1. Parties and acceptance
These Terms of Use govern the use of all services provided through worldofcondos.com, our mobile app and our other digital channels (together, the "Services") between you (the "user") and World of Condos Co., Ltd., incorporated in Thailand ("World of Condos", "we", "us").
By using the Services, you accept these terms and the Privacy Policy, which forms part of them. If you do not accept them, please do not use the Services. Specific services such as buying, renting or managing a property are subject to separate written agreements; in case of conflict, those agreements prevail.
2. Nature of our services
World of Condos provides a listing platform presenting homes, villas and projects for sale and rent in Thailand, as well as real estate consultancy, interior design and property management services.
- The initial consultation is free of charge. Where a paid service is involved, the scope, fee and payment terms are communicated in writing before the service begins.
- We are not the seller or developer; unless stated otherwise in writing, we do not own the properties in the listings. Sale and lease agreements are concluded between you and the property owner or developer.
- For some of the Services we use third-party services such as Google, Apple, WhatsApp and YouTube; these services are subject to their own terms.
3. Eligibility and account security
- You must be at least 18 years old to use the Services. To acquire property and sign contracts in Thailand, you must be of legal age (20) or have the consent of your legal representative.
- You must provide accurate and up-to-date information in your account, keep your password confidential and not share your account with others.
- If you notice that your account has been used without authorisation, you must notify us immediately.
- You can delete your account at any time under My Account › Profile and Security.
4. Listing information and prices
- Listing information is compiled from property owners, developers and publicly available sources. We take care to ensure its accuracy, but prices, availability, measurements and features may change without notice.
- Unless stated otherwise, prices are in Thai Baht (฿). Amounts in other currencies are approximate and for information only.
- Listings marked "Sold" or "Rented" may remain online for reference.
- Images may be illustrative; unless stated otherwise, interior designs are sample applications.
- Final terms are set only by a written offer, reservation form or contract.
5. Important information on foreign property ownership in Thailand
- Land: Under the Thai Land Code, foreigners generally cannot own land.
- Condominium ownership: Under the Condominium Act B.E. 2522, foreigners may own up to 49% of the total saleable area in a project. Availability of the foreign quota should be confirmed in writing before purchase.
- Fund transfer: To register a title under the foreign quota, the purchase price must be transferred from outside Thailand in a foreign currency and documented with a foreign exchange transaction form (FET form) issued by the bank.
- Leasehold: Long-term leases for land and villas are registered at the Land Office; a single term may not exceed 30 years. Renewal promises are contractual terms and are not always guaranteed by law.
- Fees and taxes: Items such as the transfer fee, stamp duty, specific business tax, withholding tax and annual property tax vary depending on the nature of the transaction. The amounts are determined by the Land Office and communicated to you in writing before the transaction.
- Due diligence: We recommend checking the title deed type (e.g. Chanote) and land records, zoning and building permits, and the status of common fees and debts.
6. Regulated activities in Thailand and our team
We conduct our activities in line with Thailand's foreign investment and employment legislation:
- Foreign Business Act B.E. 2542: Our company's activities in Thailand are carried out within the limits of this Act, with the necessary permits and structure.
- Royal Decree on the Work of Foreigners B.E. 2560 and the 2020 list of prohibited occupations: Real estate brokerage and agency work within Thailand is reserved for Thai nationals. These tasks are carried out by our Thai team members.
- Foreign team members: Our team members of foreign nationality work with valid work permits and in the areas permitted by law: international investment consultancy, marketing, interior design and client communication.
- Anti-money laundering: Under the Anti-Money Laundering Act B.E. 2542 and related regulations, we carry out identity verification where necessary and request documents on the source of funds. We respond to requests from competent authorities within the legal framework.
7. Calculators and content are not advice
ROI, rental yield and payment plan calculators, market analyses, blog posts and videos are for general information only. They are not investment, tax, financial or legal advice. Results are based on the assumptions you enter; past returns are not an indication of future results. You should make your own investment decisions after obtaining independent professional advice.
8. Rules of use
When using the Services, you agree not to:
- Share false, misleading or third-party information or listings.
- Collect content and listings or send bulk messages using bots, scrapers or automated tools.
- Attempt to bypass security measures or upload code that could harm the system.
- Harass other users or collect their personal data without permission.
- Use the Services for money laundering, fraud or any other unlawful purpose.
If these rules are breached, we may suspend or close your account and remove the relevant content.
9. User content and feedback
You represent that you hold the necessary rights to the property information, photos, comments and messages you send us ("User Content") and that they are accurate. You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to host, display and edit User Content for the purpose of providing the service. We may use your suggestions and feedback to improve our services without incurring any obligation to you.
10. Intellectual property
The text, photos, videos, interior designs, logos, trademarks and software on the site belong to World of Condos or its licensors. They may not be copied, reproduced or used for commercial purposes without our written permission. For notices of infringement, see the Copyright Policy.
11. Limitation of liability
We provide the Services with care and in compliance with the law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we cannot be held liable for the actions of third parties (owners, developers, banks, public authorities), changes in market conditions or indirect damages.
This limitation does not apply to damages arising from intent or gross negligence, damages relating to life and health, or rights you have as a consumer that cannot be waived by contract.
12. Suspension and termination
You can delete your account at any time. In the event of a serious or repeated breach of these terms, unlawful use or a security risk, we may suspend or close your account with notice. Records we are legally required to keep are retained for the statutory period even after termination.
13. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Thailand. We first try to resolve disputes in good faith through direct communication. The Thai courts have jurisdiction over disputes that cannot be resolved.
As a consumer, the mandatory consumer protection provisions of your country of residence (e.g. EU member states or Türkiye) that cannot be waived by contract, and the remedies they provide, are reserved. The mandatory individual arbitration and class action waiver provisions of the previous version have been removed.
14. Changes
We may update these terms. We will announce material changes on the site or by email at least 15 days before they take effect. Continuing to use the Services after the changes means you accept the updated terms.
