Costa Rica Emerging Market of Real Estate

Time has shown that Costa Rica is a world class tourist and residential destination. The beaches, rivers, trails and volcanoes, among others, keep surprising and attracting visitors, who see this country as a place to just visit more than once in a lifetime. This has generated an important emerging market of Real Estate, mainly at the beach, where recreational, adventure or sophisticated tourists become decided investors.


Good levels of appreciation and profitability of rental programs for owners has developed a market of second houses, basically North Americans and recently also appreciated by Europeans, influenced by the yet rational purchasing cost when comparing to their countries of origin, the social and economic stability, academic training, natural and scenic beauty, temperature and climatic conditions throughout the year.


Even if it's true that the average tourist remains I I days in Costa Rica, visiting 4 or 5 different areas in that period, there are some favorite spots for the purchase of second houses, where it's easy to identify beach locations with development and growing levels of construction, such as Tamarindo in the North Pacific, a beach town by definition, very well-liked because of the variety of services offered, the practice of surf and other water sports, the diversity of restaurants and the attractive night life rendered to inhabitants and visitors; and on the Central Pacific we find Jacó Beach, only 2 hours from the capital; it has experienced an exponential increase in its indexes of construction mainly, the last two years.

Some of the facilities buyers look for are: transport means and international airports, in a vicinity of 20 minutes or less by car to supermarkets, restaurants, drugstores and other basic services, as well as the available infrastructure at the point of purchase. Timely advice from a serious Realtor Agency is important, so investors are protected when acquiring a safe buy, with adequate quality standards for the targeted market; basically, that the value paid for the real property negotiated is at a convenient market level.

For this, it's possible to assess prices of "equivalent" projects, as well as verifying the background of developers and other companies backing the final product. These premises established, it will be possible to visualize the Real Estate market in Costa Rica, mainly on the Pacific Coast, which keeps growing sturdily, moved by a steady demand and the continuous renewal of buyers searching to call this exotic country "home".
