Help in selling a house in Bangkok (not an advert!!)

[email protected]

i am in bkk

If it can be used or is suitable for commercial use (restaurant, bar, hostel, guesthouse, etc) we will take it on to sell, but we don't do straight residential housing.  66.asianbusinessbrokers.com

Hi Chris - it took me 3 years to sell my house which was not only in mint condition, super cool design, functional and for an extremely good price. I have had contact with many agents, individual and big ones. NONE of it worked. The agents (sorry guys) be it local or faring where worthless. Listed the wrong property, wrong price added a swimming pool, didn't knew the location - my list goes on. Of the 50+ agents and websites I been through only 2 agents came to see the house in advance, first one wanted money upfront, second one was EXCELLENT named Irene Hammer - try contact her on [email protected] - the only one I believed could sell our house.

She didn't sell our house though as we found our own buyer. We advertised in classified on BK Magazine - that was the best investment ever for marketing. Got calls every week and combined with a website, thats how we sold our house.

Hi Claus

That's very good information. Thanks a lot. I am helping a friend and not sure what experience they have had so far. We can try Irene though and maybe the magazine.

Excellent...thanks

Hi there...not sure if my friend minds how it's used after they sell it but will the price be lower if sold for business?

The price doesn't change, but is it near other businesses?  Does it look like it would be suitable for a restaurant or a bar or a massage, etc???  Is it in a good 'business' location - close to other businesses, passing foot-traffic???

From what I understand its in a residential area. It's just a house in a street of houses. I understand your point...nothing to say that any house can't be used commercially but it fits better in a commercial district when it's being used for that purpose.

OK, sorry but doesn't look like we can help you.

Hi Anthony

Not sure it will help for you as you are in Pattaya, but it was BK Magazine which is a free lifestyle magazine available at many cafe / restaurants in Bangkok. We advertised with a picture, short text and link to our website (think its still online actually bomancreative.com/house) and as there were not many houses for sales here we got exposed very well.

Best...

Hi Claus,

You have no idea how much I appreciate your post.  Thank you.

I have a property in Pattaya, very upscale in gated community, and have been trying to sell through agent for 1 year but no avail.  Your post gave me encouragement.

Would you be kind to share with me the name of the magazine where yo advertise your property which gave you such success as you mentioned on your post?  I would like to place an advert on the same magazine hoping to get as many calls as possible.

Thank you again for your help.
