Should I buy or rent a home in Phuket?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Phuket, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Phuket can be a great investment, as the area is known for its beautiful beaches and vibrant culture. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in the area, as well as the availability of rental properties. Renting a home in Phuket can be a great option for those who are looking for a more flexible living situation, as it allows for more freedom to explore the area and its attractions. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Phuket should be based on individual needs and preferences," remarked another expat who made the move to Phuket, Thailand.
