Ask the lawyer whether a Thai company is really needed to own land, who would hold shares, and whether foreigners can own the land directly. Request a clear explanation of risks from nominee shareholders, potential tax implications, and how ownership, borrowing, and transfer rights would work under a corporate structure. Have the lawyer review any shareholding agreements, the company's purpose and governance, and how it would affect title and future transfers. Ask for a written risk assessment tailored to your property and transaction, including how stamp duties, capital gains, and transfer taxes would apply. Require written confirmations of any legal opinion and ensure that independent advisers validate the advice before you commit funds.
