Looking at houses yesterday for rent and the difference between Bangkok and Pattaya is stunning. In Bangkok they are renting out houses for 350 000 THB a month and you can get the same house in Pattaya for 60 000 – 100 000 THB.
The house for 350 000 is not even in central Bangkok and if you add another hour to the traffic you just might move to Pattaya or at least put the family there. Then rent an apartment in central Bangkok and enjoy holiday quality life from Friday to Monday.
There is a 200 000 THB house in Pattaya for rent with infinite pool down to the beach so why rent or 350 000 in Bangkok.
So why is the difference so big? Well it’s mainly because all the companies are renting the houses for the employees working here and it is still cheap for them.
If you want to have real fun for your renting money you can buy a 300 Sqm big house with over 3200 sqm land for 200 000 THB. That’s right the rail way station house in the town of Gallo will be yours for the same kind of money you can rent a house in Thailand for one month.

I never saw a house in a add that is 5000 THB but sure if you know where to look and life in that area maybe so. Please take some photos or post a link so i can see them and i will be happy to tell the readers about it.

i don’t know where you are looking for houses, but a normal house, lets say around 100 sqm plus garden is around 5000 baht per month. that’s in bangkok and in an area around bangna. i don’t know about houses with infinity pools, but for my understanding that can still has to be in relation to what i know.
you can still rent a house and build the pool by yourself, can’t imagine any landlord who would mind to get a free pool 😉
i think someone is trying to rip you off largescale.
