I BOUGHT A HOUSE In Koh Samui!

[@waila7190]

Great to see you back! Congratulations on the house too! All looks to be going well for you 😁 look forward to seeing the renovations in upcoming videos x

[@marcp108]

You really seem to have got your act together now and have a much more positive outlook about where you are going. I absolutely love Hua hin and just spent three months there. I’m 60 so I blend in perfectly. There is no boat to Pattaya - but why would you want to go there anyway? I’m guessing the buy price was around b500k at most. It looks like it has potential but I’m not sure it’s worth all the effort to turn it into two apartments. Make it into one reasonable home and then try short term rentals. If it doesn’t work, flip it and try again.

[@ThairishTimes]

Best of luck with the new house! Excited to see the renovation process. I reckon you paid 2 million baht.

[@jonklause5130]

Im looking forward to the remodel of your house. I really like to see things being built or restored as im a retired classic car restorer and just finished my house in Southern California now living in Koh Samui Thanks for taking the time to post content.

It would be good to know the procedure to safely buy property in Thailand without a Thai partner

[@Borracho-y-loco]

Good luck with the house, keep us updated!

[@jenniferwithey6443]

Glad I found your channel.

[@tookay5]

Hope things work out with the house. I will be following your journey to see as it progresses. Looks like you have some nice ideas to fix it up.

[@iRiShNFT]

LFG Congrats bro !!! Been wondering where you were

[@iRiShNFT]

Coming to thailand in a month , Hopefully will end up in Samui one of the days and catch up with you over food. If not , I wish you lots of luck with the new house , job and Bird watching

[@bigcambo]

Great to see you back mate and that everything is falling into place 👍🏻. I’m looking forward to the upcoming Vlogs !

[@louis20122]

It is a nice home. It just needs a little TLC. But I can live there full time while I fix or renovate it long term.

[@NickyDunn]

Hiya. Great to see you. I have lots of subs. But views on videos do not do the same. And like yourself. Working and life can get busy. And editing takes an age. Good luck with the Thai. Congratulations on your new home. Good luck finding another dog. I want a friend for Buddy. But I need a bigger house. Your future plans sound fantastic. And all you are going to do with your home. I would not have a clue what you paid. Lol. Great video. Exciting times. Wishing you a great week.

[@mmamommamo6152]

Hi there. Maybe you should try to interview the local Thai people ( the ones with good English) and let us hear how they live .how they work.how they survive. Thanks for the video

[@helenedinand1419]

Awesome! Hello hello! from France that I purchase an older house made of stones, renovating it at this moment and planning to rent it that I can come over to Thailand🤩 What an adventure it will be till it is ready for rental; I want to learn the max for when my time will come when I'll be in Tahiland.. Thank you for sharing

[@gum6y1]

You own a complete house with land I didn't think that was possible as a foreigner?

[@anthonydowling3356]

Its not .He will have formed a Company and bought it that way ,as he does not have a Thai wife .

[@gbtedx1157]

And hence will pay tax on any future profit btw

[@Ukboss1]

It's in a company's name

[@jenniferwithey6443]

@@gbtedx1157 Not sure about other Western countries, but here in the United States you would have to pay tax on rental net profits and on capital gains when selling regardless of if the property were in a corporation or just held as an individual.

[@jimcraiggeezer]

I reckon about 1.5 million baht.. given the location.. I don't know if you have any experience in the building industry but, the external doors that are fitted IE the smaller doors are internal grade really is so an upgrade is required. As for the insulation I agree try and fit as much as possible but, it will have limited effect due the general construction of the building.mas in single glazing and single skin walls but, everything helps..good luck.

[@Blueski888]

How solid is that plan to build a bridge? That’s news to me!

[@markh2615]

Hi good to see you , looks like a nice wee project for you,it's got potential 💯 , 2 mil bht🤷‍♂️

[@gastongeneral6861]

Yes, I agree lots of potential with that back stairway to the top apartment/unit.

[@mrdan7740]

600,000 baht to buy. And a 2,000,000 baht budget for the renovations would be my guesstimate.

[@jombali8891]

Agreed

[@steray7590]

Nice to see still there pal two jobs that will keep you busy the dog is looking old which hurts me really stay well your right it's all these young lads going around with pizbulls and Americans bullys even in Ireland 🇮🇪 thats wwre i am cutting there ears which is illegal the little sh#ts i was like that but never done that to a dog120k bhat its out of thev way needs some work that's my guess great to see u back pal

[@THAIPARADISE]

Hi is it easy to do O Visa 1 year or 3y in HH , what agency there and how much it cost ? (to compare if i do it in my country)

[@topgammar3763]

It probably costs about $55,000 USD.

[@adamaputesol1631]

How difficult is it to find a place to rent with a pet dog? We have a big boxer but he's trained like a champ.

[@thethairishsun]

Hi, each landlord has their own rules but I have to admit it can be difficult. During covid it was much easier and most people on my street now have pets but now things are back to normal you might struggle. Good luck though! 🤞

[@moondustgirl2132]

Unfortunately, life's has become super busy for me the past weeks so i couldn't really watch much vlogs anymore. I actually only watched the first 3 mins. of this. And of course, my primary support goes to the foreign youtubers vlogging here in PH coz they help promote tourism in our country. (We're World Travel Awards' World's Leading Beach and Dive Destination again btw.) Honestly, the only reason i watched yours is because you and your furbaby are both cute, lol. And you remind me of someone... Anyway, i notice furbaby is limping a bit. I know she has a degenerative condition. I just hope she's not in too much pain. Anyway, Merry and Blessed Christmas to you and your fam! 🎄✝🎄

[@thethairishsun]

Merry Christmas Moondust! 🎄⛄🎁 Thanks for stopping by when you are so busy! I hope I don't remind you of someone bad!? Haha ... I have a second dog now also! She was in the video after this one 🙂

[@moondustgirl2132]

@@thethairishsun Haha, no he's not someone bad. Just a confused guy i guess 😆. We're still friends actually. Oh nice to know you have another baby now! Will check the video out maybe later.

[@louis20122]

Can I buy a house like this in Thailand as a retiree? I think Thai government should let expats buying properties in bad shape like this and live and NOT RENT so they can improve or renovate or fix the house and make the area nice in general.

[@anthonydowling3356]

Its a shame how they gave so little garden with all that land at the back .Its common practise though throughout Thailand .I am guessing you paid B3M for it but i am not familiar with Samui prices .My experience is with Chiang mai .

[@gastongeneral6861]

My internet says B 3,000000 in us dollars is US$82,000 (US$82,236) Any advances on $US 82,000 ....going, going........? (1 million baht is about US$27,400 for those thinking in US dollars ;-) )

[@jombali8891]

Mostly expecting just 500k b

[@jankongtantikul6444]

6-8 million baht. But depends on the location exactly.

[@michaelwolff264]

😂😂

[@jombali8891]

No way

[@nicolacrickmar8829]

How did you manage to own the land and the house without using a Thai partner's name? Your dog is lovely, however are his legs arthritic or is it something else that is wrong with them?
