| A few days ago, Nada and I inspected the property we hope to rent. It's a private rental, only fifteen minutes from Hua Hin city centre in a tranquil development of around thirty houses. It appears most of the properties are privately owned, which is, in my opinion, a good thing. The house has four bedrooms but is only partially furnished. This means we have to buy items such as a washing machine, table and chairs, blinds and we need to have an air conditioning unit installed in the main living area...plus some kitchen utensils. Nada already owns a fridge. The property has an outbuilding that has an outdoor cooking area, a washroom and a spare room we will use for storage. There's a large yard with an established garden. The entrance features two carved wooden doors. Tiled throughout, with high ceilings and fly screens on all doors and windows (except the entrance). Later today, we will meet with the owner to sign a two-year lease. We negotiated the terms from 20k to 16k baht per month. Presently, I pay 28k per month, which means over two years, I will save 288k baht (or USD8700). The house is very private and in pristine condition. I consider it to be a great deal, and once the agreement is signed, I can relax, knowing I have secured housing for the next couple of years. I'm looking forward to having no cigarette smoke wafting through my home from inconsiderate neighbours and the noise coming from the construction site next door will no longer affect my day-to-day living. Overall, things are indeed, looking up. |
