About Rhonda and Randy in Costa Rica

In 1999 my wife and I vacationed in the Guanacaste region of Costa Rica. During the next three years we took several more trips to different areas of Costa Rica, each trip only confirming our desire to eventually move there.

Then, FINALLY , in 2002 we sold our business, sold our home and made final plans to move to Costa Rica. All of our dreams and plans were finally coming true

My wife and I had done extensive “homework” for our move (reading virtually every book written about Costa Rica and spending literally hundreds of hours researching the country’s customs and real estate on the internet.). We were prepared!

Imagine our surprise when we went to Costa Rica prepared to buy property and initiate our move and found that EVERYTHING we had learned about real estate and property was completely WRONG !

WHAT WE LEARNED:

  1. There is no formal regulated real estate industry in Costa Rica: 99% of all real estate transactions in Costa Rica take place exactly as they have for decades.
  2. Real estate presented on the internet is generally overpriced by 20-200%.
  3. Nearly all real estate transactions in Costa Rica follow a two-tier system: one price for Ticos and one price for”Gringos”.
  4. Almost all real estate is priced substantially less than nearly all “gringos” believe UNLESS they know how to work within the existing real estate system
