What happened

Some supportReported by 2 outlets

Luxury sales value in Phuket, Thailand, recorded a 900 per cent year-on-year increase, according to Banyan Group Residences reports. This growth underscores a polarizing residential property market. Genuinely differentiated luxury residences continue to attract strong demand, while lower-priced, investment-led segments show signs of saturation and oversupply.

The market is distinguishing clearly between high-quality residences in prime locations, which premium buyers favor for long-term value, and commoditized products built for short-term speculation. This trend validates Phuket's status as a premier luxury destination.
