The FINAL COST of Renovating This House in Thailand

[@zedbou5040]

You've done well. I built a 3 storey house in Vietnam and the builders did drive me to distraction. Attention to detail doesn't exist here either. I found it tough, as my profession was top end German kitchens design and installation in England. My standards are high, and that caused issues with my build. To me, everything was being done on the hoof, and the wrong way around. After intense discussion, they finally got it, and started to delivery some quality. I think it comes down to the fact that the builders there, and here in Vn, are site guys. It's a different animal who understands doing building work inside ones home. I learnt a heck of a lot with my build....for the next one, if I can be bothered. Good video, cheers.

this is my. nightmare renovation in a different country. congratulation for keeping your sanity.

[@WxM3008WxM]

Projects like this are so stressful and here you are working in a foreign place with builders who dont always understand you. Well done to you, brave man

[@BareKnuckle1886]

Yes well done. It’s hard enough trying to find decent tradespeople in your own country.

[@DiscoDrew]

Those builders are rough as toast… but if you pay peanuts you get 🙈🙉🙊 At the end of the day you’ve not done bad for the price, it’s definitely rentable. Very comprehensive video, thanks for sharing 👍

[@BareKnuckle1886]

You can pay top money too and still get dross

[@ViewTalay]

Looks great and good learnings for future projects

[@BareKnuckle1886]

Snags are a nightmare and really irritating and picking materials often take the longest amount of time. Watched all of these episodes back to back and found them really entertaining.

Hey! Cheers for watching and thanks for the kind comment 👍

[@globalpropertyinvestment]

Looks great mate, thanks for sharing your journey with us! I must admit I had a bit of a chuckle at the little setbacks during this video, its amazing how sometimes the builders just go do their own thing. Wish you the best now with the rental business!

[@thethairishsun]

Thank you 😊 ... Yeah there were a few moments 😅

[@vodkadave69]

Well done fella, looks great. Should be easy to rent and if I'm that way myself I'll happily take a room for a few weeks

[@thethairishsun]

Thank you 😊

[@Handledjim]

Thanks! Very informative, good to understand what costs involved in a renovation in Koh Samui and Great to see it has all taken shape...

[@thethairishsun]

Wow thanks so much for the "super thanks"!! And cheers for the nice comment!

[@mrdan7740]

Well done. You did a pretty good job overall!

[@waila7190]

It's looking great! LOVE those curtains 😍

[@thethairishsun]

Thanks so much!

[@marcp108]

From where you are now, compared to when you started, what an amazing transformation. You made AUD$30K stretch a long way. Working with Thai tradies is never easy - always keen to please - but sometimes dont get the 'finer' detail. I was looking at coming to Samui for NYE but the airfares are so expensive and I really dont want to get on the boat. Looking forward to seeing the walk thru. Well done.

[@thethairishsun]

Thanks very much Marc 😄 ... Ya NYE is just about the worst time you could come here tbh. Airfares crazy, hotels full, no motorbikes and roads full of divvies.

[@nicolacrickmar8829]

That was cheap £16,000 for the entire renovation, cleaning and furniture.....well done you. By the way are you from Merseyside?

[@peterchapman69]

[@thethairishsun]

Cheers! Rented out long term 🙂

[@poggmahon1052]

How much are you going to rent out for?

[@Stuffed007]

Did you put the house in a Thai brasses name like all the other simps here ?

[@olddouchebag]

You have made two super apartments for rent. Won't be long until you realise it was all worth it.

[@Jackassfellow]

Looks nice mate 😁🤌 im sure it will be a nice handy investment for your beautiful wee life you have over there.
