Ownership Options:

AELORA Residence is offered under a leasehold structure.

The lease is transferred to the purchaser and registered on the Chanote land title deed. The project materials state that the building permit is issued in the buyer’s name before construction, which provides additional security during the construction process.

The land lease is paid 3 years in advance, with no increase, or the buyer may choose to pay the full 30-year lease upfront.

Our team verifies the exact leasehold structure for the selected villa before reservation. This includes checking the lease term, lease payment schedule, transfer process, registration details, building permit process, legal costs, and associated fees.

The lease transfer fee is 1.1% of the total 30-year lease price and is paid at the Land Office.

Legal fees for the lease contract and lawyer Power of Attorney are listed at 30,000 THB in the project’s cost sheet.

This structure gives foreign buyers a clear route to secure a villa in Koh Samui while our team supports the ownership explanation, document review and reservation process.
