Leasehold is the norm rather than the exception on this part of the park axis, and it is not a lesser thing. It usually costs less per square metre than equivalent freehold, and a foreign buyer can hold it without competing for the 49% freehold quota that applies to a Thai condominium.

The trade‑off is at the far end: a lease is finite and its renewal terms matter more than the headline years. That is the document to read before anything else, and it has not been released.
