Koh Samui is a perfect gem when it comes to living abroad. It’s a tropical island with bays and beaches backed by palms and a jungly, unspoiled interior with lush vegetation. It also has everything that most expatriates would need: shops, restaurants and nightlife come in a huge variety. The climate is renowned for being sunny, and thanks to Samui being one of the gulf islands it enjoys something of a microclimate, with less rain than most places in the nation. Not surprisingly it’s a popular spot when it comes to house hunting.
Whatever you’re looking for when it comes to a villa or a pied-a-terre, Koh Samui has it and this is particularly true of mid range real estate for sale Koh Samui. There are a variety of properties that are waiting to be snapped up. Some were built just a decade or so ago and there are always fresh batches coming on the market. The island favors small developments and stand-alone villas and you won’t find any sprawl. Nor are there high rises of any kind. Condominiums exist solely as low-rise constructions. The developers and local government are concerned that no kind of urban blight should affect the island, destroying or otherwise jeopardizing the natural beauty that it is so famed for.
At Siam Commercial Service, we pride ourselves on being able to offer a select range of some of the best mid range real estate for sale Koh Samui. In addition, we can advise you on everything that you will require as a future expat here on the island. Our services go well beyond the sale of the property. We have a legal department that can help you with every aspect of ensuring that all paperwork – personal, corporate and to do with the property itself – is up to date and completely in order. Thailand is a very easy country to emigrate to, but it is still of course necessary to deal with some legalities. These tend to be fairly straightforward but difficult to do by oneself without a working knowledge of the Thai language and the bureaucratic processes that have to be adhered to.
Properties in the island that you may be interested in may require repair or renovation. There is everything from fixer-uppers to the kind of place where you can simply put the key in the front door and nothing is required. Rest assured that if work on your property needs to be done, we can complete it within a time frame that you stipulate. We will also be able to keep within your budget. On Koh Samui renovations tend not to be as expensive as in many other countries; you will find that for a reasonable outlay everything can be achieved. Just to give one example, it will cost a lot less to install a luxury-style bathroom than it would in most western countries.
We can naturally arrange for the security of your property and we can schedule cleaning and/or maintenance on a regular basis or while you are absent from the island.
Although mid range real estate for sale Koh Samui is highly sought-after, there is considerable supply. We offer many properties that are near the sea and are set in unparalleled nature; gaze out from the decking of your swimming pool and you will be able to enjoy the kind of tropical views that Koh Samui is justly renowned for. Many of our properties are just a hop, skip and a jump from the ocean itself, allowing you to take advantage of the excellent swimming that the island’s beaches afford.
If you are more interested in living in the heartlands of Koh Samui, we have properties that are well away from the coast and are to be found in the glorious isolation of the hills towards the center of the island, or in the less developed southern part of the island. If you draw a line from Nathon to Lamai, all the land south of that line will be a lot less populated than the northern section. This southern and more traditional part of the island also tends to be comparatively cheaper.
Should you wish to live in a condominium or town house we also offer a selection that is bound to please. These types of properties will suit you particularly if you are operating a business nearby or simply wish to be in areas where there is a lot going on. Chaweng, for example, offers a complete range of amenities, including hospitals and is near the airport.
