When you are moving to Bangkok, you will need to take some time to consider where you are going to live carefully, no matter whether you are looking to buy or rent a condo. Taking your tie and doing plenty of research can mean that you will be delighted with where you live and improve the quality of your life. If you are going to be moving to Bangkok soon and need some advice on finding a suitable place to live, below you will find plenty of tips to help you n your search.
Explore Bangkok Before You Arrive
You will want to start your search as early as you can for your new Bangkok apartment, and an excellent place to start is using Google Maps. If you have a job lined up already, you will want to look at your workplace location and look at the surrounding areas, which will help reduce your commute time. If your workplace is close to the BTS or MRT transport networks, you can opt for an area of the city close to these. Driving in Bangkok can be slow work, and it is made even slower when it is raining, so living a reasonable distance from your job will help improve the quality of your life.
Start Your Search Online
When you have an idea of where you want to live, you can then start to look at the different condo options in your chosen area. Whether you are looking for a 2 bedroom apartment in Sathorn or one in another area of the city, a search of the internet will show you many available options. You will need to consider what amenities you want in your condo building to help make you comfortable, and a swimming pool and gym are commonly found in many buildings, as well as 24-hour security. Ensuring there are shops, dentists, doctors, hairdressers, and other facilities close by will also help make your life more comfortable.
Consider Using A Property Agent
You can also use a property agent’s services to help you find the perfect condo, and the beauty of this is that it will not cost you anything. The property agent will receive a fee from the person renting or selling the condo, so it is within their interests to ensure they find the best unit for you.
Once you have found the ideal condo, all that s left is to get to Bangkok and move in and start the next chapter of your life living in the Big Mango.
