Phuket Villa Price & Rental Yield Index

By district

A dash means the sample is too thin to publish a number: medians need 5 listings, a yield needs 4 villas offered for sale and for long-term rent at the same time (9 districts clear that bar today). Est. yield /m²is the weaker, wider-coverage figure: the district’s median rent per m² against its median sale price per m², 5+ listings each side. It covers 3 further districtswhere too few villas are offered both ways to pair, and it is an estimate — where both columns exist they sit within about a point of each other. District names link to the villas the figures come from.

How these numbers are built

• Asking prices, not sale prices. Thailand has no open register of transaction values, so no one can publish deed-based medians for Phuket. Every figure here is what a villa was being offered at.
• The luxury segment.Villas and houses from ฿10M to buy and ฿80,000 a month to rent — the same floor the rest of this site applies, so the index can never contradict the counters on a district page. Condos and apartments are excluded.
• Available at the time. Reserved and let properties are left out; their prices are already historic.
• Long-term rent. Monthly asking rent on leases of six to twelve months, not holiday-let nightly rates, which run several times higher.
• Medians, not averages. The median is the middle listing, printed as it stands rather than interpolated. One ฿400M estate cannot move it.
• Yields are paired per villa.Each property that is offered both ways gives its own rent × 12 ÷ its own asking price; the district figure is the median of those. Dividing a district’s median rent by its median price would compare two different sets of villas and read high.
• The per-m² estimate is a second-best.Most districts never have enough villas listed for sale and for rent at once to pair, so they also carry an estimate: the district’s median rent per m² against its median sale price per m². It still compares two different sets of villas — but per m², which cancels the difference that actually distorts a naive median-rent ÷ median-price ratio, because rental stock skews smaller than sale stock. Where a district carries both figures, they agree within roughly a point. It is labelled an estimate everywhere it appears, and it is never mixed into the paired column.
• Gross, not net. Nothing is deducted for management, maintenance, common-area fees, vacancy or tax. A realistic net for a managed Phuket villa runs meaningfully below the gross figure.
• One agency’s book.This is ZEN’s catalogue, not the whole island. It is a large sample of the luxury segment, and it is the sample we can vouch for line by line.
