Thailand has become Asia's largest market for branded residences, with a new industry report valuing the sector at over 205 billion baht, up 13% year on year. Phuket ranks as the region's largest resort and villa branded market, with strong demand from international buyers.

Branded residences pair private ownership with hotel-standard service and design, a category increasingly popular with buyers seeking a lifestyle purchase and a well-positioned asset.

Leasehold or freehold? With Thailand's property ownership rules under the spotlight this year, understanding the difference matters more than ever.

Freehold gives full, unrestricted ownership in your own name, available to foreign buyers on qualifying condominiums within the legal foreign quota.

Leasehold grants long-term usage rights, typically up to 30 years, with renewal terms set by the landowner. Commonly used for villas and land-based property.

Neither is right or wrong on its own. It depends on your goals, timeline and risk appetite.

Dusk over Phuket. There's a particular hour here when the sky turns, and the water goes still, and a good pool captures both.
If you're considering a home in Phuket, this is the kind of moment worth building a life around.
