Prawet District – Most popular location for Bangkok housing

The Prawet District received the most inquiries for housing in Bangkok between January and October 2022. In many ways, this part of Bangkok contains everything people looking to enjoy the suburban lifestyle would want. It offers easy access to Bangkok via two expressways; shopping in the form of Seacon Square and Paradise Park and large outdoor areas such as Suan Luang Rama IX Park and Nong Bon Lake Park.

Most housing developments in the Prawet District are found near the junction of Pattanakarn and On Nut with some also near Rama IX Road. These areas offer access to the expressways on the northern and eastern boundary. A significant amount of housing demand here comes on the resale market as this is an area homebuilders have targeted for some time.   

Khlong Sam Wa, Sai Mai and Min Buri – the 2nd, 3rd and 5th most popular locations for Bangkok housing

The Khlong Sam Wa (second), Sai Mai (third) and Min Buri (fifth) Districts make up three of the top five most popular locations for housing in Bangkok. Located northeast of the city center, this area has a wide range of housing developments in terms of pricing, size and style although homes on average are less expensive. For homebuyers, they must usually weigh the pros and cons of more affordable prices with the downside of being further away from the Bangkok core.

Many developers have been active launching housing project in the Khlong Sam Wa, Sai Mai and Min Buri districts with land readily available in this part of the city. Most larger firms are active here in addition to several smaller homebuilders.
