This includes areas such as business districts, city centers, CBD zones, and locations nearby public transportation (like the BTS or MRT line), schools, shopping malls, or popular tourist cities. Condominiums in these locations often attract buyers, renters, and investors.

Another factor in choosing a location with potential that will support the growth of Rental Yield in the future is to look into the location’s future development plan.
