Re: info for cost to build
Sorry, what about the land you build on. That is a seperate cost is it not?
Do you need to be resident or married to a Kymer to build a house?

And get those foundations right, before you start building.

Re: info for cost to build
Yes. If you want to own the hard title. There are places offering land for rent on 10 year fixed rates etc for those that are barang couples/ singles. Best buy when your in a good relationship with a good woman and her family backing you. And there's the rub: so many dodgey Khmers they make the barang look like kittens. Also. builders are the biggest thieves out here that most of us will come across. They steal before, during and after the job. BEWARE.shnoukieBRO wrote:Sorry, what about the land you build on.

I may be a tad cynical but remember you are here to supply a hierarchy with money, just be sure your picking the right hierarchy.

Re: info for cost to build
You can rent land on long term lease and build on it with the land lords permission. If you want to own the land, then it needs to be in a Cambodian citizens name as foreigners cannot own land in Cambodia.shnoukieBRO wrote:Sorry, what about the land you build on. That is a seperate cost is it not?

So how much is the rent gonna be p/a. How much does the 'permission' actually cost, if it's an 'extra'?PSD-Kiwi wrote:You can rent land on long term lease and build on it with the land lords permission.

Re: info for cost to build
Hard titles can be ridiculously cheap compared to what they are taking off foreigners in rent let alone hard title. EG a Khmer I know got a 20 x 50m plot for $1000 hard title. In the very near vicinity, I was renting slightly smaller for 1440 pa fixed for 10 years.shnoukieBRO wrote:So how much are we talking here for hard title?juansweetpotato wrote:Yes.

Re: info for cost to build
Cool.
So lets add it all up then. Let's assume renting land for 10 years@ $1000 p/a, and built property @ $20,000. That means it will cost $30, 000 in 10 years, or $3,000 per year, or $250 per month.
Not as cheap as i thought.
What if after 10 years he doesn't rent it to you any more? Then of course you have bills to pay. What about when you renew your visa someone squats in it?

Re: info for cost to build
i think you can use shipping container for your house, because:
1/ Cheap cheap and very cheap
2/ Very fast for build
3/ Easily moved
example for cafe container the same house container

Re: info for cost to build
Yea container housing is even catching on in the UK!
Mind you, looks like without that 'hard title', renting a room off someone else might be a better option, whilst having freedom to leave as you when suits you. I wonder how many expats actually live in Cambodia for 10 years?

More than just any old backpacker.

Rust and the heat would be problems here. Just leave a piece of metal out in the sun you'll see for yourself.
