If you want to reduce or even eliminate the land and building tax, the solution is obvious — you should register on the property.

Even if you own several villas or apartments in Thailand, only one property can become your place of residence. To register on the property you need to put your name in the blue book (a house registration book). The blue book changes to yellow if a foreigner is registered in it.

When making a long-term investment, we would advise considering areas such as Ubud and the Bukit Peninsula. These areas are likely to retain their appeal to visitors, given their status as a cultural hub for Bali (Ubud) and the high number of luxurious oceanfront hotels (Bukit).

Our clients typically invest in Canggu property. They initially invest $140,000 at launch and then resell once the property price has increased by more than 30%, typically within a five-year period. However, in five years, we anticipate that this area may be overheated. This could result in a lack of new buildings, as the land may be fully developed.

We have observed that high-end properties are concentrated in the Bukit area, while more affordable options are available in Canggu, Berawa, and Umalas, catering to those seeking to spend between $100,000 and $200,000. These areas offer a convenient option for short-term rentals.

Some Phuket developers offer buyers the opportunity to use their projects as a financial instrument, in addition to rental yields. Essentially, by purchasing an apartment in a project without an instalment plan during the earliest stages of construction, buyers thereby finance the project, and developers are willing to pay up to 5% annual yield on this capital, even during the construction phase. This scheme is known as a pay-back scheme. It is a good way to get a double benefit: to buy an apartment at a more favourable price at the start of sales and to start earning income even before the apartment is rented out.

It is of the utmost importance to monitor the expiration dates of visas and long-term stay permits. Furthermore, it is advisable to contact the relevant authorities well in advance of the renewal deadline to ensure a smooth process. In Bali, it is particularly important to consider the numerous official holidays, which may result in fewer than anticipated remaining working days to renew your KITAS.

Boat Avenue leaves a lasting impression on many. It is a bustling location where stands selling affordable fruits, branded restaurants, street musicians, souvenir shops, and curious tourists with cameras coexist. The area is full of entertainment, including singing, dancing, and delicious food.

For those who enjoy a blend of moderately active and relaxing tourism, Kamala is an ideal destination. Firstly, it is more affordable than other popular areas of the island, such as Bang Tao, and has a lower influx of tourists. Secondly, the clean beach with numerous beach clubs offers the opportunity to relax in the sun during the day and enjoy lively establishments at night.

To fully appreciate the diversity of Phuket, it is recommended to travel by car and experience a ride in a local tuk-tuk (the auto rickshaw) at least once. The northern part of the island is quieter and more forested, with a predominantly Asian community, making it a popular choice for those seeking a secluded holiday. In contrast, the southern part of the island is a hub for tourists and expats, with a range of hotels and guest houses offering an Asian-inspired experience.
