2025 Recap: AI, Real Estate and the Strategy for 2026

2025 was the year I stopped treating AI as an experiment.

I began using it as a serious working tool.
.

AI became part of how I wrote articles
created images, video and audio
and connected content production with real estate sales.

The lesson was clear.

One person can now produce far more than before
when they understand how to use the technology with discipline.
.

At the beginning of the year
I set a target of writing 200 substantial articles
about real estate, finance, tax and practical knowledge.

These were not short captions.

Each article required thought
analysis
and responsibility for the information presented.

The target demanded roughly one article every two days.

I finished the year with 222 articles.
.

That result changed how I see AI.

AI does not simply replace people.

It amplifies people who already have judgment
experience
and the willingness to learn.

It shortens production time
raises productivity
removes unnecessary steps
and dramatically lowers the cost of creating useful work.
.

The year also included two major courses:

Closing Real Estate Sales with AI
and Real Estate Rental Law.

My rule for teaching is simple.

I do not teach a subject
unless I am prepared to answer the students’ questions
and help them apply the knowledge to real situations.

The content must follow a clear sequence.

It must combine practical instruction with storytelling
without becoming unnecessarily academic.
.

The wider property market was far less comfortable.

Agents and developers worked harder
while many earned less.

The greatest danger was not only the slowing market.

It was moving without understanding
where the market was heading.
.

Throughout the year
I studied local, national and global information
that could affect Thailand’s economy and property industry.

That preparation helped determine
when to emphasize sales
when to focus on rentals
when houses offered better opportunities
and when land deserved attention.
.

My outlook for 2026 remains cautious.

Political uncertainty
weak confidence
scams
corruption
regional conflict
and pressure on household and business finances
continue to affect investment sentiment.

Many private investors have become more defensive with cash.

Foreign capital can also move to other markets
when Thailand does not offer a sufficiently strong reason to stay.
.

This led me to reconsider where opportunity still exists.

One answer is the financial system.

Banks remain among the largest pools of capital in the country.

Instead of seeing a bank only as a creditor
I began studying how bank policy
accounting
tax
cash flow
credit conditions
and debt restructuring work together.
.

That learning created a new professional direction:

Business Financial Consultant.

It complements real estate
because property decisions are inseparable from finance
liquidity
credit
and the ability to structure a transaction.
.

The strategy for the next phase is to use established credit
and financial knowledge
to expand into capital-side opportunities.

These may include mortgages and sale-with-right-of-redemption transactions
NPL and NPA assets
renovation
contracting
and structured solutions for people facing debt problems.

The goal is practical.

Create work.

Create income.

Build a team that can remain resilient
even when the wider market is weak.
.

The year also brought opportunities to contribute knowledge
through major media channels
on Airbnb
real estate law
property reservation and transfer issues
and the development of professional standards for real estate agents.

These roles were not about seeking a political position.

They were about providing useful public information
and helping the industry move in a better direction.
.

None of this would have been possible
without a strong team behind the work.

Good operations create the space
for ideas
experiments
writing
fieldwork
and long-term planning.
.

2026 may not be an easy year.

But difficult markets do not remove every opportunity.

They reward people who stay informed
manage cash carefully
understand credit
and prepare before the market forces them to react.

Do the present well.

And do not forget to build a plan for the future.
