I’m Artem Bukhkalov. I grow my family’s development business — VillaCarte Group — and personally help investors and relocators buy property on the island: from selection to rental income.
I work in the sales department of the family-run VillaCarte group. I see real availability, resales and terms before the market — you buy at the developer’s official price list.
Before this — an independent agent: 11 closed deals across the island and the launch of the first villacarte.academy cohort, where we trained real estate agents.
Furniture, move-in, rentals, income reports, the group’s concierge — one Telegram contact for everything, for as long as you own the unit.
Artem Bukhkalov is a Phuket real estate advisor in the sales department of the family-run development group VillaCarte Group and the founder of The Dream View. He has lived in Phuket since 2022; his family has been on the island since 2012.
Goal, budget, timeline. I’ll tell you honestly whether Phuket fits — sometimes I talk people out of it.
2–4 units matched to your goal, each with a yield calculation. Video viewing or a walk-through on the island.
Reservation, contract, FET transfer, registration. The group’s lawyers plus my personal control of every step. Fully remote if needed.
The unit joins the rental pool (60% of net profit goes to the owner), you receive reports and payouts. The concierge stays in touch.

VCG Club is our group’s own members club: phase launches, private events like Layan Planet, investor meetups. I’m inside these events, not reading about them in the news — my clients hear about offers and resales first.
Nothing for the buyer. I work on the developer’s side — VillaCarte Group: you get official developer prices, full support and my personal control of the deal, with no markups or hidden fees.
I am part of the group’s sales team — but with personal responsibility for you: one contact for everything before, during and after the deal, including rentals and concierge. Plus access to rare resales that never reach the open market.
Yes. Video viewings, legal checks, power of attorney and a remote closing are standard practice. Most of my clients bought without flying to the island.
The group’s projects run a rental pool: the owner receives 60% of the pool’s net profit — a ~8–10% net annual benchmark plus capital growth. I show calculations on real reports, not promises.

The flagships are Layan Verde and Layan Green Park, because I know them from the inside. But having sold across the whole Phuket market, I’ll tell you honestly if something else fits your goal better — and help with that too.
