My name is Klaus (also go by Freddy), a former bean counter making up for lost time.
In 2018 I left the nine to five world to chase new experiences at home and abroad. March 2020 comes along and the world stops, so did the ability to travel.
The global situation meant that I was to be separated from the mrs and little one for the next 12 months. I came back to Thailand in March 2021 with the intention to join my little family.
Originally I started this channel because I thought I would need something to keep me occupied while living in Thailand, something to keep me out of trouble .. With a young daughter you quickly learn that spare time is a thing of the past :) If I can add a few videos here and there just for the memories, ill be happy :)
Beautiful family and always nice to see grandparents with their grandchildren! Just curious...I have a question, are you and your parents perhaps of Dutch-Indoeuropean descent? I know that after Indonesia's independence from the Netherlands, many Dutch-Indoeuropean people went to Australia.
Fantastic. Babies grow so fast,🥰. I'm Aussie, almost 70 years old, have 3 sons, all out in the world. 😂. Great to see your parents had a chance to meet your family. All the best to you and family. 😇❤️
Nice video. Well done also, congratulations on marriage and having a beautiful baby. Yes to being very informative. Always nice to see someone getting on with their life and enjoying themselves in the process. Good luck with the future and hope you all enjoy happiness and prosperity. 👍❤️😇
If your marriage fails or when you die, you have no control over what happens to the land. If your wife (or ex-wife) wants to sell the land for profit or to pay off debts, you will have no say in the matter.
@@freddyjingjo Thanks..So if you can lease land from your wife for 30 years and also own the house,then if the relationship goes pear-shaped the foreigners investment is protected?
SO. The land bordering you can be bought for 800,000 baht. You paid 1,800,000 for yours. It would appear to me that someone saw the wealthy farang coming and took advantage of him.
Sorry just a question. When you said the leasehold option, if the Thai owner of the land passes away…. You didn’t mean that the relatives can take the land back within the 30 year agreed lease ? Do you mean at the end of the lease ? Surely if you’re 10 years in and your landowner dies they can’t just break contract once they have inherited it. I get they can stop agree to not renew it after 30 but can you just clarify this
The contract is a contract, but yes once the lease is over they as owners can take back the land. These things are all theory based because 30 years is a long time.. not sure how many cases (good or bad) are documented :)
I keep hoping to find a video that makes sense, but if you have lived in Pattaya for 8-9 months and still don't have a clue how to pronounce "Pattaya" then your advice is meaningless.
WOW ! ! ! ! That price makes me feel FANTASIC right now ! I bought two pieces of property just outside of Korat in a "village" of about 300 too. 18m × 54m each. 36m × 54m total. About 0.5 acres or 1.25 Rai. I got each for 200,000 Baht/$6,000 Usd..... total $12,000. They are adjacent to her property 18m × 54m. Combine??? 0.75 acres or 1.8 Rai.... I went with #2 also. The swimming pond, car port, patio with roof, a 2023 Isuzu V-Cross, braces for her daughter and both nieces, private school, and of course her mom..... are all way more expensive than a plot, or two. I'm 58. I've never had more fun SPENDING money in all my life. I hope your happiness continues. Thank you for the clip.... If you want swimming pond ideas. No chlorine ! ! !. Just let me know. It's CHEAP. Teaching a child to swim is IMPORTANT. All three (daughter and two cousins) are swimming like PLA (fish). Thanks again.
Brilliant block of land and consideration for your daughters future… A corner block on the highway opens up a multitude of business opportunities from beverage stop to hamburger barn…trust me, I’m Greek Australian and I know. I’m looking at retiring in Isaan and renting my home in Australia in order to live like a king 👑 in my twilight years 😊😊
some misconceptions here. None of the 3 options allow a foreigner to own land. Also the 30 plus 30 year lease is a not legal. The max lease period is 30 years.
@@freddyjingjo Depends if you understand the risks of using noninees, lawyers or thais to hold your minority interest in property. Even if you rent you'll probably come out ahead in the long run unless you're paying all cash as the cost of interest is higher than the rent and the price usually won't go up.
That was interesting about buying a land in Thailand, but my situation is definitely different I myself was born in Thailand and only being a Thai citizen for 20 years then became the US citizen for more than 50 years actually I was born in Bangkok both of my parents are dead and left us some land for all of us myself and my siblings, I myself Almost 75 years old would love to retire and die where I was born. I enjoyed your story about buying a land in Thailand absolutely very interesting to learn all about a foreigns cannot buy a land in Thailand.
Apparently it used to belong to the local school, now its administered by local government/council etc. usually during local elections for ppl to cast votes.
Awesome congratulations for your daughter becoming a landowner I don't know if I'm going to marry when I come to Thailand so I have to consider all my options Land least might not be too bad for 30 years
