Lek, The next time you come to Korat we can go to see my lawyer about the property transfer into the new names of Lek (you) and Tommy. She (Mam) will need to have both your names with correct spelling in Thai script.
Then we talk with her about correct transfer proceedure from name of Somkuan to you & Tommy.
She can type out a transfer agreement in English and Thai. Take this to Banchang Amphur Office with Somkuan, Tommy, you and me. I think there is no need for a lawyer in Banchang if we prepare the documents properly.
Tommy may come out from jail at any time in the next 2 months, so we should be ready. You and Somkuan will need to talk with Tommy as soon as possible after his release to make sure you like him and are happy to have joint ownership of house in Banchang.
I will then make a lease agreement so that I can lease the house from you and Tommy during my lifetime. When I die you can keep it or sell it, up to you. Dave
