CRDG believes that an investment you make in a CRDG property is one that you can make with confidence. We suggest you compare the environment and costs of CRDG properties in Costa Rica to other real estate land investments on the Pacific and specifically, Mexico, Hawaii or the Caribbean. We think you will come to agree-whether you buy to enjoy a vacation retreat, build your dream home now, or plan to build later on, the facts suggest your investment will gain value.

 

Consider the following general points as you explore buying in Costa Rica.

10 REASONS TO INVEST IN COSTA RICA

1. Costa Rican real estate is just beginning to boom. Unlike Florida, Nevada, California and other North American markets that already may have burned out, the market in Costa Rica is beginning to sizzle. Often available properties can appreciate 3 or 4 times before reaching the price of comparable property values in Florida and California, and even at that they are still well below vacation destinations in Hawaii, Mexico and the Caribbean.
2. Vacation Adventures, Activities and Tours. Activities include swimming, surfing, sunning, horseback riding, rafting, sport fishing (some of the best in the world); golfing, hiking, biking, casino gambling, dancing & night life; tours and adventures to volcanoes, cloud forests, mountains, rain forests, and jungles; ATV, horse back and zip line canopy adventure tours; world class bird and butterfly watching; wildlife viewing; spa excursions; exploring national and state parks; and much more. Seventy-four percent of first-time visitors say they are returning in one year to enjoy the activities.
3. Great locations. Easy arrival. Mild weather. Easily accessible from almost anywhere in the States and Canada, Costa Rica is located in Central America and is served by major U.S. airlines including United, Continental, American, Delta, Northwest, USAir, and others. Year-round temperatures average in the 80's (27 C) to a max in the low 90's (33 C) with very pleasant nights and gentle ocean breezes.
4. Peaceful and Civilized. Costa Rica’s welcoming culture is both friendly and affordable for Americans, Canadians and Europeans who want to invest and own here. The country has a long history of good relations with its North American neighbors and is a peaceful, democratic country offering non-residents favorable tax and ownership options.
5. Pre-Construction Discounts. CRDG buyers have already enjoyed strong returns, and each and every one of them is available to you for reference. CRDG offers pre-construction pricing direct from the developer. With this option, you can save a bundle in real estate commissions and enjoy instead, immediate appreciation.
6. Ocean View Property is Limited. Wherever prime ocean view property remains in the world, it is rapidly being developed. As it becomes scarcer, demand will increase and values will rise, making the large, beautiful, ideally located lots CRDG offers an ever more attractive proposition.
7. Low Taxes. In Costa Rica, annual property taxes are surprisingly low -- approximately $250 per $100,000. Compare that to Los Angeles, New York, Hawaii or Miami and you’ll see the Costa Rica difference!
8. Real Estate Ownership. Unlike Mexico and most of Central and South America, foreigners can own (not just lease) property through CRDG.
9. Buy Discreetly. Form a corporation (that you own) to purchase the property. Your name never appears on the title.
10. Secure Title. Title insurance is available in Costa Rica.
