ABOUT
Roman Slesarev
Founder, aiproperty-phuket.com
Phuket has been my market since 2016. Over a decade in, the work is the same as on day one — match real buyers to real properties, sort signal from marketing noise, and keep the catalog honest. This page is the record of how long I've been doing it and at what scale.
By the numbers
Background
I started covering Phuket secondary-market property in 2016 as the island was midway through its second condo build-cycle. Since then I've sat across the table from owners, agents, developers, foreign buyers, and the Mueang Phuket Land Office for ten years of transfers, FET filings, leasehold structures, and post-sale management. Every district has a story; I've watched all of them rewrite.
What I actually do
- Maintain the live catalog of 5,500+ Phuket listings (sale + rental). Listings get pulled, validated, and de-duplicated daily.
- Advise foreign buyers through the full transaction: condo-quota verification, FET form preparation, SWIFT documentation, transfer day at the Land Office.
- Write district guides and market analyses for aiproperty-phuket.com — grounded in the catalog plus legal review by my Thai-bar advisor.
- Curate the post-sale operator network (property management, rental management, maintenance) — the part most marketing sites skip.
How I work
Every claim on this site gets sourced. Tax rates cite the Thai Revenue Department. Foreign-ownership rules cite the Condominium Act B.E. 2542 directly. Yields cite CBRE or Cushman Wakefield reports, not «according to our data». Legal content gets reviewed by Khun Thanyawat Suwankumnoet (Thai-bar attorney; his family practice handles our YMYL articles). That review process is published — see «Editorial Standards» for the full method.
Where you'll see my byline
I sign every district guide, project review, market overview, and editorial piece on the site. YMYL articles (foreign ownership, Condo Act, FET, taxes, leasehold-vs-freehold) carry a second signature — Khun Thanyawat's legal review — alongside mine. Lifestyle and project-pipeline content is mine alone.
Legal review for YMYL content
Khun Thanyawat Suwankumnoet — Thai-bar attorney at the family Law Office of Suwankumnoet (Phuket). Father-son legal practice: senior partner Khun Charoong Suwankumnoet (founder), Khun Thanyawat covers our YMYL reviews.
