YOU make commissions, so its in ur best interest, if ur perspective clients are english speakers, to do a lot better with your english listings
Also as Kammekor says, get ur own domain and dedicated email, only cost ya a $100 or so a year

"...he don't like something brandy"
not only terrible englsh, but i have no idea what brandy means

I will keep $100 per year to donate poor children .

Thank you

Both

OK Ken, in your signature you ask for comments for improvement. I have some....

If you try to rent out a 4000 USD per month villa, don't try to do so with a free, anonymous gmail address. Register a nice domain name in your own name, and use that one for your business e-mail. Provides both you and your clients with a level of privacy that should come with these kind of rental prices.

Then, if people are paying that kind of money for renting a property, they will expect decent written English in the advertisement. Not the second grade English full of typos and grammar mistakes you provide them with. Have someone with decent command of English go through your adds with you, pay him or her 25 bucks, and publish a decent ad next time.

Here, look and find the errors, there's at least 10 in the text below:

Nice 2 Livingroom and 1 Kitchen
Another floors plus Balcony
Full Furnished

Privately villa located in Chatomok closed to royal palace , there is 5 Bedrooms and bathrooms , swimming pool , and very nice garden around , a nice place for family , new renovation with living style Western , I would like to invite you to inspection before too late , long term lease suitable .
Walking distance to river, national parks etc ...

You're welcome,

Spoiler:

No, I don't tell you what they are, make an effort yourself!

and yes, i had to edit for typos myself

Look at Mark CEO fb , he don't like something brandy ...Most important the property suit with customers , it's not about email domain name , professional or big or small company .
I do my way and my English grammar it's not my native language . i will take attention my next post . fork looking to hunt property not to hunted my mistake spelling my writing .
Thank you for always pay high attention to scrolled my ads . Please continue to correct next ....

Communicating properly with clients is not what I would call 'brandy', assuming I know what 'brandy' is. It's just a necessity for doing proper business and for making deals. But to each his own.

And personally, if someone approaches me for business using a 'free' gmail or hotmail, or similar address, you know what I do?
Exactly - not waste my time reading it.

The fact English is not your mother-tongue is no excuse, its not mine too. But if you choose to offer high quality services or products to English speaking customers, speaking or writing pidgin English is not supporting your business. It's that simple Ken. And it's easy to avoid. You use the same descriptions all the time (that could be another advice....), so once you've got your basic sentences correct you can build from that.

But hey, you thought it all through, and all's well. Good luck with your business. And maybe change your signature back to 'run for your life'?

Oh yeah, and I edited 'advise' to 'advice'. No native speaker.....

Chaktomuk is a nice area but it has some very noisy night clubs. Some of them well within earshot of expensive villas. I'm always amazed the owners do not have the clout to get the clubs to turn it down.

Yes , i agreed

Chaktomuk district is huge and like anywhere has quiet/noisy/rich/poor areas all mixed up. It looks like a nice place anyway and as far as I know that's not a bad price for a central villa with a pool. I'd move there in a second if I could afford it!
