He’s a good bloke, never met anybody who talks so much in my life though 😂 best of luck James.

Great interview Jonny , Best wishes on your move James and new venture.

Great vlog. What a pad! Absolute bargain. James seems a really decent guy. Wishing him all the best on his new venture.

that is a stunning house. He's made a great job of it. So cheap in comparison to the 🇬🇧 but so many hurdles for a foreigner!

"Moving for the fishing." I like James way of thinking.

Thank you so much for promoting our country

Hey Johnny keep away from the doughnuts! James is in better condition and twice your age! 😂🍩😂

Lovely place. Seems like a nice genuine bloke. Wish him all the best in Phuket.

I’m impressed with your honesty, Jonny. I’ve watched bloggers in Chiangmai recently that spent the entirety of two travel vlogs going condo hunting with a property agent. Not for themselves but just to show what the market is like and how this property agent will make the search painless. Being the cynic that I am, I wasn’t sure if I was watching a commercial paid for by the property agent or not. The way that you handled this left no doubt that you were doing this as a favor to a friend. Having a house in Chiangmai that was rented twice by the above property agent, with bad results, I can only offer 2 pieces of advice. Limit the number of dogs allowed to 2 in writing, and make sure that the dogs aren’t on the vicious side. Both of my renters left after 7 and 11 months. The first was fired from their teaching job at an international school. It turned out that they had lied and had 5 dogs, not 2 that they were allowed. The second wanted out of the lease and the return of their two month deposit. This was after their dogs tore up my sliding front gate and I had to have it rebuilt. They also let several trees die during the hot season when they wouldn’t let my caretaker in to fix the sprinkler control system. Luckily, your friend lives in Thailand. I live in the U.S. but will finally retire in 4 years when the last of my 4 children graduates from High school. I hope that your friend understands that at least a 2 month deposit is necessary because of the possible/probable damage caused by the tenant.

When I get to retire in Thailand, I will value experiences over owning things!

I'm in Thailand now since March 2nd and Hua Hin is absolutely DEAD. There and Chiang Mai suffering bad from Covid restrictions.

Wishing James all the best with his move, I sense he has gone through some upheaval. He seems to be a gent and hopefully it all works out for him.

It was good to catch up with all your videos from over the last 6 weeks. We had major floods here in Lismore Far North NSW so I have been a bit displaced over that time. I'm finally back in Lismore with some decent Internet and able to catch up with all that I watch. Cheers.

Thank You Jonny For the Quick Response. That is Very Classy Of You To Take The Time Out To Respond To a Random Question. My Thai Wife and Myself Enjoy Your Videos. Please Keep Up the Good Work!!. I Wish You and Your Family All the Best!!

Another extreme traveller I can relate to. Stumbled on the channel and subbed! Peace and love

Welcome to Phuket for Expats probably the best place to live in Thailand.Its a shame that most people that visit they only see Patong, The Island is the same size as Singapore and is the second wealthiest province in Thailand and you can always find somewhere quiet here,I GB Broadband upwards, great roads all around the Island,an International airport and full access by road to the stunning Beauty that represents the south of Thailand.

Down to earth, friendly convo, awesome Jonny! 🇵🇭 When you coming to the Philippines?

Enjoyed this one boys! Wish james the best in phuket. That home won’t last long! Beautiful job

Nice one Jonny, James is a top bloke, wish him well, tell him to start vloging!

Thanks for the video. Beautiful Villa. Gonna be contacting James to have a look.

So sweet of you to think of your dog bro. Keep it up man. He loves you alot. Show him lots of love till he leaves you one day.

Wow James great pad.Same rent as a single room in shared house in London....hi from another aviator/sailor in KL.

I would love to learn more about how expats can buy a boat in Thailand. In the US, you buy it and you are on the water the next day. I'm sure the Thais have made this a paperwork nightmare so I think it might make a good video walking us through it. 🍺🍺

Great house. Good Luck James..Thanks for the video Jonny.. Have a fun..👍👍

James is marking the right choice for marinas fantastic faculties where he will keep his boat and living where he has chosen he will be very happy……I’m often at that marina so I’ll look out for him

Thanks Jonny,James your home is gorgeous hope you get an interested party soon, great info particularly about ownership, Thai authorities reluctant to farangs buying freeholds, rightly so look at the mess we are in here in UK, take care gents REALLY enjoyed this vid✌🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🍻🍕

thanks mate for providing us those info / and James best of luck

Noticed wedding ring missing from James finger. Lovely bloke. Hope he finds love in Phuket.

Dang it, I wish I had friends as cool as these blokes are.

17:00 So why you leaving? 17:24 So why you leaving? Get on with it, man! Kidding. Loved the dialog. Very cool episode.

All the best James

You can tell a diffirence between an English gentleman and a typical Aussie!

That kitchen looks top notch 👌

Nice man James, a very genuine person. My Thai wife and I plan to relocate back to TL later this year, I assume this property has been rented since uploading but if still available for sale I would be prepared to pay James's asking price, no quibbles.

5 million Baht that's incredible. That's why I love coming to Thailand so many times. The only annoying thing is the split of owner ships. I hope this law changes soon one day. But for now rent is the safest bet!

Hey! Hey! Good to see you rock'n the Electrolux brand washer. That's the company I work for.

Good video lads 👍

Good luck James. Wonderful that you are going to live your dream

Good luck James. Happy fishing

Love this kitchen.. good luck on your journey bro.

Really nice house, and seems to be a good deal to rent it or buy it. Thanks for the tour of the house, Jonny.

Right on James. I emailed you. Good looking out Jonny. John

This was a good video Jonny and James has a lovely house in Hua Hin. Unfortunately the audio or James's microphone wasn't working properly... maybe that was a blessing in disguise are you suggesting? ;-)

😄Very nice of James to pose for your thumbnail 😁! Lovely house and so nice compared to what you get in Malaysia 😊

Nice house u have there James, the rental price was affordable too.

Don't make sense why you live there .it must get mind numbingly boring after a while

He did a beautiful remodel kitchen job

It’s worth every penny est of luck to u I live fes Loughview ern a lot of English fishing men come over here for a big fishing competition it’s only fresh water fishing 🎣 but there’s a pick competition every year there’s a lot of big picke it’s a great sport sea fish give u more of a fight enjoy ur fishing 🎣 😊

All the best James 🙏

Best response to your questions "John do i " absolutely fantastic

What a deal guys ! Thank you for sharing .... Enjoy .

I love when he said, "his wife was brilliant" XD I want that kinda wife, for real XD

Good luck in Phuket James😀 and a Nice house you have in Hua Hin! ❤️Great video Johnny! 👍 😀

Awesome house, and a nice bloke, cheers Jonny;-)

What an amazing place - best of luck in the new gaff

I cant remember the last time your videos showed up in my feed but all the Thailand ones I followed vanished and you have 20k more followers so been a while and you had more hair

You wouldn't want to be pissed coming down the stairs and fall into the glass

I am surprised there's no one in yet,its a lovely place.

Jonny, the dog wags to tail....incredible

Nice house but it's too complicated to buy a property in Thailand and not actually own it as a farang. You really have to trust your thai girl and hope she isn't a gold digger.

Fantastic another Jonny video

A great house and more than fair with the rent good luck with your new adventures in Phuket

The house is a great value if you are moving to Hua Hin. Unfortunately, I won' be moving to Thailand until the end of the year. Very informative video Johnny.

Great price - well maintained

LMAO Jonny!! Nam probably watched this video. She's going to send you a message saying : SEE, Jonny, you have dirty brain! Oh my goodness Johnny!!" 🤣. All the best to James in his newest endeavors! Nice place he's put up on the market there in Hua Hin! 👍

Sounds like your not missing BA for a nano second James.....me either🥳 6 years gone in September.....Been seriously thinking abut HH , just have some doubts about medical , and insurance at 69. Good Luck with the new venture mate Cheers Kev

Patong ahh the memories , I survived 12 months living there,

His home is gorgeous

Thats a beautiful car on driveway.....bit more info on that please Jonny

Let me assure you, anyone who buys property in Thailand will live to regret it, as nice a guy as James is, he knows the rules are all for Thais and not for the Farang, which BTW is how we should be, at least the Thais look after their own citizens. But, but, if you ever think it would be a good idea to buy in Thailand, only do it if you can afford to lose 100% of your investment, believe me I know. I was lucky I got out without a loss, most don’t.

He put a lot into that house, looks great. I'd have a hard time moving out of it....

Really good video, this guy has some nice stories and explains everything well. Perfect house for starter family or couple with all the mod cons/gadgets and perfect location. We're moving from Pattaya after 4 years to hua hin, just got ourselves a place at Mali Prestige thanks to Foreigner Joes video. I'd of really considered this if we didnt have 2 small dogs that need a bit more garden space.

Fair price. If he can possibly sell it he should, because tenants will wreck it.

Is it possible to get the contact details of the guys that renovated the kitchen please? they did an awesome job at a great price. Would love to know if they need another kitchen do up project!

This screams party house. Could be a headache for the owner renting it out. The price is quite amazing. Too bad it gets so darn hot in Hua Hin.

If this was six months on I'd rent this in a heartbeat. What a beautiful place!

I'm paying more for a night or two at most places down the shore in New Jersey in America, than this costs for a month. And the places I'm staying at are not 10% as nice as this. Jeez get me there now.

Looks a great villa and great price to rent , I will give you an example here where I live in West wales UK a 3 bedroom terraced house is £750 per month . As always an interesting video and informative great job jonny.

Great vlog Jonny, one thing you didn’t mention was transport, can you get around from James house or do you need a motorcycle? Thanks 🙏

you due have the gift of gab but i like your videos great content wish you all the best see you on the next one.

HI Johnny and Som, I am an Aussie Army Veteran in QLD, I've been watching you since 2017, my 1st comment , respect, your channel is awesome, hope to meet one day this year, cheers CJ

Curious why 90% or so of the villas have walled gardens and gates. Is crime a big factor?

Bro James is cool..he will sort his property no problem.. Nice guy..💯 oh Pete is calling you out..be great for him to interview you..your whole story..I know a fair bit I would like to know more lol..Pete Thairish times.i actually.would love to meet up with you also sometime..Good guy..alot of respect, 🇹🇭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Square footage??

greetigs.omg, super content. Jonny- :)

$800 FOR ALL THAT???? Damn I feel like America is ripping me the fk off LOL

Hello, we will be looking for something in Hua Hin around June 1st. We are a family of 4 coming from Dallas TX. If its still available we would be interested in looking at the property towards the end of May when we arrive. Thanks!

Jonny you make me laugh 😂 you were really trying to get him to hurry up with his answers the entire video you was in a rush to get drinking

I'd buy it... buy for 50% off. No one buys in Thailand anymore.

I've seen some stupid videos before in my time but vlogging and advertising the fact that you are involved in illegal land/house ownership is right up there in the top 5. Using a false company illegally to obtain land and build a house on it is what i am talking about. If you think the thai authorities don't monitor social media, think again. It is a great house, well worth the rent and sale price as I've stayed in it. But wise up guys on what information you are putting out there for all to see and hear.

JONNY!!! I'm really sorry about my comments the other day about your good lady Som!!! I didnt know that's your girl!!! Your mate has a seriously impressive gaff there, very nice!!! The pool 😜🙏... cheers Jonny for the wicked content!!! FYI your Escort mate WOW 👌 👏 😍

5m THB, well priced.

how can that guy wear jeans in that heat?

Hi Johnny if your now using go pro what mic set up are you using? Thanks

Missing the land of smiles 🥺

Boy that homeowner really knows how to live large. Hi-5 to him. Me next.

James is a nice bloke love the house. I have a empty granny flat here in Redcliffe Qld. I should get it rented out that money would be more than enough to rent that lovely holiday home. It will be gone by then but it's got me thinking.

WOW that house is very cheap, that house in the north of the UK would cost around 500/600k pound sterling and in the south of the country you wouldn't get much change from 1million to 1.5 million pound sterling depending which part of the South

Hey Jonny I'm moving to Thailand in one month would love to talk more if you know any similar properties near Phuket which is where I also want to go at first!

to hazardous (!) renting out ... the house more a Villa is Tip Top with everything ... I wouldn't take one change to rent it out to !?!
