Bangkok condo market jumps 35% in Q1
Bangkok’s property market enjoyed strong growth in the first quarter of this year, led by a 35 per cent jump in the number of condominium units released in Bangkok from the year-earlier period.
Some 14,600 units were added to the market in the capital for the quarter, said Surachet Kongchepp, a property market researcher with Surachet’s research showing that up to 66 per cent of the condominium launches are near mass transit systems.
This was especially evident in the area from Rama 9 Road to Huay Khwang, which saw 4,400 units released over the three months, he said. Up to 55 per cent of the units released in the period were sold, Surachet added.
Meanwhile, listed property companies have said their presales in the first quarter came in better than the numbers for the same period of last year. AP (Thailand) booked presales of Bt10 billion for the quarter, up 168 per cent from the same period of last year.
Of this take, up to 64 per cent – or Bt5.2 billion – came from low-rise residential projects, with Bt4.8 billion from condominium projects.
The company has reached 30 per cent of its projected presales target of Bt33.5 billion for the year, the company’s chief executive officer Anuphong Assavabhokhin said recently.
