Disclaimer: Projections are illustrative only, based on 2025–2026 Koh Samui market averages. Gross yield modelled at 10% of purchase price at full-year capacity — consistent with published data for well-managed 2–4 bedroom pool villas (sources: Bamboo Routes, Conrad Properties, Haven, Sept 2025). Capital appreciation modelled at 7% p.a. — mid-range of the 5–10% p.a. island average for prime locations. A professional management fee of 15% is deducted; additional operating costs (maintenance, utilities, insurance) will reduce net yield further. Actual returns depend on property specification, location, management, and market conditions. This is not financial advice. Sasipimon Estate does not guarantee any specific yield or return.
