Montezuma Real Estate
If you've been thinking about buying a property in Costa Rica, then congradulations, 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 eight 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.
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 in Costa Rica, so each real estate company must find their own listings. Wee 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.
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.

Montezuma Falls Lot - 5681 m2

This is one of the most exciting properties for sale on the peninsula, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own the best
that Costa Rica has to offer. Not only does it have an incredible ocean view where you
can see the waves breaking on rocks below, but it has a private path to Montezuma Falls, the best waterfall on the peninsula,
where you can swim laps everyday and play on the rope-swing. Plus, the building pad has been created in such a way so you
will never see any neighbors, for almost complete privacy. This is a must-see!

Ocean front hotel lot with concession - 7421m2
$386,000
Wow, this is a phenomenal fire-sale bargain! Ocean-front property with a new concession for 20 years. This is located only 2 km south of Montezuma, on Playa Las Manchas, one of the most beautiful beaches in the area, and rated one of the ten cleanest beaches in Costa Rica. The property is very flat with some giant Pochote and Mango trees. Perfect for anyone wanting to do a business in the Montezuma area. I think this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

This is easily one of the best properties for sale on the peninsula. It has three hills on it, two of which have ocean
views. It borders a river with abeautiful and private waterfall and swimming hole very near it. It
also has one of the most massive trees on the peninsula, with at least six different species of orchids
living on its ancient branches! This is ideal for a bed and breakfast or cabina business, or could be split up into
three beautiful lots and resold individually. Opportunities like this don't come around often.

Lot El Cucurucho B14 - 8947 m2
$140,000
Delicias lot with a small steep "cucurucho" (hill). It has several large trees, including a massive pochote, and some ocean views. Nice breezes, etc. This is a good area to build a house at what is still an affordable price, yet just a few minutes to Montezuma and the beach. It's amazing that this one hasn't sold yet since everyone who sees it loves it. Titled.
