Start with verification, not assumptions.
Before making a commitment, verify the property, the person or business representing the transaction, the relevant documents, the physical condition and any restrictions or obligations that may affect the deal.
Understand what right you are acquiring.
Property rights and transaction structures can differ. Land, condominium interests, leases and arrangements involving companies or other legal structures require careful review of the actual documents and circumstances.
Read the lease as carefully as the listing.
Confirm the parties, premises, term, rent, deposit, utilities, repairs, renewal, termination, handover conditions and any restrictions. Keep the signed agreement and payment records.
Listings connect people; they do not replace due diligence.
Properties may be supplied by owners, agents, agencies or other marketplace participants. Customers should independently confirm ownership, authority, availability, representations and transaction terms with the relevant party.
Make the important terms explicit.
Before signing or transferring funds, confirm who receives the payment, what it is for, refund conditions, completion requirements and each party's responsibilities. Keep copies of agreements, receipts and relevant communications.
Use the right adviser for the actual transaction.
Thai Properties provides marketplace information and tools. It does not provide individual legal advice. For transaction-specific questions, consult a qualified lawyer or other appropriately qualified professional who can review the actual documents and circumstances.
