Quick answer
A property sale in Thailand typically takes 30 to 90 days from agreed price to transfer day. The Land Department charges a 2% transfer fee on the appraised value, usually split between buyer and seller. House4Sale handles title verification, pricing, marketing, negotiation and the land-office transfer for you.
Illustrative examples based on common case patterns, not any individual client's data
We visit the property, inspect its condition, measure usable area, photograph it and collect details of the surrounding amenities, then take copies of the title documents for verification.
1 day
We check the back of the deed at the land office for mortgages, servitudes, injunctions or transfer restrictions, and review city planning, expropriation lines and legal access.
3-7 working days
We compare recorded local sales, Treasury Department appraised values and competing listings, then propose a realistic price band with an expected time to sell.
2-3 days
Professional photos, a written property brief, listings on every channel and Facebook Ads targeted by area, age and interest, with buyers screened before viewings.
Ongoing until sold
We negotiate price and terms on your behalf and draft a sale and purchase agreement with clear conditions precedent, transfer date, cost allocation and default penalties.
3-7 days
If the buyer uses a mortgage we coordinate the bank valuation and paperwork, then book the transfer date and present both parties with the full cost breakdown in advance.
30-45 days
We attend with both parties, review the sale deed, verify every fee receipt and hand over keys and possession the same day.
Half a day
Four main charges: the 2% transfer fee on appraised value, Specific Business Tax at 3.3% when the property has been held under five years or the seller has been on the house registration under one year, stamp duty at 0.5% instead when SBT does not apply, and withholding tax computed from appraised value and years of ownership. We calculate the exact figures before transfer day.
A correctly priced house in urban Khon Kaen usually sells in three to six months. Bare land outside town can take six to twelve. The two biggest accelerators are realistic pricing and the quality of the listing photography.
Three percent of the achieved sale price, payable only once the transfer is completed at the land office. Nothing is charged up front, and photography, Facebook advertising and viewing trips are all at our cost.
Foreigners may own condominium units in their own name within the 49% foreign quota of the building's saleable area, with funds remitted from abroad and documented on an FET form. Land cannot be held personally; the lawful alternative is a registered 30-year lease.
At minimum: the title document type and whether it is transferable, encumbrances recorded on the deed, legal access to a public road, city-plan zoning and permitted use, and any expropriation line. House4Sale checks all five free of charge before you commit.
Our sale agreements always include a condition precedent: if financing is refused within the agreed period, the deposit is returned in full without penalty. This protects both sides and prevents the most common dispute we see.
