About · your neighbor in Bangkok
Hi, I'm Bank.
Phongsakorn Thavornan · พงศกร ถาวรนันท์
I help people moving to Bangkok find the neighborhood that fits how they live — and I'm still around after they move in.
Yes, my name is Bank. No, I can't hold your deposit.
The short version
- Phongsakorn "Bank" Thavornan
- Help people moving to Bangkok choose a neighborhood, then find, rent or buy a condo there
- Sukhumvit from Asok to On Nut, plus Ari and Silom–Sathorn
- English, Thai — and Mandarin, still learning
- Commission when a deal closes. For rentals, usually paid by the landlord
How I can help
From "where should we live?" to move-out day.
Pick the right neighborhood
Tell me where you work, who you live with and your budget. I'll narrow Bangkok down to two or three areas — and walk you through them on a video call if you're still abroad.
Find and view the right condo
I shortlist rooms that fit, line up viewings, and tell you plainly what each one is good and bad for.
Check the deal before you sign
Rent, deposit, contract terms, and the small things that cause trouble later — in plain English.
Someone to call
When something breaks or the landlord goes quiet, I help sort it out.
Renew, move, or get your deposit back
Whether you stay, upgrade or leave Bangkok, I help with the next step.
How I work
Four things I won't change.
I walk it before I write it.
Every neighborhood on this site is one I have walked myself, with a date on the note.
I tell you who it's not for.
No place is bad. But every place is wrong for someone — and I'll say so.
I'm open about how I earn.
I'm an agent and I earn a commission. That's why a bad fit is bad for me, too.
I stay after you sign.
AC breaks, the landlord goes quiet, move-out day comes — you can still call me.
Find me elsewhere
Same name, same face, everywhere.
Moving soon?
