The average Pattaya market is nearly flat. The official REIC condominium price index for Chonburi (2022 base = 100) sits at just 102 points as of Q4 2025, up 0.1% year-on-year. Cause: an oversupply of budget-segment and inland developments.
But proven coastal locations tell a different story. Well-located units are up 8-12%+ over the past two years, and prices in the premium beachfront segment (Wong Amat) run up to ฿188,000/sqm. Beachfront properties sell for at least 20% more than comparable inland properties.
Net rental yields of 6-10%, depending on location and segment — replace with actual current figures for the specific units you're selling
New-build carries a ~22% premium over a comparable resale unit in the same area — a trade-off clients make deliberately for liquidity and rental appeal, not a hidden markup
Infrastructure catalysts: U-Tapao airport expansion, Bangkok–Pattaya high-speed rail — factors that have historically moved price-per-sqm in specific locations over a 3–5 year horizon, not market-wide
Clear legal framework for foreign buyers: 49% freehold quota in condominiums, leasehold structures — a market with transparent rules, if you know how to navigate them
