Inside the map
Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia & Cambodia — the free map covers who can own what in each, before you wire a cent. New to the whole question? Start with the framework for buying property abroad.
The one question. “Can a foreigner even own this?” has six different answers across SE Asia — and the word “freehold” on a listing hides which one applies to you.
The country-by-country map. Thailand, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Malaysia, Cambodia — what you own, the land, the term, the foreign cap, and how you register, side by side in one table.
The cost lines nobody prices. The gap between the brochure’s headline price and the all-in cost — the lines most foreign buyers never see until the notary’s desk.
The 6 universal deal-breakers. The conditions that kill a foreign property deal anywhere in the region — before you even open a spreadsheet.

If The Map Checks Out
