SIMPLE AND TRANSPARENT
Keeping things simple and transparent is a great principle to live by and to do business with. It's even better when you have a team of experts that share those same values.
Start with honest and unselfish principles and organically only work with those for whom you share common values: I was so fortunate to find an expert engineer/inspector of all things construction water and mineral rights,(Eliza) as well as an independent real estate attorney to oversee the buyer's side of the transaction (Marcela) and you have all the ingredients for a smooth purchase. In addition the very next day, I meet the hardest working listing agent in all of Costa Rica, Lana Taal, with her vast network of contacts, engineers, architects and property owners. We are always looking for investors, joint venture opportunists who share our values and are passionate about Costa Rica.
Transparency and service in real estate means doing our best for both sides of each transaction and that means clear communication and clear expectations. Real estate can be a challenging experience in any country and that difficulty can seem even more confusing when purchasing in another country. InLovewithCostaRica.com was created to provide the solution for safely purchasing property in Costa Rica, for both the seller and buyer.
Costa Rica does not have an official multiple listing service but there is a legal process for real estate transactions for everyone, including noncitizens. For that legal expertise, we have two partners with impeccable credentials, Marcela and Eliza.
My remarkable fortune in connecting with these two talented professionals, who work in both the U.S. and Costa Rica, is now your remarkable fortune for purchasing Costa Rican property.
Costa Rica offers most of the same essentials and pleasures we are used to in the U.S. There are Walmarts, Starbucks and plenty of gas stations … just not one on every corner, but that is part of what makes Costa Rica so special. It's natural and raw, yet refined and cultured. Cell service is extremely good and reliable. Roads are excellent, although most in rural areas are two-lane and can be slow sometimes. On a rural road, you may pass an expensive luxury car or a man on a horse, which is another example of the charm of this country. And mentioning driving — utilizing the Waze app, you can't get lost, whether driving to the far reaches of Montverde or in downtown, congested San José. Do I sound like I love this place?
Living in Costa Rica, as beautiful and peaceful as it is, is not for everyone. But as those of us who have spent any time here understand, it has its own unique gravitational pull like no other country in the world. If we can be of service, including immigration/residency assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us via What'sApp or our contact page.
