1. House price
House prices in Bangkok are very diverse, ranging from millions to tens of millions of baht.
By easy access projects may start at around 3-5 million baht.
While projects in a good location or luxury level may start at 10 million baht or more to 50-100 million baht.
2. Down payment
Having a sufficient down payment reduces the long-term debt burden. A down payment should generally be prepared for about 10-20% of the house price.
3. Other liabilities
If other liabilities, such as car installments, credit cards, or personal loans, affect the ability to borrow home money.
4. Monthly income
The main factors banks use to determine loan approval. Usually, banks require a monthly home installment balance of no more than 40-50% of total income.

🔺 calculate initial installment capacity.
Typically, banks provide maximum loan limits that bring monthly installments to no more than 40-50% of revenue.
This means that if you want to pay a house in Bangkok for 3 million baht, you will need to earn about 50,000 baht per month (in the absence of other liabilities) to make the monthly installment amount around 15,000 baht.
• Salary 30,000 baht can be borrowed up to 2-3 million baht (subject to other liabilities)
• Salary 50,000 baht can be borrowed up to 5-6 million baht (subject to other liabilities)
• Salary 100,000 baht can be borrowed up to about 10 million baht (subject to other liabilities)
🔺 the price of the house you want to buy depends on the location and quality of the project.
• Single House with easy access price (starting from 3 to 8 million baht)
Usually in suburban areas or locations that are not very close to the city, such as Lat Krabang, Canal Three Wah, Nongkam, various Buddha counties, which may require a salary of 30,000 to 50,000 baht or more to obtain loans and installments comfortably.
• Intermediate Priced Single House (Starting 10 - 20 Million Baht)
Usually in more potential locations, such as Bang Na, Ramindra, Bangkok Athletics, Rajasthan, with a salary of at least 70,000 to 100,000 baht or more to be relaxed.
• Single houses with upper prices (starting from 25 to 50 million baht) are usually located in the top locations such as Sukhumvit, Sathorn, Pinklao and should have a salary above 100,000 baht.
🏠 Things to prepare for if you're going to buy a house.
• Prepare a down payment to reduce the loan amount and installment burden each month.
• Should take good care of financial credit history, no bad debts or delayed payment history
• Consult the Bank, as the above information is due only to part of the assessment.
Should contact the banks you are interested in to assess their actual borrowing ability, as each bank has different criteria and promotions.
And if one person is too heavy, one person's salary is not enough, borrowing with a spouse or family will increase the loan limit, making it more likely to buy a house at a higher price.
Think about work, no time or housing problems. Think about it.
