Commitment: CRDG is based in Costa Rica; company principals live in Costa Rica and are closely involved with the success of each project.

Stability: Costa Rica's real estate market is funded by private capital and foreign buyers. Whereas the market in the United States is critically dependent on high leverage financing products, institutional financing and the job market, all of which have been recently decimated.

During the first six months of 2008, despite slowing US economic growth, as well as rising global food, fuel and airline prices, international arrivals to Costa Rica increased 12% over the same period last year. This statistic follows a ten year compound average growth rate in arrivals of over 9%, and there is expectation for the trend to continue.

With the expected explosion of retiring baby boomers, demand for property in Costa Rica , one of only few world "Blue Zones", is poised for long-term growth driven by lifestyle, climate and health care.

Other popular markets like Mexico are less attractive due to high prices, taxes, corruption, instability and crime.

Increase in taxes, general cost of living and health care cost in traditional retirement markets like California, Arizona and Florida make Costa Rica the standout choice in a growing movement towards being a global citizen.

Knowledge: CRDG’s professional team has solid Costa Rica expertise and works effectively with local municipalities and government regulations. The CRDG team can take you seamlessly and reliably through every step of buying and building in Costa Rica.

Community builders: CRDG’s extensive Home Owners Association and Investor Communications expertise is directed toward creating ideal communities and happy investors.

Community participants: CRDG team members live in Costa Rica and are actively involved in community service and municipal and government initiatives that protect the quality of life found in Costa Rica.

Commitment to Costa Rica: The founders of CRDG are committed to stewardship of Costa Rica’s resources and have organized the Costa Rica Foreign Investment Group (CRFIG). CRFIG is comprised of a select group of leading Costa Rica developers. This council will:

• strengthen mutual commitment and planning which supports long-term, sustainable growth in Costa Rica;
  
• seek to understand real local needs and effects of direct foreign investment in the local communities;
  
• consider and address solutions to challenges of Costa Rica’s hyper-growth development market;
  
• offer jointly considered recommendations;
  
• liaise with local municipalities and national government resources to help establish and define a path for responsible and intelligent development in Costa Rica; and
  
• build a stronger voice in national and international policies.

CRDG incorporates advanced construction standards and respectful stewardship of the land to protect and enhance the value— and beauty of the development for everyone involved.
