Peer Johannsen is the Managing Director of Pearl Property Pattaya, an agency working in the Pattaya market since 2015. He advises in German and English, and buyers who want the legal side of a Thai purchase explained in their own language can ask him to walk through it: what foreign quota means for a condominium, where a leasehold structure is used instead of freehold, and what happens between reservation and transfer of ownership. The agency as a whole advises in English, German, Thai, French and Chinese, and covers condos, houses, villas, land and new developments across Jomtien, Pratumnak, Wongamat, Naklua, East Pattaya, Huai Yai, Na Jomtien and Bang Saray — whether you are looking at an off-plan unit in a new project or a resale condo. If you would rather have that first conversation in German, ask for Peer when you contact the office.
