  2. HI.
    PLEASE ASK THE OWNER IF HE WOULD TAKE $140k FOR THE PROPERTY AND THIS SELLING PRICE INCLUDES ALL CLOSING COSTS! THANKS, GOD BLESS, YOUR PARTNER FOR PROGRESS, CHRIS GILL

  7. Very interested, need to know more about buying process. Down payment, closing costs and also proximity to airport. Thanks

    • In Costa Rica there aren’t any restrictions on property ownership, you buy
      just with your passport.

      Process is pretty simple. As the first step there is Sale&Purchases
      Agreement which sets all details of transaction, including time allowed
      for property inspection/due duligence and a date of closing. This
      Agreement can be signed even overseas and emailed. At Sale&Purchase
      Agreement signing 10% deposit is paid to an escrow (international escrow
      agencies such as Stewart Title are present in CR). For sale closing both
      the seller and buyer meet in person by an Costa Rican notary (most of them
      speak English), or right in the escrow company office, Deed is signed,
      money paid (usually check)and key hand over to the new owner.

      Sometimes when people want to proceed fast they skip everything, just meet
      in a bank, together with the notary and Deed is signed and money paid
      right at the spot.

      Closing costs is about 4% and is usually shared equally between the buyer and the seller.

      Either way, we can arrange everything necessary and guide you through the
      process. Or can recommend a lawyer who arranges for you.

      Liberia Intl.Airport is less than 2 hours away.

      • SO you don’t have to start a corporation to purchase this home and get utilities turned on? From other agents I have spoken with, that’s the only way to get utilities fund on in CR. THANK YOU.

        • Utilities are turned on already. After you buy you just inform utility companies you are the new owner.
          Neither you need a corporation. Corporation is an option, but you can certainly buy as a physical person as well.

    • Water $11 per month, flat rate, even if you build the pool it will be the same $11. Electricity about $30/month. Annual property tax 0,25%.

  42. Hi! Is this house still available or available again? I’ll be in CR beginning December. If it’s still available till then and the title is clean I’ can offer 90K without financing!

    Dani

  44. I am VERY MUCH interested in looking at this property. I did call you about it on the 30th of June. In our conversation you said it was still available. I am looking at flights from Denver to Costa Rica either on around July 27th. Also, if this is not something that I would like I still want to see other real estate around the same price range if possible. Thank you for you time and prompt reply in advance!

  46. I’ve been watching this property for several months. If it is genuinely for sale and you are ready to get it sold, I’m prepared to do something, but I don’t want to waste any time, you’ve had dozens of inquiries and I can’t understand why it has not sold. Again, if it is for sale now and a deal can be made, I am ready to proceed. Email me please.
