Koh Samui Real Estate 
Koh Samui Real Estate
The combination of the easy access to the
outside world - including direct flights around the world, and an ever
expanding route list - and the amazing aesthetics that strike people
when they visit, has obviously created a huge desire to own property in
Koh Samui. This in turn has created a real estate industry that is
constantly maturing
Thirty years ago very few non-Thais had ever
visited Koh Samui or the surrounding Islands. The vast majority of the
island was dedicated to farming coconuts. Over the years as
international travel in the jet-age has allowed more and more access to
different parts of the world to many more people the island has
developed in popularity. First the more adventurous back-packers and
then more and more, until the place became on the beaten-track for many
people taking a year-out of university etc. These people are still
attracted to Koh Samui, but the people who originally discovered the
islands in their youth, are now professionals who still visit Koh Samui
and have disposable incomes and a desire to own a small piece of the
paradise they so admire.
As a developing nation, with a high
dependency on tourism, Thailand has a taken advantage of their position
and has developed markets such as Phuket to high level. Koh Samui is not
at that stage, but it is being developed, and has the advantage of all
the lessons learnt in Phuket and Pattaya, and can avoid the over
development that doesn’t really fit the fundamental nature of Thailand,
which is the essential attraction.
