How Much Did Our Tiny House In Thailand Cost?

[@gofindyourself6568]

I find your videos remarkably generous and free of agenda or self-promotion. Such a rare experience. I wrestle with the level of courage it took to go your own path and leave the conveyor belt so many of us find ourselves on in the west. you also share with us some of life's most precious (and sometimes private) moments on your journey. all I can give in return is genuine thanks and gratitude.

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thank you for this comment - it made my evening 🙏🙏

Agree 100% lovely blog and family

I have sold all my possessions in Australia after 5 years of my Thai wife and chid being here with me, she travelled back to thailand a few months ago and I will be in rural thailand in January. Yes it is a huge step but not really, you only get one life here and as I have said to all my friends and family (most of which who are supportive) just have a crack! life is for living, don't say "I'll do that tomorrow because tomorrow never comes. I am 48yo and my plans were to head to thailand at around 60-65 yo to retire but recently with the way I see the world changing my option is just have a crack now.

[@jasonjudkins2056]

@@thelostphotographer1438I’m like you mate turning 47 next year and don’t see myself working in Oz until 60 let alone 67, place is going backwards, middle class are expected to pick up the tab for people who refuse to work and a government that doesn’t spend our money very well, Only thing that keeps me here is that t I want my Thai step children to finish school here and for them and my wife to get Australian citizenship, which is still another 4 years. Then hopefully I can live in my wife’s village working the rice fields or sitting overlooking and fishing in the pond, good luck with your move.

You built a home for yourself and how you like it. It’s amazing

[@josephduncan5655]

Ryan, your home is beautiful, almost as beautiful as your family. Have a great evening, Joe from indiana, USA

[@11B3RDID]

That house and what you built is awesome. Great job.

[@johnmcvey7014]

I just watched this video from beginning to end, and I would like to say I found it remarkably professional, very concise and well balanced. I've seen many property tv programs in the UK who use a team of presenters, cameramen, sound engineers, producers, script writers and editors etc. You have managed to put this all together single handedly showing how talented you are in many fields, organizational skills, project management, communications, design, and plenty more stuff. You are obviously a very employable person with abilities that could easily demand big sums of money (or run your own business), but you have chosen a simple life and simple way. Congratulations! 🤩

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thanks John - appreciate it brother 🙏🙏

[@faranghomes]

Beautiful tiny house 😍 Congrats both!

[@ProductionJunction1]

Can ask what material you used on the concrete blocks to make the outside walls white? They look Mediterranean- very lovely.

[@selaconte]

I'm married with Thai and living in US right now, but we are looking our options to move there in the future...Congratulations and Blessings to you and your Family🙏🙏🙏

[@tomdurover]

This is absolutely amazing, such a beautiful place!

[@sjoankel1826]

Your house is absolutely beautiful with good taste in decorating ! Well done !

[@ThailandThomas]

The house is just beautiful Ryan. Great job. Hopefully I will be building a home in Ban Phai soon. Your home build videos have been inspiring. Thanks mate.

[@carlosfandangos8831]

The house build is awesome bro,as we all know majority of living is outdoors but you have created a beautiful family home for years to come.much love and respect brother ,rock on

[@jim.pearsall]

Beautiful home! 🏡🤩👏🏻

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thank you! 🤗

[@BrandenLesko]

Incredible unique build for a budget price...it looks amazing! 👍

[@james6513]

These videos are fantastic. I can’t believe I only came across your channel this evening. This is something we want to do over the next 2 years so we can escape having a bar in Pattaya in the next 5-10 years. I will definitely keep watching.

[@persistanceisresistance]

out door kitchen is normal and a great idea on so many levels....

[@AmericanInThailand]

Fantastic touches inside and out. Love that bathroom vanity! Great drone edits!

[@gumubear]

Hey Ryan, great video, your cottage looks amazing, also made our way to this after watching you and Paddy swap lives for the day, really interesting watching cheers

[@mikegray8776]

Hey Ryan, Great video - and superbly detailed costing. I used to do this stuff for a living, in a previous life - and I’ve rarely seen cost breakdowns so well done. It constantly amazes me how people can “consume” TOTALLY FREE and interesting material …. then criticise or disparage it !! But that’s the moaning 10% for you. Much less those who can’t work out what “furnishing” (as distinct from fittings) might cost ??

[@angelo_holism_shamanism]

Thank you so much. Inspiring for our project. Love and light to all of you.

[@charleshunter1954]

...and having a smart Thai wife (like me) is also a major asset... Great work. Good vids. A lot of work made to look easy !

[@alangraham4526]

Great job and totally suitable for your personal needs and likes, hope Damo gets better soon!

[@Geoff-s7p]

Absolutely beautiful. A testament to the skills of Thai builders

[@brentonvaux2981]

Love your build well done to you and family now enjoy

[@ramsoncole4605]

What a gorgeous house...I would literally copy that.

[@graemeaylward8313]

Thank you so much Ryan for this grand finale to the cottage build series. You are an amazing family who take everything in your stride. The cottage is a fantastic addition to your estate and you and Damo can be rightly proud of the outcome. It is beautiful. Praying that Damo will feel better soon and that she delivers a healthy Hugo soon. God bless you all always. Wishing you all a very Merry and Blessed Christmas. "May you be filled with the wonder of Mary, the obedience of Joseph, the joy of the angels, the eagerness of the shepherds, the determination of the magi, and the peace of the Christ child. Almighty God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit bless you now and forever.”

[@martinomelbourne2714]

You explained that very well Ryan and well done to you and your wife for achieving this. Nice vlog I enjoyed it.

[@TraderMate]

Appreciate the detailed breakdown mate. Builders alcohol expense gave me a chuckle.

[@TheWayner987]

It's a beautiful job done. I think all the cluster of buildings goes well together. The costs not crazy expensive either. Always thanks for sharing your journey, best regards to Damo best of luck with a smooth delivery with Hugo! Happy Holidays to you and the family 👍💞

[@thomday1016]

Thanks for the update, we are building soon, something modest and about 65sq mtr. Your video helps a lot. Praying for your wife and family.

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thank you and good to know they are helpful :)

[@helendymock8265]

looks awesome now its finished. enjoy your christmas and new year in it (and beyond)

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thanks, you too!

[@mattalford389]

Looks great Ryan! Thanks very much for the cost breakdown. Sounds about right 👍 You get a lot for your money in Thailand. I think that's what people can't believe!! It's so cheap compared to the West.

[@stefanlouw6395]

Brilliant in depth breakdown! You really put a lot of effort into making these vlogs, It's very clear to see and also very inspiring!!

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thank you Stefan 🙏

Probably the best break down I have ever seen.. REAL... when you added the alcohol your validity went thru the roof with me. Congratulations .

Well done Ryan and congratulations to your new house. Great breakdown of all the costs and I am impressed how cheap you could build, decorate and furnish. Looks all good to me.

[@memesissydollar3080]

What was the total amount it took to build and furnish ? Blind lady here

[@kingfin6]

Ryan, fabulous vlog series. Hope Hugo comes into the world stress free, and Damo is safe and well through the birth. Watch Otis as he sees his brother for the 1st time, it's precious.

[@paulrenwick6231]

Hi Ryan Love the house. With regards with one of my comments on one of your previous videos concerning the toilet system, I have noticed you have had it turned around into the right position in this video 😀👍

[@davidlevine1697]

thanks for a great informative video. well done.

[@kenhoffmann3523]

Ryan and family, As always, I enjoyed this vlog very much. My soon to beThai wife and I look to retire to rural Thailand after my retirement. Watching this video gives me some kind of idea what expenses we will be looking at. I am looking forward to your video on rural land prices and purchases. Wishing you, Damo and Tis the best through your family addition and the holidays.

[@lifeinruralthailand]

Thank you Ken - wishing you both all the best brother 🙏

[@tonystephenson500]

Beautiful home. I absolutely love watching your videos, very enjoyable and informative.

[@ArnoldCheok]

thank you for the detailed breakdown ....home sweet home. Cheers

[@henryfong3471]

i'd add a hand rail at the stairs as for safety. Especially for the elderly. But other than that very , very, cheap. And stunning.😊👌👍

[@c0rn15hman3]

This is the video I’ve been waiting for. Nicely done too. Thank you

[@mikegray8776]

The cottage has turned out stormingly well, and the finishes seem really excellent quality and sit very well together. Given a blank floor plan, no two families would come up with the same project - but the main consideration is (as you said) that this one achieves exactly what YOU wanted. I, personally, did not think the stairs and the mezz would work in such a tight area. …. I was wrong!! They have actually ADDED to the ambience of the living area! Well visualised, you two! Best wishes to Damo (and Hugo) for a trouble-free ‘process’ from here 🤞🏼

[@joblo692]

I have been looking thru your vlog and I think you have a wonderful life in Thailand. My wife and I have a house in Bueng Khan and are looking forward to move there in a couple of years and live a similar life as you do.We stay in Sweden now.

[@margarettownsley9500]

Fabulous vlog Ryan like you say you build how use wanted it I think it’s beautiful and perfect ‘ wishing demo well with a safe delivery can’t wait to see this little man joining the family and Otis I’m sure will be ever so happy with his little brother Hugo thank you guys

[@user-od9iz9cv1w]

I think your homestead is beautiful. So artistic and attractive. With electricity, plumbing and air conditioning you have a very comfortable life in an attractive setting. Building standards are very different, but given what appears to be a solid base, it will make a home that will last a long time. In Canada, and throughout NA, we tend to build disposable homes. They may have a stronger foundation, but the structure is just wood sticks with some cheap skin over top. After 30 years they get torn down and replaced. And they cost a lot.

[@aaronbux1]

Great video, Ryan! And much appreciation to Damo for putting the numbers together! Very informative and useful information! And great looking house!

[@Robbie9he]

Brilliant enjoyed the whole build, we only did not agree on the staircase, a home in paradise!

lovely home, great info.. thanks

[@WalkingmanPattaya]

I enjoyed watching and hearing the building and furnishing costs. The outdoor and balcony tile look awesome. Got it right on size and design. Always room to evolve on the land. Like that you built the outdoor kitchen first, makes sense here. Always glad to see the Family Ryan videos . Peace, Love, and Togetherness 

[@andrewhyland9212]

Individual home created by yourself for that price is superb value, plenty of room to expand as you said. Sit back and enjoy it now.

Absolutely brilliant sir!!! You've been nothing but an inspiration Ryan!

[@witchudar]

Fantastic home. I love all details even the chickens 😊

[@markbutterfield2189]

Excellent accounting job, very impressed.

[@zzzzzach]

Nice build Ryan. I think it looks great. Prices here in Kanchanaburi province are similar. It might be worth mentioning with the price here that you are using quality materials and there are options. It will be interesting to see how the ceiling hold up if there is any leak in the roof. I have seen this before. Did you build any precautions into that? Anyway, well done. Thanks for sharing.
