REIC's Q2 2026 second-hand housing report shows Phuket resale listings up 21.1% year-on-year, while completed ownership transfers grew only 4.8-6.3% — the slowest of any top-10 province. Asking value rose 32.7%, mostly on unit growth: Phuket's per-unit asking price rose 9.4%, slower than the 17% national rate.
The Ministry of Tourism and Sports' preliminary August count, published 1 September 2026, shows foreign arrivals down 3.1% year to date. Phuket's own occupancy, visitor numbers and revenue fell over the same stretch through July, even as Chinese arrivals rebounded nationally and Russian arrivals held almost flat.
On 27 August the Real Estate Information Center reported 167,665 nationwide title transfers in the first half of 2026, up 17.6% year on year, with transfer value at ฿429.8bn. Russian condo transfer value rose sharply in Phuket and Chonburi while overall foreign condo transfers fell. Fee-cut relief runs to mid-2027.
NESDC's national accounts of 17 August put construction sector growth at 0.1% for April–June 2026, down from 6.2% in the first quarter. Private construction grew 1.1%, held back by slower residential and non-residential building, while private investment rose 13.4% on machinery. What the split says about the building pipeline, and what it does not establish about Phuket.
The national accounts NESDC released on 17 August put international arrivals at 6.557 million in the second quarter of 2026, down 4.4% year on year, while receipts from those visitors rose 10.2% to ฿347 billion. Average hotel occupancy was 68.97%. What the split means for a Phuket owner earning from nights sold.
K-Research raised its 2026 forecast for foreign arrivals to Thailand from 30 million to 31.36 million on 14 August, days after the Ministry of Tourism reported 636,769 arrivals in a single week. What the revision rests on, and what it changes for Phuket rental owners.
Origin Property says it will raise its Phuket portfolio to ฿30bn by 2028, announced August 10. REIC data for the same market shows foreign condo transfers down 17.3% year-on-year — with Russia the one large market moving the other way.
