I have heard from a friend of mine who's father is a lawyer (Thai) that a farang can own a house and land here in thailand, but they have to have been living here for '10 or 20 years'. I asked him if he can find out for sure.

Has anyone else heard of this?

Better to rent.You can have a really nice furnished house 6,000 baht+.month. Thats a mere 72,000 baht a year!house contents included. No legal documents ,no hassle,
I bought a house,now the ex has it.Yes,I thought It was for life,But one never knows whats around the corner! 2M baht a lot of money to lose.
But Seems you are not going to live here permantly?If not,Why interested to buy a house?
Be careful Konan.Plenty of time.Maybe rent first .See about buy later.

That's a good point. It goes back to the old adage, 'invest in LOS only as much as you can afford to walk away from.'
