With a income of 9-10% per year and apartment prices starting from $110,000, Phuket property has become one of the most attractive investments in Asia.
However, behind the brilliant statistics there is a systemic problem:
up to 30% of owners lose income due to opaque schemes and negligence of management companies.
up to 30% of owners lose income due to opaque schemes and negligence of management companies.
The scale of the problem:
what management companies are hiding
- Key violations in the industry:
- Distortion of data on occupancy and real rental income
- Artificially inflating operating costs by 25-30%
- Lack of documentary evidence of expenses
- Limiting access of owners to reservation systems
- Financial implications:
- Owner losses reach 25-35% of potential income.
- The ROI period for investments increases by 1.5-2 times.
- Real income drops from 9-10% to 3-5%, and in some cases goes into the negative.

Market prospects and investment opportunities
Why Phuket market continues to grow in 2025
- Infrastructure development: the expansion of the international airport and the construction of a light rail metro increase the transport accessibility of the island.
- New DTV visa for digital professionals: stimulates demand for long-term rentals, increasing occupancy by 15%.
- Limited land supply: less than 15% of the island is available for development, as most of Phuket is located in the area of national parks, nature reserves and protected areas.
This restriction makes land more and more valuable and stimulates a stable increase in the value of properties
Expert forecast:
Property prices in Phuket are projected to grow by 5-7% per year, while rental incomes remain high, up to 10% per year.
