I had it.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Great feedback on the building, I've only ever looked for 20 minutes at a time so getting a first hand living experience is good to know :)

[@mcmoose64]

For me this is the perfect location in Chiang Mai. I very nearly bought a fully refurbished unit in this block just last week , it sold before I could get myself organised.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yep agree on the location, I'd love to live around there. Ah that's a shame, there is 2 bedroom for sale on the 2nd floor at the moment I think that's been fully renovated.

[@scotsaul]

I like the layout, I imagine once the clutter is removed, it wpuld look a little better. Thanks for the tour, Jon

[@JonInChiangMai]

Thanks mate :)

[@Openeyesopenheart42]

Fantastic condo for the price mate, thanks.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Thanks mate :)

[@Retirementbliss]

Love the size, but too dated for me. I would pay a higher price if they updated the unit.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yep, I think they could get 5k more if it was renovated to a good standard :)

[@user-tc2jr7ks9k]

Fantastic condo.lobe it.

[@JonInChiangMai]

👍

[@parkhilton]

These older appts are good, decent space, good value & location.

[@JonInChiangMai]

👍

[@EarthCamper]

simple and neat ...$300 is ok price i think

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yep I think it's a great price :)

[@jason41a]

Real old school condo. personally i would rather have a tiny but brand new modern condo room since i'm a single guy. but if it's me an another person or two, totally would go for these older condos. houses in chaingmai outskirts are also tremendous value, but you're gonna need a car - suitable for thais and long term expats with a family.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yeah I can see the appeal of a brand new unit, 100% on houses :)

[@billyjohnson9166]

Good price they need to paint it a neutral color.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yep 100% on the color :)

[@carstensanonym7527]

Nice size and balcony plus. Just the seating furniture looks sad. A good couch is missing. It has a retirement home feeling. Hm do you estimate a sales price?

[@JonInChiangMai]

There was a similar unit around 3 to 3.5 million a few months ago. Yes, it could do with a reno.

[@nncadi1]

Do a total reno, could ask for more…a bit too dated for me.

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yeah, could get maybe 5k more if it was renovated to a good standard.

[@mmaranta785]

So it’s not on the Night Bazaar side of the river?

[@mcmoose64]

Yes it is. Just a block or two away. maps.app.goo.gl/dcrihCY4q2VB2kqZ7

[@JonInChiangMai]

It is, just turn left our of the condo and you'd be at the night bazaar in about 5 minutes :)

[@troywebb7334]

I am thinking of staying at the Astra sky condo, is this considered a good area to stay in?

[@greedisgood3]

Astra, 2 locations, both very good

[@JonInChiangMai]

Yeah location is on Chang Klan road, you could walk in 10 minutes to Thapae road.

[@timjensen6968]

It didn't seem to be such a special place especially for the price. The pool is just a giant bathtube & the fitness room equipment is sparse & poor quality.

[@Nasdaqslaktarn]

U are a simple hater of thai culture ! Evolusion will never be as plan and great as the mongol empire. If you dont understand what i mean you should read a book on napoleonic warfare

[@JonInChiangMai]

I'd say it's location that is the main selling point and room size, I don't think 13k is bad for this :)

[@davidbettney785]

What would that cost to buy?

[@JonInChiangMai]

Seem to remember a similar size unit around the 3 to 3.5 million mark about 6 months ago.

[@davidbettney785]

@@JonInChiangMai Thanks pal

[@dannyho6786]

what the bloody hell is a hobb mate ?

[@JonInChiangMai]

The thing you cook on :)

[@politanene]

That room color 🤨😔🤒🤮

[@JonInChiangMai]

Haha yeah, should be a bit more neutral 😁
