How foreigners buy a villa in Thailand
Foreigners cannot own land in their own name in Thailand, so villas are usually bought in one of two ways. A registered lease of the land for up to 30 years, with the house owned in your name, is the most common. Some buyers use a Thai company structure, which must be set up correctly by a lawyer. Your lawyer will explain which suits you. Read our guide to foreign ownership for the details.
Where to look
Jomtien offers beach life and good schools within reach. Huay Yai and East Pattaya offer more land and larger villas for the price. Pratumnak and Wongamat are the premium choice close to the sea. See also pool villas for rent if you want to try an area first.
