Amazing Thailand. I’m sure you’ve heard that expression before.
To operate a real estate agency in Thailand you do not need a license. That’s right — no license required.
But… as a foreigner, you do need a valid visa and a work permit. Thai nationals can work as a realtor without any restrictions.
To ensure you are dealing with trustworthy candidates, you would certainly do good to involve a lawyer or legal advisor to oversee your property dealings.
Better safe than sorry.

Strange But True
It’s actually quite surprising that such an important business doesn’t violate the Alien Employment Act here in Thailand. There are plenty of training courses in Thailand to learn about the real estate industry. But, hey — it all comes down to experience, doesn’t it?
How Do You Know If an Agent Is Qualified?
So, how do I know if a real estate agent working for a realtor firm is “experienced” or “qualified”, least to say? Well, the best way to find out is probably simply to do a Google search on the agency and see what others have to say about the firm you are dealing with. A long- and well-established track record says enough. When you are dealing with a “Fly by night” wannabee realtor, you might have to be cautious. It all comes down to knowledge and expertise while dealing in the property industry. Not only in Thailand but everywhere in the world.
