Tenants are decreasing, causing owners to gradually sell.
The reason why second-hand houses in the lower middle class, priced below 1.5 million baht, are brought out for sale in large numbers. Most of them are condominiums. At one point, there was a project being developed at a low price of millions. and the BOI house project It is possible that at that time more than 10 rooms were bought by the lot to be rented out. because of good returns But later the return decreased.
In addition, there are fewer renters. Causing the owners to bring them out for sale in order to make a profit and get better returns, at the same time, at this price level that is a first-hand house on the market is harder to find. In addition, government measures promote real demand to have a house from transfer fee reduction measures For those who buy houses priced less than 3 million baht as well
“From the above factors raises the question that Lower-middle-class housing that has been developed and promoted to allow low-income people to really reach this group of people or not, and when looking further down, it was found that Some financial institutions and the Legal Execution Department also sold their assets. Which the data center must continue to study how much houses from this group are on the market”
