Forecast for the Thai Real Estate Market in 2024
Mr. Anukool Ratphitaksanti, Managing Director of Plus Property Co., Ltd., an expert ready to address all real estate service needs, analyzes that 2024 is a year of hope for a clearer recovery of the Thai economy. This is supported by government policies stimulating various sectors, such as reducing household expenses, which lowers living costs and leaves more disposable income for other expenditures, alongside welcoming tourists and opening the country as a production hub for large industrial factories for foreign businesses. This has allowed economic activities to resume fully, and real estate operators are adjusting their business plans to be more suitable, highlighting their unique strengths. Some companies are delaying project launches to assess the situation, while others are moving forward with new projects at full capacity, and some are expanding in the housing market while seeking revenue from other channels. Overall, the past year aligns with data from the Real Estate Information Center (REIC), which predicts that the housing market will recover due to adjustments by operators balancing unsold inventory and new products, with an expected 108,886 new housing units, a 13.7% increase. However, major real estate companies in the country continue to showcase impressive performance, reflecting a positive growth trend in the real estate business.
Nevertheless, the real estate market still faces several risk factors that need to be monitored and prepared for, including the direction of economic recovery in various countries that may impact Thailand, trends in rising energy and commodity prices, which pressure costs and inflation rates, and the increase in interest rates by banks. Nonetheless, Plus Property believes that in 2024, the real estate business still has growth potential, and operators must continuously adapt and seek new opportunities.
