Introduction
Our Mission
At Better-than-Freehold™ (BtF), we are revolutionising property investment in Thailand by offering a secure, compliant, and innovative solution for foreign investors. Our mission is to provide a legally sound and transparent platform that empowers investors to access Thai property markets without the risks associated with traditional nominee structures.
Our Vision
Our vision is to set a new standard for property ownership rights in Thailand, ensuring compliance with Thai law while delivering peace of mind and financial security to our clients. The BtF method was meticulously developed to address the challenges foreign investors face; combining legal expertise, financial innovation and a commitment to transparency.
History and Development
The BtF platform was conceptualised and developed by Venture Management Ltd (VM), leveraging decades of experience in Thai property law, capital markets and international compliance. Recognising the increasing regulatory scrutiny under legislative frameworks such as the Anti-Money Laundering Act ("AMLA") 2025 and the Foreign Business Act ("FBA"), we have created a proprietary structure that eliminates nominee risks while ensuring enforceable usage rights for foreign investors.
Our journey began with a simple goal: to provide a better alternative to freehold ownership that aligns with Thai legal frameworks. Today, the BtF method is a trusted solution for investors, developers, and advisors seeking a future-proofed approach to property investment in Thailand.
