How 15,000–20,000 baht differs from 15,000 baht
Compared with units at 15,000 baht or less (median 13,000 baht, 28 sqm), paying about 5,000 baht more a month gets you two things:

Tips for this budget
- Compare rent per sqm, not just rent: a 35-sqm unit at 17,500 baht can be better value than a 28-sqm unit at 16,000 baht.
- Ask about the minimum lease. Every DooAsset listing that states one says 12 months; if you need less, ask before the viewing.
- Units in the same building differ by floor, view and furniture. Open the building page to see every available unit in it.
