Reservation fee of THB 500,000 (prices of THB 50–100M) or THB 1,000,000 (above THB 100M), then either the standard plan — 20% on the contract and 20% at each of four construction milestones — or the deferred plan: 20% + 10% + 10% + 10% during construction and 50% after completion, financed over 1, 3 or 5 years in quarterly installments at 3%, 5% or 7%.
