Maison Siam delivers 92% occupancy and 6.1% average net yield across our managed portfolio (verified, 12-month trailing). The 1-1.5% net yield uplift versus typical Bangkok property management is real, repeatable, and structurally tied to our investment in tenant placement + retention.
Talk to us. The math is simple: 1.5% yield uplift on a 20M THB property is 300k THB/year, against a 10% mgmt fee on 720k THB rental of 72k THB. We're paying for ourselves 4x over.
