Protecting Your Investment

2011-08-18 14:40:34

Halfway through building a house up Chaiyapum.
Firstly there is no Thai girlfriend involved, it is my friends wife who has everything in her name.
Been family friends for 7+years and my mate who I work with has been married to her for 11 years.

She is helping me to build my retirement home (I am 56).  She is has a local lawyer who will transfer title of land and house to any Thai Lady I may meet.  But she is scared that Thai GF will not have the most honest of motives, so wants me to get independent legal advise.

Sunbelt will be contacted when I come home on leave.  At present working offshore, China.

Can someone advise me please on the following and anything else that may spring to mind???
1) Told that if I marry, I can get a lease from my wife for 15 x 2 years to stay in the property, but if we divorce that lease agreement is void, this correct??  

2) Also the lease can be sold to a 3rd party.
Is that correct?

3) The person that gives me a lease......  That person dies..... her family inherit the property and can evict me??
This correct

4) Heard that the Thai person who owns the land can sign a document at the land registry giving up rights to the land/house for the duration of my life.  (This is more interesting)
Is this correct.


All advise comments welcomed.  Realise I will need to take legal advise (Sunbelt?) only wish to know options, pitfalls and questions I will need to have answered.

Thanks in advance.

Married Visa

2010-08-03 08:25:13

Live here and work offshore Far East, come and go on a 90 day type "O" visa which I renew during a return trip to the UK.
  
Been in a relationship for 4 years, if I have a Thai wedding, can I change my visa to marriage???  

Or do I need to have a UK style/approved marriage to qualify.

I have been seperated from my UK wife for 8 years. For her own reasons she will not agree to an amicable divorce.  
Reasons are inhieritence, insurance and her new found christian beliefs.

Some people have told me I can apply for a divorce without her permission owing to the time seperated??  Have no idea, how genuine this is?

Excuse the long winded questions.

Regards
