These are the properties I hold today, not a market average. Prices are what the seller asks; where an owner keeps the figure private, the row says so.
Thai law does not allow a foreigner to hold land freehold. This is the part most buyers discover late, and it is the whole reason the question exists.
A house and the land under it are separate assets in Thailand. A foreigner can own the structure outright while the land is held another way.
A registered lease on the land, usually thirty years, or ownership through a Thai company with genuine Thai shareholders who actually put in capital.
Using Thai citizens as nominee shareholders to control land is a criminal offence under the Foreign Business Act. Real estate is under heightened scrutiny in 2025-2026 — the Phuket raids of 2024 produced seventeen criminal cases. If an agent offers you this as a normal arrangement, walk away.
That quota applies to condominium buildings, by floor area. It has nothing to do with houses, and confusing the two is the most common mistake in Pattaya buyer forums.
