Krunja\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>If last year had started to unpick the threads of Thailand\u2019s property market, the novel coronavirus has blown a hole right through its fabric.<\/p>\n<p>The country was already reeling from oversupply, flagging sales, and dwindling Chinese demand when the pandemic hit\u2014and things have taken a turn for the worse.<\/p>\n<p>From mid-March to April, there have been no new condominium launches in Bangkok. Projects due to be launched are postponed to the last quarter of the year, while many sales offices have closed as staff work from home.<\/p>\n<p>As Suphin Mechuchep, managing director of JLL Thailand, puts it: \u201cAll of the core property sectors have been affected by the outbreak in one way or another.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn March, the outbreak of Covid-19 was especially severe, resulting in a decrease in the number of people visiting projects,\u201d reports Risinee Sarikaputra, director of research at Knight Frank Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>From its initial forecast of 20,000 units, Knight Frank Thailand expects around 11,000 to 12,000 units to come on the market by the end of the year.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the decrease in new condominium sales, Risinee says \u201cconcerns remain about the number of condominium transfers for completed projects that are ready to be turned over this year amid the nationwide lockdown.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A similar trend is playing out in secondary markets. The pandemic\u2019s impact on travel and tourism has slashed both domestic and foreign demand for holiday homes\u2014a key segment in coastal hotspots like Phuket and Hua Hin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlong with most expat agents here, I deal with foreign buyers. With no international flights coming in, there haven\u2019t been any sales happening,\u201d says Russ Downing, managing director of Hot Hua Hin, which does business in real estate and publishing.<\/p>\n<p>The pandemic is accelerating a trend that already started last year, effectively putting an end to Thailand\u2019s years of strong growth and brisk sales.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9494\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9494\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9494\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_417410050.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_417410050.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_417410050.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_417410050.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_417410050.jpg 190w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_417410050.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9494\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Modern building in business district at Bangkok city with skyline at twilight. K.Chuansakul\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In 2019, Bangkok\u2019s condominium sector saw sales of just under 40,000 new units\u2014a massive cut from its five-year-average of 58,000, according to data from Knight Frank Thailand.<\/p>\n<p>The condo price index for Greater Bangkok slowed for a third straight period in the fourth quarter of 2019 as developers capped prices, according to the Real Estate Information Centre. Last year marked a sluggish year for the Bangkok condominium market, affirms Risinee, \u201creflecting low confidence among both developers and buyers in the Thai market.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In Phuket, which performed better than Bangkok, sales last year were relatively flat at 4,177\u2014compared with 4,022 in 2018\u2014while Pattaya saw a drop in the average sales rate from 35% in 2018 to 25%.<\/p>\n<p>A major reason for the lacklustre performance nationwide has been the tightening of mortgage regulations to curb speculation and risk taking, along with higher interest rates set by the Bank of Thailand at 1.75%.<\/p>\n<p>As of April, homebuyers looking to take out multiple mortgages were required to make a minimum downpayment of 10%. Developers are objecting to such heavy-handed measures after the rejection rate for bank loans doubled and pre-sales of high-rise projects fell by 30% and low-rise projects by 17% by August.<\/p>\n<p>The downturn in demand from Chinese buyers, which has fuelled Thailand\u2019s real estate boom in recent years, spells trouble for the Kingdom. While 2019 saw encouraging numbers of Chinese tourists\u201410.99 million, up 4.4% on the year before\u2014fewer scouted for investment opportunities as they have done in the past, says property watchers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_9496\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9496\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-9496\" src=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_98103257.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"665\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_98103257.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_98103257.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_98103257.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_98103257.jpg 190w, https:\/\/www.asiapropertyawards.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/shutterstock_98103257.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-9496\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">With international flights suspended during the 2020 global pandemic, takers for property in Thailand&#8217;s prime second-home market have been in short supply. NitiChuysakul\/Shutterstock<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>A weakening yuan caused by China\u2019s economic slowdown and its trade war with the US, along with stricter measures to curb currency outflows from China and a strong baht, have led Chinese buyers to shy away from Thailand. \u201cThese factors have resulted in decreased liquidity to buy condominiums launched in the past year, and the market has slowed down considerably,\u201d says Risinee.<\/p>\n<p>Vichai Viratkapan, acting director-general of the Real Estate Information Centre, says that around half of Chinese condo transfers are expected to disappear in the first two quarters of this year. The shrinking Chinese market, along with travel restrictions due to the pandemic, present a challenge to reducing the country\u2019s vast oversupply over the next few years. The number of remaining condominium units for sale nationwide at the end of 2019 was approximately 98,158.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In Bangkok&#8217;s luxury residential condominium segment, the pandemic has not affected prospective buyers\u2019 spending power. But it has dampened sentiment in the market<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The situation has forced many developers to keep from launching new projects while shifting their focus to units priced below THB100,000 (USD3,200) per sqm, to appeal to first-time buyers and those with smaller budgets. This year, developers like Land and House, Golden Land, and Property Perfect have refrained from launching projects at all. The few firms still planning to launch\u2014at only one project each\u2014include Ananda Development with Ideo Pahol Saphan Kwai, and SC Asset with the 429-room Crest Park Residences.<\/p>\n<p>AP Thailand announced it would be targeting more provincial markets with projects in the THB1m to THB2m price segment, while the luxury segment has resorted to heavy discounts to get them through the hard times, says JLL\u2019s Suphin. \u201cIn Bangkok\u2019s luxury residential condominium segment, the outbreak has not affected prospective buyers\u2019 spending power.

before Thailand\u2019s property markets rebound.<\/p>\n<p>Juwai IQI\u2014a real estate portal for Chinese buyers\u2014forecasts that after a generally negative outlook for residential prices over the coming year, which are expected to drop by 2.4% by the end of 2020, \u201ca strong recovery\u201d should follow with prices climbing to 5.6% by the end of 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Yet any such recovery is largely dependent on many factors: Thailand\u2019s ability to contain the coronavirus, to safely welcome back tourists, and for local and foreign buyers to be ready and willing to spend on real estate again.<\/p>\n<p>Any recovery will also require China to contain its domestic problems while repairing relations with the US, which looks unlikely to happen anytime soon as tensions intensify over the
