How to Negotiate Your Rent Down by 40%

Thai condo and house owners will often knock THB1,000 to THB7,000 a month off the asking rent if you deal with them directly and don’t rush. One family got a THB23,000 townhouse for THB16,000.

Negotiating can get you a discount of 8% to 40% from the quoted rental price or a free first month if you know what to do.
