Montezuma
Real Estate
 If you've been
thinking about buying a property in Costa Rica,
then congratulations, because you've found the perfect partner to help
you through the process. I've been working or investing in real estate
here for almost five years, and have personally purchased nine
properties,
in addition to working with hundreds of clients from all over the
world. As an owner and agent for Tropisphere Real Estate, I assure you
that we have the most listings of any real estate company in the area,
and I will work very hard not only to find your dream property in the
Montezuma area, but to help you through all the steps of buying and
then enjoying your purchase. For more info about Costa Rica, see Costaricajourneys.com
First, let's make sure that you understand what you're buying and why investing in this part of Costa Rica is a great idea. Click here: investing in Costa Rica to read my views on this. Despite the financial crisis in the U.S. and worldwide, the prices in Montezuma have remained stable, and there's still a lot of interest. Find out why.  Second,
finding your property. There is no MLS system for Costa
Rica real estate, so each company must find their own
listings. We have the most listings of any company in Montezuma, as
well as hundreds of listings in the neighboring areas of Santa Teresa,
Malpais, Playa Hermosa,
Tambor, Manzanillo, and Cabuya. After I learn more about you, I might
recommend one of these areas instead, depending on what I think will
make you happiest. Montezuma is a very special place, so click here: Montezuma
Lifestyle to read about Montezuma and see if it
seems like the place for you. I work in all these areas, so I'll be
able to help you no matter where you end up choosing. Check Tropisphere.com
for much more.
Third, going through the buying process. In most cases, foreigners have the same property rights as Costa Ricans, and unlike a place like Mexico, you can buy titled land which is in your name. You can even get title insurance through Stewart Title if you like. There are many poor lawyers in Costa Rica, but we will recommend a few great ones who speak English and will make sure everything goes smoothly for you. Generally, the buying process is easier in Costa Rica than in the U.S., Canada, or Europe, but there are many pitfalls. I have written an article here: Costa Rica Real Estate Investing Advice that describes many of the common problems to watch out for, many of which your lawyer may not find. Fourth, enjoying your purchase. We can recommend excellent builders and architects. Then, when you are ready to move or rent your place out, we will help you with rentals, property management, or moving to Costa Rica permanently. I'm especially knowledgable about Costa Rica green building, so if you're interested in learning how to make your house more "green" without spending more money, which adds comfort and value, contact me or check one of my websites about the subject.
