Estimates use Thailand's buyer share of the transfer fee (freehold/company) or lease registration + stamp (leasehold), plus conveyancing and due-diligence legal fees; furnishing & STR launch covers furniture, appliances and launch photography. Actual legal fees vary — budget extra for surveyor and bank fees if financing. Working capital (2–3 months operating buffer) not included.

Ownership: Leasehold — 28 years remaining

Registered leasehold — Thai law caps registered terms at 30 years; longer horizons rely on contractual renewal options (often structured 30+30+30). Renewals are a contract right, not a statutory one — have a Thai lawyer verify the renewal mechanics before purchase.

What it earns, what it costs to own, and the net yield

Financial analysis
· Brixfox Standard · Non-resident · Fully managed
Leasehold · 28 yrs remaining
Fully managed is the Brixfox Standard shown on every card: a full-service manager's commission, charged on top of the Airbnb/Booking channel fees (not the cleaning cost — changeovers are funded by guest cleaning fees; you bear the residual). Self-managed drops the commission; the channel fees stay, because the platform is paid whoever manages, and you pay staff/local operations, a higher cleaning residual and your own time directly. Both scenarios divide the SAME gross revenue — the toggle changes the cost stack, not the revenue. That revenue is observed from actively-operated comps, so self-managed assumes you match their performance.Both scenarios share the same projected revenue — the toggle changes who runs the property and what that costs, not what it earns.
Net yieldNet operating income ÷ all-in investment. After local operating taxes; before home-country personal tax and financing costs. Modelled from observed market performance of comparable Airbnb listings.
Gross yield · all-in basis
After lease amortisation:A leasehold expires; we amortise your all-in investment straight-line over the remaining term. This is the honest return on a wasting asset — most tools ignore it.

Income tax is Thai personal income tax on 70% of gross rent (the standard 30% deduction), at the 0–35% rates and before any personal allowance. The 15% a Thai payer withholds from a non-resident's rent is credited against this on the tax return, so it is not an extra cost. Financing is not modelled.

Leasehold economics
A leasehold expires — the villa returns to the landowner and has no resale value at the end of the term. We write the all-in investment off straight-line over the remaining years and show the return after that annual cost. Most tools ignore this.
