Description

This is a condominium unit of 28.15 sq m in Kathu, Phuket, offered at an official auction held by the Legal Execution Department office in Phuket.

The unit comes with a condominium unit title and is sold free of mortgage. The official announcement lists the title holder as the occupant, so vacant possession is not guaranteed.

The auction follows clear rules. The department publishes an official appraisal and a schedule of rounds. If a round passes without bidders, the next one starts at a lower price under the department's rules. Every bidder places a security deposit on auction day. The final price is set at the auction and can be higher than the starting price if several bidders take part. The current round, its date, the starting price and our turnkey estimate are shown on this page and updated every day from the official announcement.

The price is built from three parts: the starting price of the current round, our support fee (a share of the hammer price) and a fixed lawyer fee. The page calculates the turnkey estimate, and a calculator shows the total for your own bidding limit. Government transfer fees are paid separately. If you do not win, you pay only a lot check advance. If you win, that advance counts towards the lawyer fee.

Here is what our support covers:

a lawyer checks the title, encumbrances and condominium debts;
we inspect the building outside and, if possible, inside;
we place the security deposit and bid up to your limit;
after a win, you pay the balance within 15 days (extension up to 3 months on request), then the title is registered at the Land Office, followed by handover and, if needed, eviction through the court officer.

Foreigners can own a condominium unit within the 49% foreign quota of the building, with funds transferred from abroad. Banks almost never lend for auction purchases, so plan to pay from your own funds. The purchase steps are shown on this page in the separate «How it works» block.

The risks are real. The former owner may still live in the unit, and eviction then goes through the enforcement procedure, with timing explained by our lawyer. An inside viewing is often impossible, and the condition at handover is not guaranteed.

This option suits a buyer who accepts these procedural risks, does not count on a bank loan and wants to bid with a legal check and local support.

How it works

1Choose a lot

The catalogue shows only condominiums a foreigner can register in freehold within the building quota. Send a request with your price limit.

2We check

The lawyer reviews the title deed, encumbrances, unpaid common fees and who occupies the unit. We inspect the property from outside and, when possible, inside. The check costs an advance of 30,000 THB, credited to the legal fee if you buy.

3We prepare

A service agreement, a power of attorney for bidding, and a transfer of funds from abroad with the FET form needed later for registration.

4We place the deposit

On auction day the deposit is paid to the Department; the amount is shown on the lot page. If the bid is not won, the deposit is returned in full.

5We bid

Our representative takes part in the auction and raises the price only up to your limit. You do not need to attend.

6You buy

After winning, the balance is paid within 15 days, extendable to three months on request. Our fee of 10% is calculated from the hammer price. Title registration at the Land Department; government fees are paid separately.

7You get the keys

If the previous owner still lives in the unit, eviction goes through the enforcement officer under the law and the lawyer handles it to the end. Then we help with renovation, rental or resale.

Honest about the risks

In most lots the previous owner or a tenant still lives there on auction day. Handover goes through enforcement proceedings, which takes time; the lawyer runs the process.
An inside inspection is often impossible before the purchase. The condition at handover is not guaranteed, so we budget for renovation from the start.
Lots with a transferable mortgage are not included in the catalogue.
The price can rise at the auction. We never bid above your limit, and if the lot goes higher, we find the next one.
A foreigner buys a condo only within the 49% building quota and with funds transferred from abroad. We verify the quota before the deposit.
