Find Pura Vida in Costa Rica Condos
Have you ever dreamed of living in a tropical paradise where, as the song says, “the weather is fine and the life is easy?” For many people, Costa Rica appears to be that place and Costa Rica condos are their natural target. Perhaps, along with 1.5 million or more North American and European tourists a year, you have had the chance to enjoy the beaches, surfing, big game fishing, mountains, volcanoes, rivers, and tropical forests of this beautiful country. Situated between the sandy beaches on its Pacific and Caribbean coasts, Costa Rica also boasts numerous national parks and reserves throughout the country where protected bird, mammal, and reptile species live in Eden-like environments that bring tourists back again and again.
As a result, Costa Rica real estate is a popular item for investors, especially condos as rental properties and/or for personal use, with eventual re-sale or conversion to a full time retirement home. However, perhaps you are ready to retire now and capitalize on Costa Rica’s low cost of living, and temperate tropical weather by buying a marvelous home for children, old friends and grandchildren.
If you come to Costa Rica, odds are that you will land at Juan Stanamaria International Airport just outside of San Jose on the the central plateau and nearly equidistant from the Pacific and Caribbean coasts. Known for its surf, rain forests, and Tortuguero National Park, Puerto Limon is 120 km (75 mi) to the east on the Caribbean coast. The old coffee shipping port of Puntarenas on the Pacific coast likes about 90 km to the west.
You can stop at Puntarenas or veer off to the Pan-American Highway and head northeast to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve for long walks on comfortable trails and incredible views, but a guided Canopy Tour of this rainforest is a must. On the other hand, you can go northwest to the national parks near Liberia, or the beaches Tamarindo and Coco on the Gulfo di Papagayo, known for its year-round deep-sea fishing.
If you head south, you can follow the oddly shaped province of Puntarenas (“Sands Point” in Spanish) stretching along the Pacific coast to the Panamanian border. Along the way are the beaches of Jaco and Manuel Antonio National Park, the smallest but among the most popular national parks in the country. In this park, visitors can take travel paths from the amazing beaches to the rainforst and mountain terrains.
Continuing south to Rincon and Puerto Juarez on Gulfo Dolce, you will find the dense, rich green jungle of Corcovado National Park standing as an unspoiled showcase of tropical nature. Incredibly, these are still only a fraction of Costa Rica’s attractions that full or part time residents can enjoy all year.
All these towns and surrounding areas boast Costa Rica condos for sale at prices that, compared with the Northeastern and Pacific coasts of the United States, can be a bargain. Actually, the area around San Jose has a such a low cost of living that it would cost substantially more to live in a middle class suburban neighborhood in the U.S or even Canada. Besides condos in Costa Rica, the country offers other real estate investments such as time-shares, single-family homes, and even working farms. Though they are not the most expensive approach, condos in Costa Rica are likely the best investment and/or retirement realty.
With such a small country, you can live in San Jose or its suburbs and enjoy the amenities and culture of the modern city and still have easy access to the rest of the country. In the suburbs of San Jose, $90,000 or less can buy a very nice condo. However, if you opt for Costa Rica beachfront property or a mountain retreat, these properties are still available for much less than similar, choice properties in North America. Coastal properties can cost less than $250,000 and Costa Rica beachfront property will start at under $400,000.
The residency requirements have no onerous restrictions with proofs of income minimal and the status cards easily renewable every two years. Costa Rica does not tax foreign residents on income earned outside of the country and most importantly the Costa Ricans, or Ticos, are friendly and welcoming to foreigners.
