Ownership structures and short-term rental rules.
Two questions decide whether a projected yield is achievable at all: how you hold the property, and whether it can legally rent short-term.
How ownership works
Foreigners can own condominium units outright within the 49% foreign quota of a building — the cleanest structure, with a title deed in your name. Land and villas cannot be foreign-owned directly: they are held on registered 30-year leaseholds (often structured 30+30+30 with contractual renewals) or through a Thai limited company. Each structure carries different acquisition costs, security and exit liquidity — every listing here is labelled, and the ownership-security score prices the difference in.
Short-term rental — the Hotel Act
Renting for under 30 days without a hotel licence is technically an offence under the Thai Hotel Act. In practice, most Phuket and Koh Samui stock operates short-term through licensed buildings, branded-residence rental programs, or villa-estate management companies that hold the permits. Condo juristic persons can also prohibit daily rental outright.
Buyer checkpoint
Before underwriting daily-rental income, confirm how the specific building or estate is permitted to operate, and have a Thai lawyer verify the ownership structure and (for leaseholds) the renewal mechanics. Rules and enforcement vary by island and municipality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can foreigners buy property in Thailand?
Yes, with structure. Foreigners can own condominium units outright (foreign freehold, within the 49% foreign quota of a building), while land and villas are held on registered 30-year leaseholds (often structured 30+30+30) or via a Thai company. Each structure has different costs and security — every listing here shows its ownership type, and the score prices it in.
Is short-term renting legal in Thailand?
Under the Hotel Act, renting for under 30 days without a hotel licence is technically an offence. In practice most Phuket and Koh Samui stock operates short-term through licensed buildings, branded-residence rental programs, or villa-estate management companies. Verify how the specific building or estate is permitted before underwriting daily rental income — we flag this on every listing.
How is net yield calculated?
True net: projected rental income minus realistic operating costs (management, utilities, common-area fees, maintenance, insurance, Thai income tax) over the all-in acquisition cost (price + transfer or lease-registration fees, legal, furnishing). It is the number you actually keep as a remote, fully-managed owner — not gross-on-asking. If a listing promises double digits, question the assumptions.
Where does this data come from?
Brixfox tracks 24,000+ live Airbnb availability calendars across Phuket, Koh Samui and the Thai islands and derives occupancy, ADR and net yield from observed bookings — the same engine behind our Bali, Portugal, Spain and Dubai markets. Real market data, not survey estimates.
