Phuket Property Handover: Keys, Codes and Digital Accounts

Key Takeaways

  • Count keys, cards, remotes, mailbox keys and mechanical overrides; test each one.
  • Record alarm, gate, safe, Wi-Fi and smart-lock procedures without placing passwords in the sale contract.
  • Transfer administrator ownership for cameras, routers, solar, pool, air-conditioning and smart-home apps.
  • Change recovery email, phone, two-factor authentication and vendor permissions.
  • Photograph meter readings and confirm utility, juristic, insurance and management contacts.

Control keys, remotes, access codes, smart-home accounts, utilities and administrator rights at completion.

Take Control at Property Handover

Ownership can transfer while a former owner, agent or contractor still controls a gate remote, camera account or booking login. Build an access register before completion.
