What a square metre costs today

Advertised gross yield

Across 881 Bangkok condos listed for both sale and rent, so price and rent come from the same unit, the median advertised gross yield is 4.4%. The middle half sits between 3.9% and 5.0%. It is measured on asking prices and is before costs, vacancy and tax; see the methodology for what net yield would subtract.

The Bank of Thailand policy rate is 1.0% (since 26 Aug 2026). In Oct 2026, the average MRR of banks registered in Thailand, the rate most home loans are priced from, was 7.4%, and their MLR was 7.0%. Compare that with the 4.4% median advertised gross yield. Mortgages are usually offered at MRR minus a discount for the first years, so ask your bank for its actual rate. Most foreign buyers pay cash.
