PaTTaYa conDoMiniUM MaRKeT oVeRVieWPattaya is a city located on the east coast of the Gulf of Thailand about 165 km southeast of Bangkok. It is within, but not under the jurisdiction of Amphoe Bang Lamung in the province of Chonburi. The city of Pattaya is a self-governing municipality that covers the whole Tambon of Nong Prue, Na Klua, parts of Huai Yai and Nong Pla Lai. It is located within the heavily industrialized Eastern Seaboard zone, along with Sri Racha, Laem Chabang and Chon Buri. Pattaya is also the centre of the Pattaya-Chonburi Metropolitan Area, the conurbation in Chonburi Province.
The real estate market is big business in Pattaya, especially property development. Many new buildings have gone up in recent years and some people think the market might be oversupplied. Some buildings are put up. There is also a market for villas, but its growth is limited.
“Greater Pattaya” occupies most of the coastline of Banglamung (one of the 11 districts that comprise Chonburi Province). It is divided into a larger northern section that spans the areas to the east of Naklua Beach (the most northern beach) and Pattaya Beach (the main beach), plus the Buddha Hill headland (immediately south of Pattaya Beach), and a smaller southern section covering the area to the east of Jomtien Beach (which lies directly south of Buddha Hill), including Dongtan Beach. Jomtien’s beaches are much broader and generally in better shape, and the atmosphere locally is more sedate and family-oriented than at Pattaya Beach.

The real estate market is big business in Pattaya, especially property development. The key factor of success in developing a condominium in Pattaya is the developers. larger developers can raise confidence among buyers thanks to their reputation and/or consutrction track record. Based on our experience, unsuccessful condominium projects are not developed professionally and we believe that there is an opportunity for strong new players to start developing true five-star residential projects in Pattaya.

Condominium Locations
Our study is focused on the major areas of condominium accommodation in Pattaya, which can be subdivided into four main areas:
1. Wongamat: This is the area to the north of Pattaya Nua. It is considered a peaceful, more up-market location and is a relatively new area for condominium development. The current developments under construction in this area are Northpoint, The Cove, Ocean’s Edge and many more. The condominium
units in this precinct offer a total supply of 3,434 units. During the first half of 2009, there were four condominium project was added to the supply in the area.
2. Pattaya: This area is situated alongside the city centre. The section of beach from Central Road (Pattaya Klang) south to the harbour is adjacent to the core of Pattaya’s abundant nightlife area. Many sections of the beach are covered by rented deckchairs run by local beverage vendors during daylight hours. Pattaya Nua and Klang are the areas favoured by Asian visitors, especially Chinese and Korean, while the area of South Pattaya is
popular among Middle Eastern, South Asian and Russian visitors. Condominium projects in the vicinity include Northshore, Saratta and Nova Atrium to name just a few. The condominium units in this vicinity total 6,021 units. Three condominium projects were added to the supply in this area in 1H2009.

3. Pratumnak: This area covers the main thoroughfare connecting Pattaya and Jomtien Beach. The recent trend in the area is the opening of many upscale restaurants along Thappraya Road. Despite this, there are many condominium
units nearby; among them Royal Cliff Garden and Royal Beach Condotel have excellent reputations. This area is also very popular with Scandinavian and Russian visitors.

4. Jomtien: Jomtien beach is about 1 km south of Pratumnak Hill. The locale is home to many high-rise condominiums, beach front hotels, beaches, shops and restaurants. The area at the beginning of Jomtien is considered busy, while the
area located at the end of this beach, called “Na Jomtien”, is considered peaceful and tranquil. There are many plots of vacant land available at Na Jomtien for future development.

The sharp increase in condominiums in
Pattaya was found in 2006, up 18.06% over 2005. The growth rate of new supply is projected to average 9.96% per year from 2003 to 1H 2009.
The majority of condominium supply is in the Jomtien area, representing about 65% of the total, followed by the Pattaya
and the Pratumnak areas, representing about 15% and 11%, respectively.

FUTURe sUPPlY
Approximately 75 condominium projects with over 15,288 units will be launched in 2H2009 and beyond, with the majority in the Jomtien Beach area due to the availability of land and the
favourable location close to the beach, as well as the high density in Pattaya. Future developments will shift to the Baan Amphoe and Bang Saray areas.

International buyers are mostly tourists who visit Pattaya regularly, with most of them looking for a good return on their investment
in these projects. The following are the target tourists interested in buying Pattaya condominium units.
The Knowledge Report | 1st Half | 2009 | Pattaya Condominium Market
collieRs inTeRnaTional 9
1. Russians: Marketing agents and developers identify the main buyers as visitors from Russia. In 2007, 889,656 Russians visited Pattaya, up 84% over 2006, making them the leading market for the resort after only Thais, 1.51 million of whom checked into Pattaya hotels in 2008. However, the number of Russians visited Pattaya has declined in 2008 to 564,483 persons. Although Russians have been visiting Pattaya for more than a decade, only in the past two years have they started to buy up property in Pattaya and the trend is catching on.
2. Expat Market: Located in such centres as Hong Kong, Singapore, Tokyo, Bangkok, Phuket and Chiang Mai, the expat market is attracted by Pattaya’s comparatively low land prices and cost of living. Knowing Asian markets well, they are particularly attracted by a potential yield of circa 9-11% on prime developments and spectacular rates of capital growth, which can be as high as 50%.
3. British: Before the Russians rushed into Pattaya’s property picture, the main buyers were British visitors, many of them looking for a second home aboard and a retirement spot.
4. Scandinavians: Like the Russians, this group has proved a large and growing market for properties in Pattaya and the surrounding areas over the past two years. Another similarity is that sales to both Russian and Scandinavian buyers tend to be handled through their own national networks. 5. Korean: Korean visitors tend to be interested in buying property in Pattaya due to the increasing number of tourists
travelling to the area, up 32% over 2002. The important factor behind Korean’s love of Pattaya and as property buyers is their love of golf, as Pattaya has many golf courses in the surrounding area.
6. Middle East: The Middle East has potential in terms of property purchases in Pattaya, with visitors from the region up 25.08% over 2002.
7. India: The number of Indian tourists visiting Pattaya is up 42% since 2002.
8. Thailand: The attitude of Thais towards the resort is as a residential area and they take the following issues into consideration: - Location: A short distance from Bangkok, with a driving time of approximately one and a half. - Geographic area: They prefer to buy a resort property in a beach rather than a mountain area since the beach offers many sporting activities for the whole family. - Completed facilities: These should have restaurants, entertainment and shopping options.
From 1-15 June 2009 the Land Department in Pattaya shows that the majority of condominium buyers are foreigners, representing 82% of the total, while just 18% of buyers are Thais.

Condominium units in highest demand are those measuring less than 50 sq m, representing about 83% of the total, followed by
those between 50 sq m and 99 sq m, representing 14%. Demand for units bigger than 100 sq m represents just 3% of the total.
The Knowledge Report | 1st Half | 2009 | Pattaya Condominium Market
Approximately 319 second-hand condominium units were sold in the first half of June 2009, while 73 of the total 392 units sold
were newly completed.
collieRs inTeRnaTional 11
We have measured the absorption of units in projects that were marketed during 2008 and applied this as a proxy for demand during the year.
A total of 12,479 condominium units in Pattaya were marketed in 2008, with the cumulative number of units sold 6,778 at
the end of 1Q2009. Thus, there were approximately 5,701 units available for sale, making the cumulative selling rate of condominium units up until 1Q2009 54.32%.
Demand by Unit Type
The most popular type of condominium unit in Pattaya is studio and 1-bedroom types, while the least favourite type is the bigger unit with three bedrooms. However, many units are still
remaining due to the global recession, which slowed down the sales rate in the first half of 2009.

Demand by Location
We have measured the absorption of units by location in newly launched projects during the year and applied this as a proxy for demand by location. In 2008, the Wongamat area showed the highest absorption rate, with the percentage sold at 59.96%. This area was followed by the Pratumnak and Pattaya areas, with 42.88% and 30.29%, respectively. The percentage sold in the Jomtien area was the lowest, at only 13.98% of the total number of units launched
in 2008. Demand for condominium units in the Jomtien area showed to be the worst performance due to the high number of units currently available and over supply in the area. In an economic downturn, all consumers, except those in the live-for-today segment, typically re-evaluate their consumption priorities.

PRice
The sales price on all projects varies considerably, depending on the launch time, the project/unit design, level of interior finish, facilities, location and quality of the product.
The condominium market in Pattaya is attractive to both Thais and foreigners, due to its proximity to Bangkok and the number of completed facilities in the area. The key factor when purchasing property is location. It is significant to consider the property’s surroundings, access and convenience of infrastructure. Pricing
alone is not the top priority. Another critical element is timing and identifying the right property.
The average sales price will vary according to location, building specifications and decoration. In order to clarify the price, we will focus on the following locations since condominium prices are a function of land prices, which depend on location.
During the global recession, there has been some demand for Pattaya condominiums, although the majority of this demand is for self-use, rather than as an investment. From the data of the Department of Land, Pattaya, from Jun 1-15, 2009, it can be seen that the highest number of condominium units sold in Pattaya were those units with prices below THB 1 million, while the lowest numbers sold were those in the price range of above THB10 million. High-end properties, not only in Pattaya
but in all areas, are seeing some of the largest declines. This is not surprising since the buyers in this sector of the market are typically cash rich, astute business people who know that they have a good chance of securing a better deal by holding off. In the low end of the market, mortgages can be harder to secure and, with this sector poised to become more crowded as prices decline, some time will likely need to pass before demand starts to pick up.

Outlook:
Facilities, activities and infrastructure in Pattaya has been developed continually, with many new developments to serve the residents. The retail market is complete as Avenue Pattaya and the Central Festival Pattaya Beach. Shopping centres make it convenient for the residents in terms of offering daily products and services. In addition, premium or luxurious products and services can be found in Pattaya, including international medical centres and schools.
The key factor of success in developing a condominium in Pattaya is the developer, who should have proper funding and strong experience in condominium, residential or hotel developments. Larger developers can raise confidence among buyers thanks to their reputation and/or construction track record. A prime condominium site should be on the beachfront or a hillside site that offers sea views and beach access, also providing buyers with a level of privacy. The right products also need to be provided to meet the current trends in demand. Based on our experience, unsuccessful condominium projects are not developed professionally and we believe that there is an opportunity for strong new players to start developing true five-star residential projects in Pattaya.
