Hotel Act — verify short-let permits before buying

Occupancy

Net yield is after Thai rental income tax (modelled as a conservative blended non-resident rate) and assumes fully-managed short-term letting — confirm the treatment with a Thai tax adviser. Sub-30-day rentals require the building or estate to be appropriately permitted under the Hotel Act.
