Estate agents race for the UNIVERSAL Group Developers CUP May 2013

Saturday, May 18th, 2013.

A fun filled networking day for many of Pattaya’s finest real estate agents.


What is the perfect Saturday afternoon? For male readers the answer is obvious. It is lounging back in an extremely comfortable chair watching live footy on a big screen TV while slurping down ice-cold beers like your life depended on them. Unfortunately, this is not always possible so when you are invited instead to a function where all the booze and food is complimentary you tend to take the disappointment on the chin.
Such was the case on Saturday afternoon, when I attended the Pattaya Condo Guide Real Estate Grand Prix. First prize was the coveted Universal Cup, sponsored by Universal Group Thailand, developers of Seven Seas condo resort Jomtien & Savanna Sands....Where dreams live... The event was held at Easy Kart, near Pattaya’s Bali Hai Pier, only 200 metres from Walking Street. The occasion was to determine the “fastest real estate agent in Pattaya” through the inaugural running of the Pattaya Condo Guide Real Estate Grand Prix. I was informed that in Pattaya real estate circles the Universal Cup is the mechanised equivalent of the equine American Kentucky Derby, Australia’s Melbourne Cup and the French Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe combined.
With cold beer, wine, soft drinks and delicious ‘finger’ food supplied by Pattaya’s own Sportsman Pub and Restaurant, the intelligentsia of Pattaya were there and I rubbed shoulders with people whose names I cannot even pronounce. Some of the ladies threatened to have me arrested if I didn’t stop rubbing their shoulders but most simply smiled and slapped my face. Movers and shakers I recognised included names such as Riki Lauda from Jomtien, John Brabham from Mabprachan, Alan Prost from Naklua and Malcolm Schumacher of Soi Buakow.
The actual competition consisted of a series of hotly-contested races with the ten fastest drivers fighting out the fifteen lap grand final. As the drivers were heading to their cars for the final race I asked one if he’d ever had a bigger thrill in his life. Surprisingly, he said yes, his biggest thrill was winning 25 million Euros in the European lottery six years ago.
The nine fastest drivers put on a spectacular show with all the drama, emotion and tension you would expect in Monte Carlo. But there can be only one winner and it came as no surprise that the winner was a lovely Thai lady, Khun Dao, representing Vauban Real Estate, one of the many independent real estate agencies in Thailand. Coincidentally, Khun Dao is also the wife of Easy Kart’s Managing Director. Fighting my way through the paparazzi I asked Khun Dao to what did she attribute her success? She replied with a smile, “Just driving in Pattaya every day.”
Second place went to Martin from Siam Properties which has many years of experience in the Pattaya real estate market. Joni from Hans Lanker Co. Ltd., your reliable partner in all matters of law and real estate, took out third spot.
For an armchair sportsman like myself, the excitement of this event was unparalleled and I congratulate the Pattaya Condo Guide and Universal Group Thailand for putting on a splendid afternoon of fun and sport. As the sun set slowly in the east, tired and emotional drivers and their pit crews made their way from the battlefield, consoled by the knowledge that even though they didn’t win they had fought a good fight.
And of course, the next Pattaya Condo Guide Real Estate Grand Prix will even better, with complimentary food and beverages available throughout the next event.
