05Market
Phuket property:
a market with growing demand
Phuket remains one of the most sought-after resort destinations in Thailand for holidays, long stays and property purchases. Growing tourist numbers, infrastructure development and strong rental demand keep interest high in apartments and villas on the island’s west coast.

Phuket keeps developing its infrastructure
Major transport, medical and tourism projects are under way on the island and in neighbouring provinces. Infrastructure development improves comfort for permanent residents, makes Phuket more accessible to international visitors and supports long-term interest in property.
- Bumrungrad in Phuket One of Thailand’s largest hospitals is opening a branch on the island. The growth of international medicine strengthens Phuket’s position not only as a resort, but also as a place for long-term living and medical tourism.
- A new transport system A 58.5 km monorail from the airport to the Chalong circle. Connecting the airport with the island’s key districts should make getting around Phuket easier for residents and visitors.
- Airport infrastructure development Construction of Andaman airport in the neighbouring province of Phang Nga. Better transport access to the region creates potential for further growth in tourist numbers.
- Direct flights and road network New direct flights and highways are shortening the journey to the west coast — the Bang Tao and Layan areas, where all three projects are located Sun Hills.
The investment potential of Phuket property
Apartments in Phuket are considered not only for personal use, but also as investment property with the option of renting out and capital growth. Final returns depend on the project, location, view, floor, purchase price, occupancy and the terms of the management company. That is why an investment calculation makes sense for a specific unit rather than for a market average.
For a chosen Sun Hills unit we can model several scenarios: personal use, seasonal rental or an investment model with professional management. Take a look at the three projects on the west coast, apartment and villa floor plans or the buying terms offered by the developer.
06Buying
Buying Sun Hills in Phuket:
ownership and instalments
Sun Hills projects offer the two main forms of property ownership in Thailand: Freehold and Leasehold. Sun Hills Lakeside also offers interest-free instalments from the developer with no bank loan involved. Terms depend on the chosen project and the specific unit.
Forms of property ownership in Thailand
Freehold Full ownership
Title is registered to the buyer in perpetuity with the Thai Land Department.
- Perpetual ownership of the property
- Sale, rental and inheritance
- Registration with the Thai Land Department
- Availability depends on the foreign quota in the building — checked for each specific unit
Leasehold 30-year lease
A long-term 30-year lease with an option to renew. A common format on the Thai property market.
- Long-term lease agreement for 30 years
- Renewal option provided for
- Right of use for the full term of the agreement
- The renewal procedure is set out in the contract
We help choose the form of ownership that fits your goal and holding horizon, and confirm Freehold availability for a specific unit with the developer. The stages of the transaction — from enquiry to title registration — are described in the how the purchase works section.
Instalments from the developer
Sun Hills Lakeside offers two instalment schedules, both interest-free and with no bank involved. The down payment is 30%, and the final payment falls in March 2028, on handover of the keys. All amounts below are indicative; the example uses Sun Hills Lakeside. Exact terms for your unit are confirmed by the developer.
Enter the price of the unit you are interested in — the schedule will recalculate.
Down payment 30%
1 170 000 ฿
This calculation is for guidance only. Exact payment dates are fixed in the contract and depend on its signing date, so the schedule shows the structure rather than a calendar. Sun Hills Layan and Proxima Villas have separate terms — we will send them together with the price list.
Additional costs when buying
In addition to the unit price, four categories of costs arise when registering and maintaining the property. The rates below are examples from the Sun Hills Lakeside price list; final amounts depend on the floor area and the chosen form of ownership.
Capital construction fund
700 ฿ / m²
A one-off payment on registration of ownership.
Common area maintenance
75 ฿ / m² per month
Paid once a year for the upkeep of shared facilities.
Water and electricity meters
15 000 ฿
A one-off fixed amount on connection.
Title registration
1.1% or 6.3%
Government fee: 1.1% for Leasehold, 6.3% for Freehold, split equally with the seller. For Freehold a quota of 10,000 ฿ / m² also applies.
We will prepare a full purchase calculation for your chosen unit: price, instalment schedule, registration and maintenance costs — in a single table with the final amount.
07Location
Layan and Bang Tao:
the west coast of Phuket
Sun Hills projects are located on the west coast of Phuket, in the Layan and Bang Tao areas. This is one of the most sought-after parts of the island for living, holidays and buying property: beaches, Laguna Phuket, restaurants, international schools, medical centres and everyday amenities are all close by.
Layan has a quieter atmosphere and is closer to nature, while Bang Tao offers well-developed resort infrastructure. This location combines privacy with easy access to everything you need for life in Phuket. Take a look at the three projects in Layan and Bang Tao or the apartment and villa floor plans.
7km Layan Beach — one of the quietest on the west coast
~5min Access to the island’s main highway
~10min Boat Avenue and Porto de Phuket: shops, market, restaurants
