01 มิ.ย. 2022 เคล็ดลับการอยู่อาศัย ข่าวสารจากพลัสฯ


Bangkok is a wonderful city to raise a family. World-class international schools, shopping and entertainment complexes, magnificent historical and heritage sites, and global pop culture events – something for everyone in the whole family. And if you are looking for a Bangkok condo for rent that is family-friendly, you will find yourself spoiled for choice.

So, how do you pick the best place to call home?

Plus Property offers some factors to consider when evaluating a condo or apartment, as well as a few suggestions to get things rolling for you.

Mini-Guide: How to choose a kid-friendly condo

When looking for Bangkok apartments for rent furnished or unfurnished, we suggest that you start with location and work your way to the unit itself. You may want to prioritize the most important factors for you and your family. Must it be close to certain schools? 

  • Do you need a BTS or MRT stop within walking distance?
  • Which facilities must the property offer? 
  • Do you need a full kitchen, including a washing machine?
  • How important is a balcony?
By determining your preference priorities before you start visiting properties, you can set your expectations as well as brief your agent so that you only see properties that suit your needs. Also, you can adjust this list as you search and determine what really is important to you.


Here, we have set four major categories to consider.

Location

Location is a fundamental factor for most people searching for a new home. Do you need to find a Bangkok condo for rent near BTS stations, or do you need to be by a specific MRT stop? You may also want to determine what you mean by “near”. 


  • For example, is that a five-minute walk, or are you okay with a motorbike taxi or a shuttle service that may take a bit longer?

With many families, there is a preference to be located conveniently near children’s schools. Is that a factor with you? With older kids who can get around the city on their own, maybe being on a school bus route or near public transport is enough. But for little ones, you may want to walk them to school. 

Also, you may want to be near a reputable hospital. Accidents do happen in families, and you may not want to worry about being stuck in traffic. Luckily, there are many internationally renowned medical facilities all over Bangkok.

Finally, you may have your eye on specific neighborhoods. Perhaps you want to be near Lumpini Park with access to the entertainment at Siam Paragon and CentralWorld. Or you prefer the trendy boutiques and eateries in the Thonglor neighborhood. Maybe the kids want to be near EmQuartier and Phrom Phong. With these location factors in mind, you can narrow down your choices.

Project Facilities & Services


The joys of living in an apartment or condo in Bangkok is having access to various facilities. But what facilities are important to you and your family?

  • Do you want a fully-equipped fitness center with a jacuzzi and saunas? 
  • Or is a children’s play area in a garden with their own kiddy pool a must-have for you and your little ones? 

Some properties have common areas such as kitchens and gardens with barbeques so you can throw parties out in the fresh air.

Beyond recreational facilities, you also want to ensure that your family is safe within the property. Is there manned 24-hour security making sure that there are no unwanted visitors around? 

Perhaps you prefer biometric or keycard access to buildings and units for that extra layer of security. 

You may also want to ask about fire alarms and safety protocols for emergencies. Knowing that your condo is in a secure location gives you and your family peace of mind.

Condo Size & Amenities

You want to also make sure that the unit you choose has the layout and amenities that you want. How many bedrooms do you need? 

  • Do you prefer a half-bath for guests so that you and your family have their own bathrooms? Do you need a bathtub? 
  • Are you a home cook so that you need a fully equipped kitchen? 
  • Will you want a balcony where the kids can play, or will it just be for drying clothes from the built-in washing machine? 

And, of course, is there enough storage space for clothing and toys and all the equipment families accrue and need over time.

Furthermore, you may want to check about furnishings. You may have your own that your children prefer, so an unfurnished or partially furnished unit may be better for you. 

Also, you may be okay with a small living area if there is easy access to a play area or garden in a common area.

Budget

Last, but surely not least, there are budget considerations. Of course, you want the best for your family, but this should not mean spending all your money on your Bangkok condo for rent. 

Working with a skilled real estate firm, such as Plus Property, you should be able to find a place that checks most, if not all, your boxes, but without breaking your budget.

There are a few things to consider. Rentals usually require a two-months’ deposit and first month rent in advance, so there is a significant initial investment. Also, you should ask about utility bills, including WiFi and cable/satellite TV. 

Finally, depending on the location and size, you may want to know about energy-saving ratings for the larger appliances, especially if you plan on using the air-conditioners for significant amounts of time.
