Financing and Interest Rates

Reading the Trend
Prices in Krung Thep Maha Nakhon are essentially flat in nominal terms — which, after inflation, means slightly falling in real terms. Buyers have more time and more leverage than a year ago.
What to watch next month
- The next quarterly release of the house price index for Thailand (Q2 2026 is the latest) — whether annual growth keeps accelerating.
- Upcoming decisions by the Bank of Thailand — any move from 1.00% feeds through to mortgage pricing within weeks.
What This Means for Buyers, Sellers and Investors
Time is on your side — offers below asking are normal in a flat market, especially on stock listed for more than 90 days.
The first two weeks on the market matter most — price to the last comparable sale, not the highest asking price in the street.
Falling financing costs improve leveraged returns and widen the gap between yield and mortgage rate.
