Secure Property Transfers and Escrow Management in Krabi

Navigating the Closing Process

Once a property is vetted, the transition from “Agreement” to “Ownership” requires precision.
Thai property law is unique, and the documentation at the Land Office must be handled with meticulous attention to detail.
KC provides professional legal support to ensure that contracts are fair, payments are secure, and the transfer of ownership is ironclad.

Leasehold vs. Freehold Strategy

For international investors, choosing between a 30-year registered lease (with renewal options) or a Thai Limited Company structure is a pivotal decision.
We advise on the most secure legal framework for your specific situation, ensuring that your rights as a villa owner or commercial developer are protected for the long term under the Civil and Commercial Code of Thailand.

Our Transaction Services Include:

• Contract Drafting & Review

We move beyond standard templates to create bespoke Sale and Purchase Agreements (SPA) that protect the buyer’s interests, focusing on payment milestones and penalty clauses for non-delivery.

• Escrow & Fund Management

We provide guidance on the secure transfer of funds, ensuring that international transfers are correctly coded (FET form) to allow for the future repatriation of capital if the property is sold.

• Land Office Representation

Our legal team handles the physical transfer at the Land Office, managing the calculations for transfer fees, withholding tax, and stamp duty so there are no surprises on the Closing Day.
