My $250 Chiang Mai, Thailand Apartment *wow* 

Been here 3 weeks and still just loving this apartment. It's so peaceful here and Chiang Mai is just as lovely as I remember it.

Nice place! We were also got lucky enough to find a very nice 1 bedroom off Chang Klan area, in Chiang Mai (20 minutes walk to night bazaar, )with access from bedroom and living room to balcony big kitchen with so many cabinets. Big bathroom with separate shower on the top floor (5th floor) only 4 units per floor for 9000 baht ($245 US) If you have the patience, you can find really good deals in non tourist area. My wife and I are both from CA and are retired early and living it up!! Thanks for your videos.

Love the Windows of this apartment, including in the bathroom which must face South or West for afternoon sunshine!

My mind was blown! Thank you! Beautiful space

Great apartment, agree with you 100 about moving away from the city. A bathtub is a must for me. All the best.

Some folks (very few obviously) responded that they FOR SURE knew of nicer places than this for the money. I challenged every one of them -- with a direct comment -- to name a nicer place, within 10 mins of the Old City -- WITHIN $200 USD per month of this price!!! And to name it with a link to the building. Guess how many responded? Zero. ;-) Pics or it didn't happen, folks. "Trust me bro" ain't gonna work for people who just want honesty and help finding a fantastic place at a super low place, in a secure building in a great location! Zero response is exactly what I expected ;-) I even gave them a $200 USD/month buffer and still nothing.

I've seen fancier places, but there is something about your place I really like. Maybe all the windows.

Nice place for holidays thank you for sharing this video

Amazing apartment! Would love to have a place like that

That is the kind of place I am hoping to get. Amazing views and quietness ! Thanks for the knowledge of Nong Hoi. I will retire in CM this September.

You have a really nice place for that price. Nice !

Great, cozy apartment, enjoy!

Apologies for mistake before.... this unit definitely does have a nice A/C unit!

I like it a lot. Great value.

Nice place man! I'm getting things ready to leave the US, hopefully by Thanksgiving or Christmas at the latest. I'm looking at the Philippines, Mexico and Thailand (Chiang Mai). I should be able to find decent rent wherever I go as I won't be wanting to live in or too near the city centers. Hope I can find a place with low rent that's as nice as yours! There's so much to sort out, figuring out all the ins and outs of visas in different countries, etc. Hopefully by the time I pick a place and leave here, I'll know what I'm doing! lol

I live in the Maya area, Your apartment is BEAUTIFUL!!!! I have a nice place with a pool; do you have a pool there?

Great apartment and such great value!

Many apologies to the folks that I told that the unit does not have A/C. IT DOES HAVE a very nice A/C Unit!!! I just forgot because I don't really use A/C in Chiang Mai because I'm not there during the hottest times. This unit DOES have A/C!

Great place !

Since you are friend of a man in the business, I want to say yes, what I would look for is a one bedroom, with room for a bicycle, a good reading chair by a screened window, fully furnished with a refrigerator, study desk, with even the pots, pans, and eating utensils, and kitchen ware to go with the apartment. I also really like ceiling fans to cut down on air conditioning. I am from the USA, and looking to get into a Thailand visa when able, only to wonder how long I could stay. I might even want to die there, whereas I am 72, and have no one to return to.......All if I am able.

So cool

nice apartment, what are the utility rates? or is it just a flat fee like you said? i usually worry about cheaper apartments inflating the unit price of electricity, the last place i stayed in Bangkok was 3.97 baht per unit from the MEA.

Was the water filtering system replaced by the owner ? Do they do this to all units, free or with a fee? Thank you. This unit looks amazing.

Love your video! My husband and I are moving to Chiang Mai in December. Would you feel comfortable putting us in contact with the owner?

That west facing wall of windows is going to get very very hot... the apartment looks nice. The neighborhood is nice too.

very nice place, any problems with mosquitos with so much openness?

Nice apartment!

I'll be there toward the end of the year and I was wondering if we could meet up? I would love to live there for my retirement years, I'm 63 yoa male.

Hey ! Thanks for sharing. How long are you going to stay there ? I'm moving from France to Thaïland in June, and looking for a similar place, similar price, in Chiang Mai too.

I stayed at Le Vieng Ping, nearby. Also great rates

So tell me Scott, what do you do for a living now that you travel full time? Are you living off your savings? Really great apartment for the price, wife and I want to explore Thailand. Is February or March a good time to visit?

Gee thats cheap great price would like to retire in chang mai would 20million baht and pension last me at least ten years living in Thailand thank you from Scott new Zealand

Nice place . Prefer air con but great price. I've just subscribed. Cheers

is the process of getting an apartment in Thiland difficult ? like how many hops do you gotta jump thru ?

Whats the second music track name? Thanks :)

Wow I think.

Is it close to the market and 7-11?

Hello Scott. I have enjoyed your video's thanks for posting. I'm living in Nong Hoi at the CM Riverside Condominium. My place is great but with me still traveling quite a bit this place of yours is way better priced for long term rental. Can you give me the name of the apartment please ?

How do you get to rent here? I'm looking for this type of apartment

Sweet!

Wow 😯

Hi Scott. You are very lucky. I am seriously considering living in Chiang Mai. I have a thousand questions. Is there any way to chat with you? My name is Mike. Take care.
