Frequently Asked Questions
The strongest track records belong to publicly-listed groups (Sansiri PCL on SET, Origin Property on SET, Banyan Group on SGX) and to long-running Phuket-local specialists like Botanica (29+ delivered villa projects since 2015), Laguna Property (operating Phuket since 1992), VIP Thailand (since 1991) and The Title (since 2003). Public listing means audited financials and regulator oversight; long Phuket presence means project hand-overs you can physically inspect today.
Pull the developer's last 5 delivered projects, drive to each, talk to current owners, request the company's last 3 audited financial statements (Thai law requires them to be filed with DBD — the Department of Business Development), and verify the construction permit (Or-Hor-1) and EIA approval if the project is over 80 units. We do this independently for every project we recommend — see our Developer Reputation Checklist.
Generally yes — branded/listed developers carry less escrow and delivery risk, and you get a full English-speaking sales/legal team. The trade-off is price (10-20% premium over local equivalents) and longer queues for resale liquidity. For investment-only purchases under $300K, local Phuket specialists (The Title, VIP, Botanica entry-level) often deliver better price-to-yield economics.
A branded condo is licensed under a hotel or lifestyle brand (Banyan Tree, Angsana, MGallery, Ritz-Carlton, etc.). The hotel typically operates the rental program, manages housekeeping, and guarantees a service standard. Branded units usually price 20-40% above unbranded equivalents but rent at higher RevPAR and come with hotel-managed yields (often 6-9% net guaranteed for the first 3-5 years).
Banyan Group (Banyan Tree / Angsana / Cassia hotel-managed pools) and Laguna Property (Laguna Lakelands rental pool) historically deliver the highest verified yields — 6-9% net to owners after all hotel costs. Origin's One Origin and Sansiri's Plus Property in-house management are next, typically delivering 5-7% for self-rented units.
