Default Pattaya Condos

Hi

There seems to be a race to the bottom - Who can make the cheapest smallest condo.

Some time back I was quite surprised at seeing 1 bedroom condos of 36 square meters being promoted, now built.

Since then they appear to be getting even smaller.


Out of curiosity I visited the showrooms of a Bangkok developer starting out in Pattaya.
Condo sizes 26 sq. mtr. and 34 sq. mtr.

Quite how you make a 1 bedroom condo out of 26 sq. mtr staggers me but true enough, they had.
Separate bedroom, a living room including kitchen area plus a small balcony.

It actually looked very nice.
The 34 sq.mtr equivalent was better of course and they had a studio of 34 sq.mtr that looked the best of the showroom condos.

Another developer is advertising 1 bedroom condos of 22 sq mtr.

I`m left wondering when a developer will introduce a sub 20 sq. mtr 1 bedroom condo.


Fine for BKK Thais visiting for the weekend and indeed holiday makers but to actually live somewhere so small ?


Just casual observations
