  • Collin and I are back for day 2 of looking at condos for rent in Jomtien. He just retired and moved to the Pattaya area and now needs a place to live in Thailand. Come along and tour the units with us to find out what a Jomtien condo costs to rent. Check out the cost of living in Thailand and see which one he will choose as his new home.

    Great choice, Collin! Welcome to the neighborhood.

    This is an excellent format. You could start a trend with this one. The more realistic it gets, the better for YT'ers to judge value. Thanks for the effort

    Just watching Collin sweat through his shirt is a good wake up. Call for anybody wanting to move to Thailand. I live in South Florida in currently working for the post office delivering mail with a truck that doesn’t have a C so I think I could survive there but I’m originally from Maine and I don’t think a lot of my friends would like it there during this heat wave.

      He's lived in hot climates around the world and moved here from Vietnam.

      Lol... the heat and humidity are pretty much a year 'round occurrence. It's just hotter in the "winter" (Nov-Mar). I usually just carried a small microfiber towel everywhere I went because I was dripping! I did acclimate a bit after about a month. 😅

    Smart choice. What struck me was that the Riviera seemed so much more spacious than the Copa, which seemed much smaller due to the layout. The Aeras was the clear winner. More space and the price is right 👍

    Copacabana is a nightmare. Full of short stay AirBnb No respect for property. Garbage everywhere. Elevators you will wait for up to 10 minutes if not longer. It was great but now all downhill No more maintenance..

  • @georgeoshust793

  • @georgeoshust793
    @georgeoshust793 3 месяца назад +4

    The second one is 36000 BAHT per month. That's ridiculous!

    • @bobbyzipp9947
      @bobbyzipp9947 3 месяца назад

      25k at best. Premium for a new building and close to beach. They want double what other luxury buildings are asking.

    Last condo was my preferred choice. Looks more functional and it was spacious. I don’t understand all those who love Riviera condos, it’s just a mess of styles which makes it look overglamorous. As a single I don’t want to pay for play rooms and library or any other service space or expensive lights. I understand we have different taste, but it still surprises me. Good video though 👍

  • @TheDercomiszar
    @TheDercomiszar 3 месяца назад +1

    Great choice, I did like the first one for 18,000 but just for another 5000 you get so much more space, I know in a previous video you said you were looking at a two bedroom with that much space you could actually put in a small hideaway bed. If somebody comes to visit every once in a while I don’t know the facilities for that condo complex but I’m sure it’s nice.

    Great video, but it always drives me nutz when you have a Black kitchen, stainless steal appliances and a bright WHITE washer. I would have to call someone who does car wrap and wrap it in black to blend in. I see it all the time. Safe travels

  • @georgeoshust793

    The 3rd unit is way too expensive! 29 sq meters at 25000. OBSCENE!

  • @bobbyzipp9947
    @bobbyzipp9947 3 месяца назад +2

    Hard no on the price at Copacabana. 39sq for 36k more like 25k tops.

    • @RetiringToAsia
      @RetiringToAsia  3 месяца назад

      Copa is expensive

    • @realpropertymangement7640
      @realpropertymangement7640 2 месяца назад +1

      Copa is the shiny new toy in town, and that's what the Thai & Chinese buyers want. I looked at it and came to the same opinion as you... overpriced for what you get. In Jomtien, Aeras is good, as is Cetus. Reflection, if you can afford it. Further south is The Whale Marina, and even further down in Bang Saray, the Del Mare and Mirage. I'm more drawn to the north end... Na Kluea. Zire, Wong Amat Tower, North Point, and The Palm. View Talay 3A occassionaly has some nice units... oldie but a goodie. There is nothing I really care for up on Pratamnak. Maybe Panora. I'll skip anything in Central Pattaya.

    That area itself is kind of a dumpy beach area once you exit the condo grounds.
