Abstract

The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of the pandemic on Thailand’s real estate market and to propose recommendations for investors and other market participants on how to continue operating in the market. The primary research methods employed were analysis, forecasting, and abstraction. The impact of the global pandemic on Thailand and the country’s economy, with a particular focus on the real estate sector, was evaluated. The changes observed in the real estate sector since the onset of the pandemic were presented, including a decline in activity due to travel restrictions, a correction of residential and commercial property prices, an increase in demand for suburban properties, and a shift towards online sales, among other notable developments.
