October 2026 at a Glance

House Prices and Trends

No free, official monthly price series is published for Bangkok specifically, so this section uses the national index for Thailand as the reference; local asking-price movements typically follow the national direction with a lag of one to two quarters.

The national house price index for Thailand rose 2.4% year on year in Q2 2026 and was +0.8% against the previous quarter, according to BIS, Residential property prices (nominal). A year earlier the annual rate was +2.8%, so growth has held broadly steady over twelve months. The quarter-on-quarter reading confirms the acceleration rather than a base effect.

Financing and Interest Rates

The Bank of Thailand’s policy rate was 1.00% in September 2026 (BIS, Central bank policy rates). The easing cycle — 0.50 points lower than a year ago — is the main tailwind for demand.
