Managing Director
Who is Julien Cusimano?
Julien Cusimano is Managing Director of Expert Property Asia on Koh Samui. He came to property through operations in France, then day-to-day villa management on the island; his Koh Samui villa-operations experience includes 2018–2020, before EPA opened in 2023. Today he advises buyers and sellers from the Bophut desk on properties the firm represents directly.
Before EPA, the work was hands-on. Villas had to be opened, maintained, staffed, checked, repaired, booked, and handed over. Guests arrived. Owners called. Suppliers missed windows. Small problems became expensive when nobody noticed them early.
That is why Julien reads a property from the back of house as much as from the terrace. The pump room, the access road, the slope, the title route, the neighbour, the manager, the likely buyer in five years — all of it belongs in the same conversation.
Julien founded Expert Property Asia in 2023 to offer thoughtful property guidance, clear seller authority, and counsel-led review when Thai ownership, leasehold, tax, or company structure is involved. He works in French and English from 106, T, 5, Bo Put, Amphoe Ko Samui, Surat Thani 84320, Thailand — ten years on Koh Samui across the Gold Triangle: Bophut, Chaweng Noi, and Choeng Mon.

Working with Julien
How does Julien work with buyers and sellers?
Buyer requirements start with fit, not inventory. Julien checks area, access, ownership type, seller authority, management expectations, and resale considerations before arranging private viewings. For sellers, he takes time to understand who has authority to sell, which documents are available for review, and which buyer profile is realistic.
That order matters. A shortlist should get narrower as facts improve, not wider because another property has appeared online. EPA does not need every listing on Koh Samui. Representation should be clear enough to protect the seller and respect the buyer’s time.
Qualified Thai property counsel confirms legal structure before offer, deposit, or completion. Sellers who need a valuation path can start at book a property valuation. Live mandates are on properties for sale.

Operational view
Why does Julien’s villa operations background matter?
Villa management shows what a viewing can hide: supplier reliability, access after rain, maintenance rhythm, booking pressure, handover quality, and running cost. Julien managed villas on Koh Samui day-to-day from 2018–2020, before founding EPA in 2023, so those questions come early — before a buyer pays a reservation deposit.
A terrace view matters. So does the road below it, the pump room behind it, and the person who answers when something fails on a Sunday. Neighbourhood context sits in the Koh Samui area guides.
Editorial voice
Who writes Expert Property Asia’s market notes?
Julien Cusimano authors Our Experts Journal – monthly market notes from the Bophut desk on who is buying, which neighbourhoods fit a hold, and what to verify before an offer. He is the named reviewer on EPA’s editorial policy. Ownership law, tenure, and tax sit in Koh Samui market intelligence.
The journal reads like correspondence between viewings, not a listing feed. Market intelligence covers serious ownership, tenure, and tax questions, including Property investment in Thailand, leasehold vs freehold, and property tax for foreign buyers. Read the detail carefully and seek qualified Thai property counsel before any offer or payment.
