{"ai_json_enabled":true,"answer":"To avoid the common red flags from turning into problems, ask for written evidence that the title is clear and all building permits are in order. Request the exact documents and confirm they relate to the property you\u2019re considering. Useful items include: - The title deed (chanote) and any title history, plus copies of land-office records showing ownership and boundaries. - The most recent transfer receipts and tax payments for the property. - Current building permits, occupancy or usage certificates, and any planning approvals or deviations. - Evidence of any encumbrances, liens, caveats, or easements that could affect ownership or access. - Site plans, survey reports, and a current bill of sale or sale contract, plus estate or common-area agreements if applicable. - Recent service records and maintenance bills for major systems, plus any guarantees or warranties on works. - Any contracts with developers or sellers that outline responsibilities and deadlines. Have an independent Thai lawyer review all documents and confirm they match the exact property (address, unit or parcel) and that nothing inconsistent exists between papers. If documents are missing or unclear, ask for explanations and a timeline to obtain proper copies before you commit.","answer_source":"openai_conversational_breadcrumb","category":"Red Flags & Buyer Mistakes","category_slug":"red-flags-and-buyer-mistakes","confidence":"grounded_in_approved_property_guide_context","conversation_depth":1,"conversation_followup_type":"evidence","conversation_parent_slug":"what-are-common-red-flags-when-buying-property-in-thailand","conversation_reason":"It builds on red flags by specifying concrete documents and independent review needed to verify title and permits.","conversation_root_slug":"what-are-common-red-flags-when-buying-property-in-thailand","created_at":"2026-08-31T19:23:09+00:00","daily_publish_cap":3,"date_published":"2026-09-01","display_date":"2026-09-01","drip_batch":"2026-09-01","drip_status":"daily_auto_published","freshness_warning":"Property availability, prices, ownership rules, taxes, fees and legal requirements can change.
