Common questions
About buying, renting and using this site.
Buying
Can foreigners buy property in Chiang Mai?
Yes, a condo unit can be owned outright, as long as foreign owners hold no more than 49% of the building's total unit area. Land can't be owned by a foreigner directly; the usual options are a lease of up to 30 years or choosing a condo instead. The rules depend on the property, so ask us about the one you're interested in.
Renting
Are rental prices per month?
Yes, every rental price on the site is per month. Ask us about the deposit and contract length for the place you like.
What do I need to rent a place?
Usually a copy of your passport, a security deposit (often two months' rent) and the first month's rent. The exact terms depend on the landlord, so we'll confirm them for the property you choose.
