GOING DOWN A LIST OF PLACES WHERE YOU CANNOT BUY LAND AND BE ASSURED TO LIVE THERE

I ran across one such place by accident, Thailand.
You, a foreigner, cannot buy a square inch of land in Thailand, a byword corrupt holiday South Asian fairyland for foreigners from around the world including other Asians, tropical paradise, etc., poor country.

Even if you marry a Thai, no dice! Only the Thai can own it.

You can buy land in China, but would you?

Here you go, re China:
You would have to give up residency in the US, thats what I had to do when I lived in China.

And I hated it in China. So many poor beggars, asking for money. So much corruption, and the military there sucks ***.

And here re China: you can buy a home anywhere ....
getting a visa to spend time in it .,..is the problem part .
  
Mexico: Happens all of the time. I know many people who own property and houses in Mexico.

Apparently any idiot, a criminal, or any terrorist group, or foreign government agency,  can buy a house, or a whole community, in Mexico, just across the border. They can do the same here, inside the border.
 
Japan: Property titles can be registered to a foreign address so no matter where you reside, you are able to buy and sell land, forestry, homes, apartments, golf courses, private islands, apartments or entire buildings in Japan.
Purchasing and owning real estate in Japan will not make you eligible for a residence permit.
There has been increasing debate over restricting land ownership to foreigners, but these discussions are usually referring to purchasing land in areas that may be of importance to national security. For example, land adjoining military bases, or large tracts of forest that contain natural water sources.


Turkey:
In 2003, property purchases were opened to foreign nationals though restrictions were retained for various provinces. When these restrictions were violated in 2005, the law was annulled by Turkish courts. Despite this, property purchases continue. As of 2008, 63,085 individual properties have been sold to over 73,103 foreigners. This includes 38,623,661 square metres (415,741,630 sq ft) of land valued at US$10.4 billion, mostly by German, British and Greek citizens.[2]

I would expect that this trend will be reversed.....

How's bout Saudi Arabia? This was one comment:

In a report on Bloomberg last October, Abdulaziz Al Salem, a 28-year-old Saudi in the capital city of Riyadh, said “home ownership in this country is nothing short of a nightmare. If you’re not descended from a wealthy family or have an extremely successful business, you probably should give the whole thing a pass.”

Already a done deal here, radical Islamists could set up large shops here if they chose, no legal barrier, just go out of the country periodically.
