Possible to rent a condo for only 3 months?

Post by **ugotguts** » March 23, 2015, 5:43 pm

Hi Everyone

Is it possible to rent a condo unit for 3 months? I understand that many on at least half a year lease?

I tried searching on the forum and found out that there is some condo near UD Town. Anyone staying there? How is it like?

I see you have left messages on 2 advertisements.

Much better to send them a private message or send an email.

Many people do not check the adverts.

Seems like it would be possible to rent a condo for only 3 months right?

Depends entirely on the owner.
It would be difficult to rent a house for that short a time..not impossible, but difficult & you would have to try a great many properties before you found one.
All the condos in Udon are brand new, so I would doubt that anyone would be willing to let short term for (what I would consider) a realistic rent. They are more likely to want a 'Tourist' rate of rental.
But if you do not try you will never know..

drive around & you will see signs on the front if theyre available with a phone number. usually its the landlord but be aware of dodgy or fake landlords.

what if I am unable to lease for at least 6 months? T_T
If it is a condo with kitchen, I probably don't need to stay need UD or Central then..

Any other recommendations?

I think that you need to decide what you do need ugotguts & then maybe some one can point you in the right direction..

The sort of things you might want to consider consider are...
Monthly cost.
Need/availability of transport.
Need for Kitchen.
Area of City.

At the moment you are asking about a very specific item - a condo on a 3 month rent.
It is not an easy item to find & from some of your replies I am not even sure it is what you actually need...

what you need is a long stay furnished room, like suksan, tong yai place or ruysuk, all in that order, 6000 baht and utilities metered.
tong yai place is next to UD
forget about a looking for a 3 month condo, thats a dumb idea
forget about cooking because you can eat out for cheaper than you can cook, and its easier

Since AEK udon is in the news recently

maybe their furnished apartments for you to enquire for a 3 month agreement

@Bob .. I will be definitely in Udon for 3 months to set my business. Thereafter if everything goes well, i can stay longer.. I don't mind taking a 6 months lease if the price is unreasonable. Afterall, i travel to Udon almost every month. Cost and location will still be the most important factors. Looking at all available options

@ting-tong.. thank! i was thinking of learning cooking but i have to agree with you that it will definitely be cheaper to eat out. The other reason why I am considering the condo is because of the facilities. I will be working from home, so I don't mind paying more to get a better room.

@pomps Thanks... what happened to AEK Udon??? hmmm...
