Housing Projects

Post by handsome-Dane » July 11, 2008, 5:38 pm

The Cellini Housing project posted on the other forum looks ok. Anything looks good on picture. Question is are there any skill builders and engineers to build it.
Whats the price and size for a house like that.?

Believe me it looks better in real life, the photos don't do it justice.

View it yourself and you'll know what I mean. ;)

Well Mr. beer monkey I havent seen it, so I will still put a questionmark about it.
I seen many house in Thailand I lived in one and there was a lots of needs and remarks about the way they are building. The standard for builders in Thailand are low. I know it because all my life I been doing construction work from house, roads to airports etc.

But again Lee, it looks good.. But But But..

I don't have all the details, specifications, prices etc. I would suggest contacting them when you arrive. I'm sure you'll agree that the quality is of the highest standard.

they are really nicely finished, but they are jammed in like most estates, they are constructed in red thai bricks so they soak up the heat, and to be honest not in the nicest part of town . the prices are silly for this area, 10 million for the back of the estate, if you want one on a corner expect to pay a lot more. in my opinion a really really huge white elephant, the only one they have managed to sell is to the owner of the project, if you can call that sold !!!!!!!!

my source was thier sales office, but it was 2 months ago. so how many have they sold? or are they just booked, hard to believe any at that price with the current credit crunch.

A friend and I visited the site a few months ago and were told about half of the sites have been sold. My friend knows of at least one foreigner who has bought a home there. The home we toured during our visit was only about 50% complete when we toured, but we noticed only 2 wires hanging out the wall outlets. When we inquired about the lack of ground wires, the girl told us the estate didn't have to comply with that requirement. Something to do with them getting approval for the estate before the 3-wire requirement was made mandatory. Don't know if they've since installed ground wires, but if not, that'd be a serious deficiency in my book.

The Thai's will buy there for the 'prestige' value. A foreigner will buy there because he hasn't done his homework and doesn't understand the shoddy Thai building practices (no ground wires, red brick walls, :roll: ) who knows what else is skimped on? The foreigner will simply look at the 'surface' features and will perceive quality when the opposite is probably true.

Nice tiles, tubs, and furniture don't make a quality-built house. ;)

I HAVE NOT LOOKED AT THE PRICES AROUND, BUT I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT FOR 10 MIL, YOU WOULD BE ABLE TO BUY A BEACH FRONT PROPERTY, IN PLACES SUCH AS HUA HIN &CHA AM!
