Real estate in Costa Rica

Costa Rica's Caribbean and Pacific coasts boast long stretches of pristine beach. Inland, jungles teem with exotic wildlife... and coffee-growing highlands are lush and cool. Throw in crystal-clear lakes and waterfalls, and a few active volcanoes, and you can see why Costa Rica made such an attractive destination for more than two million tourists in 2010.

Back in the early 1980s, International Living recommended buying real estate in Costa Rica's Northern Zone. Readers who took this advice reaped big rewards. This part of Costa Rica became the No. 1 destination among foreign retirees and investors. Through the 1990s, the market boomed. Costa Rica real estate prices along the Pacific coast increased 6-, 8-, 10-fold, and more...

Today, there are three pockets of opportunity in Costa Rica. You have the chance to position yourself ahead of the Path of Progress. There's an infrastructure story playing out in the Southern Zone, where for now you can buy lots from $40,000... and one of the last forgotten stretches of Caribbean coast is about to undergo a billion dollar facelift (but today you can buy one-acre parcels from $50,000). And then there's a secret corner of Costa Rica that boasts lake property at unbeatable prices...$19,000 for a lake view lot...and local-style homes from $55,000.

Pathfinder is in the business of recommending a wide range of real estate and relocation services from developers and lawyers to real estate agents and tax specialists, to name but a few. Pathfinder requires developers to meet basic criteria before bringing them to you. However, any vetting we do on projects or professionals should not be construed as a guarantee by Pathfinder. Pathfinder is not responsible for the management or delivery of chill weekends. We bring these to you for informational purposes on behalf of our developer and broker partners. As with any other overseas trip, we advise that you purchase travel insurance. We always recommend strongly that buyers perform their own complete due diligence, use a qualified legal professional to help with real estate transactions and purchase title insurance. Should a reader decide to purchase a property from one of the developers/real estate agents Pathfinder covers, Pathfinder will receive a fee from the developer or real estate agent.
