    In this video we talk about foreigners who invest their money into renovating homes that they can’t own in Thailand. We also show you the before and after of our old cottage that has been recently renovated by our friend Phil. Phil does not own this cottage but he decided to invest his money to make it as if it were his own. Would you do the same thing to live a more comfortable lifestyle, while living in a foreign country such as Thailand?

    The Thai Gift & Foreigner Joe UA-cam channel is seen by people from all around the world, which include Thai citizens, Thai/foreign couples and foreigners alike. We post videos of our journey while living in Thailand for the pleasure of our audience only. Our content is not meant to encourage/discourage or influence anyone to travel, live, work, marry, retire, rent, buy, build or own a home, land or business in Thailand. Our content covers a wide variety of topics including travel, food, real life stories, informational videos, homes, condos and land for sale or rent and much more. That being said, let's discuss "Foreigners cannot own land in Thailand". While this statement is true to a certain extent, there are many foreigners who own homes in Thailand with their Thai spouse and/or Thai partner. There are also many Thai citizens who watch the Thai Girl Gift & Foreigner Joe Channel who are interested in home/land rentals and sales. Our video title never says "House, Land ,Condo or business for sale for "Foreigners"... While there are ways for a foreigner to secure land and/or a business, before attempting to do so, it is highly encouraged and recommended to seek legal advice on the ways for foreigners to legally secure a home, land and/or open a business in Thailand. Also, ensure that you and your legal representative/ lawyer, throughly go over, fully understand and are in agreement with the terms and conditions as outlined in all contracts, prior to signing any legally binding contract.

    Many people rent houses in Thailand. The landlord benefits from any and all improvements. Personally, I'd buy [invest in] a condo. You own it and can sell it anytime in the future.

    Great video Joe and Gift. Unfortunately, farang can’t own the land because it is not Thai citizen. My fiancé and I are saving up the own house in Nan province and put her name. Cottage looks nice. Rental house can’t be remodel such as upgrade the room, kitchen and back terrace. In WA state it get crazy expensive because building more housing and less trees.

      Thank you 🙏 is notwithstanding, there are alternatives available to foreigners for successful land acquisition. The most common option is to set up your own Thai Limited Company to own the land on your behalf. Another option is to enter into a long term leasehold with the Landowner. It is a commonly unknown fact that although a foreigner cannot own land in Thailand, he can own the house or structure built thereon. One only has to apply for a construction permit to build the house in his own name. For more info on this topic, read the entire article in the link below

    I would not buy a house in Thailand , even if I could buy in my own name. Way to risky.

      That’s true. Especially, if they never owned a piece of property themselves. It’s a goal for everyone and if you can’t achieve that goal in the states you can definitely do so in Thailand.

    The cottage I liked when you first video and when you showed up in Prachuap Khiri Khan where you wanted to move to and Cookie was around. I knew it was the place to live in Thailand. Phil did a great job.

    Hi Joe. Eddie here from Pakistan. How much was spent in doing up the cottage? I couldn't find the video which you mentioned regarding the USD 19 hotel in Surathani. Perhaps you could give me the name if you did not make a video on it. Thanks a lot. Never get tired of seeing Gifts bye dance:)

    • @thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774
      @thaigirlgiftforeignerjoe7774  8 місяців тому

      I don’t know how much it cost to renovate the cottage. As far as the $19 dollar hotel, honestly I can’t remember. Sorry I can’t be of more help.
