No matter what type of visa you have, even on a tourist visa you can rent a home or condo in Thailand as a holiday property or, on a longer-term, with a suitable visa, a nice house or attractive condo for a year or longer.
"Baan Smile are courteous and knowledgeable on all aspects of coming to Thailand. They won’t hold back on suggesting all options that you may have even if you can do yourself. Thanks Apiporn."
