The Phuket Real Estate Forum 2025 highlighted that legal compliance and risk management are as vital as capital and design for driving investor confidence in Thailand’s premier island market.

Introduction:

At the Phuket Real Estate Forum 2025, the future of property investment in Thailand’s premier island market was examined not only through the lens of capital and design, but also through legal structure, compliance, and risk management—areas where experienced legal counsel plays a decisive role in investor confidence and sustainable development.

Event overview

The Phuket Real Estate Forum 2025, held on 20 November 2025 at the Similan Ballroom, SAii Laguna Phuket, brought together more than 300 senior stakeholders from Thailand’s real estate, hospitality, investment, and professional services sectors. Organized by C9 Hotelworks in collaboration with leading industry partners, the forum formed part of the C9 Sessions thought-leadership series focused on market intelligence and strategic foresight. 

The event examined Phuket’s evolution from a tourism-driven destination into a mature residential and investment market, with discussions spanning capital flows, development fundamentals, innovative ownership models, serviced living concepts, and future-ready design. For investors and developers alike, the forum highlighted the growing importance of legal structure, regulatory compliance, and cross-border advisory in enabling secure, scalable, and sustainable property investment in Thailand’s premier island market. 

During the networking session, Fabian Doppler, Founder and Managing Partner of Frank Legal & Tax, together with his associate Elizaveta Besstrashnaya, engaged with developers, investors, and industry leaders, exchanging insights on foreign investment structures, real estate transactions, and tax-efficient ownership solutions. Their engagement highlighted the essential role of experienced legal and tax advisors in supporting Phuket’s expanding real estate ecosystem.
