Housing demand in Hua Hin continues to avoid major spikes seen elsewhere in Thailand with interest from domestic buyers being slightly higher than overseas property seekers. And after the COVID-19 pandemic saw a surge of demand for houses, villas and townhomes priced at THB5 million and less, people are now looking at more expensive properties.

Overall, housing demand in Hua Hin declined by 1.9 percent between the fourth quarter of 2021 and first quarter of this year. The situation did pick up in April and May with this being the strongest two-month period since December 2021 and January 2022.

There has been a shift in interest when it comes to price when comparing October 2021-May 2022 to the initial pandemic wave of April 2020-March 2021 which was driven primarily by house hunters looking for bargains.
