What are your options when renting a condo near Chulalongkorn University with a budget of THB 20,000 per month or less? If you are a student or a parent looking for accommodation around Sam Yan, start by comparing rental listings at Ideo Q Chula-Samyan and Wish @ Samyan, where advertised options include studios and one-bedroom units within this budget.
Finding the right condo involves more than comparing rent. Consider the usable space, your commute to your faculty building or workplace, furnishings, interior layout and additional expenses. This guide brings together examples and practical tips to help you find a suitable home.
The prices below are advertised listing prices and do not confirm availability. Please check the current rent and available move-in date before arranging a viewing.
| Project | Room type | Size | Advertised monthly rent |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ideo Q Chula-Samyan | Studio | 24 sq.m. | THB 19,000 |
| Wish @ Samyan | One bedroom | 35 sq.m. | THB 18,000 |
These prices apply to the individual examples, not every unit in each building. Rent may vary depending on size, floor, view, furnishings and lease length.
One example is a 24 sq.m. studio advertised at THB 19,000 per month. This is an option to consider if you plan to live alone and prefer a compact home that is easy to maintain.
Ideo Q Chula-Samyan has studios in several sizes, including approximately 22, 24 and 28 sq.m. Rent varies according to the floor area, floor level, view, condition and furnishings. Compare the details of each unit alongside your budget.
During a viewing, check whether there is enough space for a study desk, clothing storage and cooking. Confirm which appliances are included in the rent for the specific unit you are considering.

The project page includes listings at different price levels, so focus on units within your budget.
An example listing at Wish @ Samyan offers one bedroom and 35 sq.m. of space, advertised at THB 18,000 per month for a 12-month lease. It is worth comparing if you value usable space and a bedroom separated from the rest of the living area.
From our experience helping students find rental homes, some architecture students need extra space for a drafting table or model-making projects. Consider both the total floor area and the space available after furniture is in place. A larger unit does not always provide more usable workspace.
If you are still deciding, compare your options using these questions:
Whenever possible, view the unit and try your intended commute before deciding. However, some units are still occupied. Viewings must be coordinated with the current tenant, and it may not be possible to visit before making a reservation.
If an in-person viewing is unavailable, ask for recent photos and videos of the exact unit you are considering. Confirm its condition, the furniture and appliances included, and the handover date. A live video viewing may also be possible if everyone involved is available.
Before paying a reservation amount, obtain the unit details and reservation terms in writing, including what will happen if the unit cannot be handed over as agreed.
These are different budgets. If you can spend up to THB 20,000 on rent alone, you will still need to budget for water, electricity, internet and transport based on your actual usage.
If THB 20,000 must cover rent, utilities, internet, transport and food, choose a lower rent to leave enough for everyday expenses. For example, a unit renting for THB 18,000 leaves THB 2,000 for everything else. Calculate your own living costs before setting your rental budget.
Ask exactly what the rent includes and which expenses you will need to pay separately.
In addition to monthly expenses, you will need to prepare upfront payments according to the terms of your chosen unit.
For example, if the agreement requires one month’s rent in advance and a two-month security deposit:
These examples already include the first month’s rent. Moving costs and any other applicable expenses are additional.

There are advertised one-bedroom options within this budget, including the Wish @ Samyan example in this article. However, the price and availability must be reconfirmed before you decide.
Do not assume the price will be the same. Share your intended lease length from the beginning so the team can check suitable units and the applicable terms.
Send the listing link or reference number to the team, along with your preferred viewing date and intended move-in date. The team can then check the unit’s availability and coordinate a viewing.
Start by comparing units in the projects you are interested in. Let Baan Ying Property know your maximum monthly rent, intended move-in date and whether you prefer a studio or a one-bedroom unit. This will help our team check options that match your needs.
