About
Jeerat Wechsawan, known as Yui, is the HR Manager and Senior Property Consultant at Pattaya Prestige Properties. With 19 years of experience across Thai real estate and property management, including 11 years with Prestige Properties, she is one of the company's most established consultants and the internal lead on people, process and client service.
Yui runs the company's HR function while continuing to consult directly on family homes, pool villas and rental properties. Her day-to-day sits at the intersection of three networks: Thai property owners and developers, international buyers and renters, and the internal team she helps manage.
How She Works
Yui is recognised by clients and colleagues for her communication and people skills: approachable, attentive, and consistent in how she handles enquiries. She is a strong coordinator across clients, owners, tenants and internal teams, and she is the kind of person who solves problems calmly when unexpected situations come up (title-deed complications, ownership transfers between Thai relatives, tenant-in-place scenarios or last-minute renegotiations).
She is responsible, organised and detail-oriented, proactive in chasing an owner, a document or a partner before being asked, and she holds herself and the team to a "done properly" standard. Many of her clients return for second and third purchases, a pattern built on consistent service, transparent communication and follow-through after contracts are signed.
Coverage & Specialisation
- Property types: Detached pool villas, family homes, residential land, resale condominiums, rental investment properties and emerging-development houses

- Client support: Thai buyers, overseas buyers, relocating families, retirees, landlords, sellers and long-stay renters

Yui maintains deep, on-the-ground knowledge of Pattaya's eastern residential corridor. Her local network gives her direct lines to Thai property owners, village heads and community managers, a key advantage when sourcing off-market villas and resale family homes. She advises clients on developer reputation, build quality, land title (chanote vs. nor sor sam), estate management fees and the long-term capital trajectory of each sub-district.
About
Pichaya, known as Vanda, is the Office Manager and Property Consultant at Pattaya Prestige Properties, with 9 years of experience in the Pattaya real estate market and 7 of those with Prestige Properties. She brings strong knowledge of property sales and long-term rentals, and handles the full transaction process from initial enquiry and viewings through negotiation, contracts and completion.
Vanda is the friendly first voice clients hear when they contact the office, and the steady presence that keeps the back office running. Her role combines transaction work with office management: viewings, owner coordination, documentation flow, scheduling and the day-to-day operations that keep the team focused on clients.
How She Works
Vanda is known internally and among clients as super friendly, always ready to help, and quick to respond. She works hard, takes ownership of what she commits to, and brings a positive energy that clients consistently comment on. Her communication and negotiation style is built on long-term relationships rather than one-off transactions, which means clients return to her for repeat purchases, rental placements and referrals.
As Office Manager, she is also the person who makes sure the rest of the team has what they need to deliver: documents, owner introductions, viewing logistics and the small operational details that often decide whether a deal closes smoothly or drags on.
Coverage & Specialisation

- Locations: Central Pattaya, Pratumnak, Jomtien, Na Jomtien, Wongamat and East Pattaya

Vanda maintains working knowledge of Pattaya's main sales and rental corridors, advising clients on developer reputation, building management quality, long-term rental yields and the practical differences between buying for personal use and buying for income. Her strength is making the transaction feel organised and personal at the same time.
