“While Klein maintains that the current real estate boom is not as spectacular as the one that took place before the global economic slowdown, private and commercial real estate in Costa Rica nonetheless remains a hot commodity. The key is to time one’s purchase precisely and to snap up available land or property while prices are still favorable. Interested investors can enjoy a wide range of choices when it comes to prime properties along the Caribbean and Pacific coastlines.
Property buyers are also advised to do business with reputable Costa Rica real estate agents who know the lay of the land and either originate from or have lived in the country for quite some time. Experts from trusted firms like Dominical Real Estate can offer interested investors access to a convenient Multiple Listing Service that lets them search for available residential, commercial, or ranch properties.”

People thinking of buying real estate often don’t look beyond the borders of their own country. However, countries like Costa Rica have become a popular destination for many investors from around the globe, who buy homes in these countries to enjoy the wonderful weather and affordable cost of living. If you’re thinking about moving to Costa Rica, here are a few prime locations you can consider:
Dominical and Tamarindo
Surfing is one of the world’s most popular sports, and Costa Rica’s Dominical has become a haven for this sport. Dominical boasts of beaches with year-round large waves that make it a must-go destination for surfers from different countries. Tamarindo in the North Pacific coast is also a popular surfing mecca, with such attractions as the Playa Flamingo and the Playa Langosta.
The Central Valley
It’s no surprise that many retirees pack their bags and head to Costa Rica’s Central Valley. Who wouldn’t enjoy spring-like weather throughout the year? Central Valley’s location also ensures ample entertainment in your golden years — jazz clubs, opera houses and shopping centers, among others, guarantee good times for those who wish to fully enjoy retirement age.
The Southern Zone
The beaches and fascinating urban living are not the only attractions of Costa Rica. Its Southern Zone is a dream come true for nature lovers as well. The area’s flora and fauna are remarkably rich, and the National Geographic has said that 5% of the world’s biodiversity can be found there.

The answer to this question depends on your definition of “best”. While it is true that Costa Rica has plenty of beachside properties for sale, you should know that single-unit houses and luxury homes away from the beach are also quite popular in the country. You basically just have to consider the geography and local culture, and to know where to look if you want to find the “best” place for you.
Many people would probably consider living in San Jose from the get-go simply because the country’s capital city is where you can find residential properties of all shapes and sizes. Barrio Escalante is known as the city’s historic district with an active nightlife; while Los Yoses is a relatively quiet neighborhood. San Isidro, which is the country’s second largest city, is known for its affordable housing, adorned with a backwoods, rural ambiance. It is also a place with a considerable population of foreigners, primarily enamored by San Isidro’s mountains and comfortable “microclimate”.
Those looking for vacation homes near the beaches obviously should begin their search in the coastal communities like Dominical. Jaco Beach is well-known for its surfing scene, casinos, and wonderful restaurants. Montezuma, on the other hand, is a mecca for beach-goers and travelers who wish to experience captivating waterfalls and exotic wildlife.

Costa Rica is probably one of the most beautiful places in the world. It has miles upon miles of gorgeous beaches that surfers around the world flock to. The country also works hard to preserve its natural resources like its fora- and fauna-rich rainforests.
It’s not surprising that scores of people vacation in Costa Rica to experience its beauty first hand. Dominical, one of the most popular area for visitors, offers many attractions. For the water-loving tourist, kayaking, white-water rafting, fishing, snorkeling and whale watching tours will prove to be exciting activities. After drying themselves off, tourists can then do bird watching, waterfall exploration and hiking in the lush forests around Dominical. Of course, no trip to Costa Rica is complete without sampling local dishes like black bean soup and hearts of palm salad.
With all the beauty and excitement Costa Rica offers, many investors are buying real estate properties in the country. Commercial properties can be bought to establish restaurants, bars, hotels, resorts, ranches or farms. The standard of living is also surprisingly affordable compared to countries like the U.S.A. In fact, a mere $2000 will go a long way in Costa Rica, prompting many Americans to buy homes in the country and settle there. What’s more, property taxes are also much lower compared to other countries.

“The massive recession in 2009 devastated the finances of many people of many countries, including those from the U.S. Between dwindling savings and an economy in recovery, many are feeling the need to reevaluate their retirement plans. Unfortunately, most are discovering that they cannot afford to retire in the USA.
So what to do? Where to live? Purchasing real estate for sale in Costa Rica may be the solution. AARP, Inc., formerly the American Association of Retired Persons, explains why:
Costa Rica is where you go to live the lush life. It is lush with nature—misty rain forests, extraordinary wildlife, and fabulous beaches—as well as such comforting amenities as malls, supermarkets, restaurants, museums, and social clubs. U.S. retirees have flocked here for years, drawn by its mild climate, its prosperity (relative to other Central American republics), its literacy rate, its health care, and, significantly, its stable government—with no army. Another plus: Costa Rica’s commitm
