Condo Developments: Which Ones to Rent and Which Ones to Avoid

Most Bangkok condos come from a dozen or so listed developers. Here’s how Sansiri, LPN, AP, Ananda, Noble, Land and Houses and the rest compare on build quality, location and after-sales, and what to check before you rent or buy.

While there are independent condo builders out there, the majority of condos are built and run by several key players under different brands.
