Holiday Home & Investment

For those looking to earn a rental income and work on your tan at the same time, Thailand is a popular choice. Two main options exist when looking to maximize returns and lifestyle benefits:

Developer Rental Management Programs - A project that is run with an onsite rental management program can be a perfect hands off investment that will allow owners some personal use during each calendar year of operation (approximately 30-90 days). Essentially projects are run like resorts with the operator and owners benefiting from economies of scale. 

3rd Party Management Companies - Alternatively those looking to utilize the property more frequently may prefer the flexibility that a 3rd party private management company will provide. Such companies will handle all nuances associated with managing the property and is a great option if owners are looking for more flexibility or if a Rental Management Program is not provided.
