Image credit: MJ Prototype\/Shutterstock<br \/>\nFaced with a flagging market, Thai luxury condo developers are striking out abroad to showcase their projects.<br \/>\nLeading the charge is Pace Development Corp, the mastermind behind the 77-storey MahaNakhon Tower also known as Thailand\u2019s tallest building. The property developer\u2019s chief executive officer, Sorapoj Techakraisri, told The Nation that it will head to Hong Kong in September for a roadshow that will promote the Ritz-Carlton Residences at MahaNakhon.<br \/>\nTechakraisri has resolved to sell out the remaining 30 percent of units at the Ritz-Carlton Residences, after \u201cwitnessing demand\u201d from foreign buyers, including investors from Asia, Europe and the Middle East.<br \/>\nPace has a sales backlog of THB14.5 billion (USD418 million).<br \/>\nMore: Bangkok\u2019s most expensive penthouses break real estate record<br \/>\nNot to be outdone, Sansiri will also hit Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan in the final months of the year with a sales target of THB42 billion (USD1.2 billion).<br \/>\nThis pivot to neighbouring countries comes amid a slowdown in the Bangkok residential market. Sales in the city and suburban areas decreased by 4.5 percent to THB171.22 billion (USD4.9 billion) in the first half of the year, according to property firm Pruksa Real Estate.<br \/>\nDevelopers can still pin their hopes on a strong finish this year. According to Pruksa Real Estate, the property market in Bangkok and its suburbs may yet grow by 8 percent this year to THB383.18 billion (USD11 billion), compared with THB354.79 billion (USD10.2 billion) last year.<br \/>\nEven the strengthening baht has not gotten developers worried. \u201cIt did not impact on demand to buy luxury condominiums in Thailand because most foreign investors were confident that Thai property prices were still lower than those in other countries in Asia,\u201d Pace Development chief financial officer Natha Kittiaksorn explained.<br \/>\nRead next: Luxury condo demand in Bangkok in tip-top shape&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : property-report.com&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.property-report.com\/thailands-luxury-developers-seek-outside-investments\/\" target=\"_blank\">Thailand\u2019s luxury developers seek outside investments<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; Thai developers are hitting the road to showcase luxury condo developments Bangkok\u2019s skyline with the&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-23365","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-64R","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":19570,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/finishing-touches-on-bangkoks-tallest-superluxury-tower\/","url_meta":{"origin":23365,"position":0},"title":"Finishing touches on Bangkok\u2019s tallest superluxury tower","date":"July 13, 2016","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Residents are expected to move in this Q3 2016 Image credit: MahaNakhon on Facebook The finishing touches are being put in place at the 77-story MahaNakhon tower, Bangkok\u2019s tallest building, and the first residents will start moving in throughout September.
