Most Phuket property advice is written by management companies trying to win your business, or developers trying to sell you something. We have no financial interest in which company you choose — our only goal is giving you the information you need to make the right decision.
No paid listings, no referral commissions, no conflicts of interest. Our reviews and recommendations are based purely on owner experiences.
We've spent years on the ground in Phuket, interviewing owners, auditing management contracts, and tracking occupancy data across all major areas.
Our insights come from thousands of owners who've shared their experiences — good and bad. Every company we feature has been reviewed by real clients.

Commission rates range from 15% to 30% — but the headline number rarely tells the whole story. Here's what to look for in the contract.
Thailand's rental income rules have changed significantly since 2023. What you need to declare, what's exempt, and how to stay compliant.
The conventional wisdom says short-term wins every time. The numbers tell a more nuanced story — especially post-peak season.
I was paying 25% commission and getting 40% occupancy. PhuketOwnerGuide helped me understand what "good" actually looks like — and switch to a manager who delivered 68% occupancy at 20%. Net income up 60%.
As an Australian owner who visits twice a year, I was completely in the dark about what was happening with my condo. This guide taught me what questions to ask and what red flags to watch for. Invaluable.
We were about to sign with the first management company we found. After reading the guide and using the comparison tool, we chose a different company — and I genuinely believe it saved us from a terrible mistake.
