What is "KaiFak"?
"KaiFak" or Sale with Rights of redemption refer to the legal rights granted to a party who has sold their personal property. However, he or she has the option to repurchase or redeem it within a specified period. These rights provide a safety net for individuals or businesses who may have experienced temporary financial difficulties and wish to regain ownership of their assets.
01
How "KaiFak" differs most from a Traditional Mortgage?
In contrast to a traditional mortgage, the owner transfers ownership documents to the lender, who becomes the official owner but allows the original to use the property. This arrangement simplifies possession for the lender in case of default.
For instance, a businessperson with a THB 300,000,000 beachfront plot need quick cash to develop a luxury resort. Instead of a lengthy bank loan process, they can transfer ownership to the from the start, allowing for immediate funds while retaining the option to buy back the land after 18 months.
02
Why choose this finance option when a mortgage might be available?
The borrower may prefer the KaiFak option due to minimal documentation and an asset-based approval process rather than a credit assessment. Lenders, having a vested interest in the land, may benefit from potential development or resale. Borrowers enjoy less hassle with approvals and no installment worries for 18 months, allowing them to generate cash and invest in their business. Importantly, defaulting on a KaiFak won't affect credit ratings, as it isn't classified as financial debt and isn't reported to Thailand's National Credit Bureau.
03
For how long is "KaiFak" exercised?
If there is no defined period, you cannot exercise the right of redemption later than ten years after the time of the sale in case of immovable property and three years after the time of sale in case of movable property.
You can extend the period of redemption by showing a contract and registering it to the Land Department. If the contract provides a longer period, it shall be shortened to ten years and three years respectively.
