Why Here? Why Now?
We believe that Costa Rica Central Pacific beach real estate property offers the best opportunities to invest, enjoy and retire to in Central America, possibly the world!
v  Costa Rica is number two for Latin America's Best Countries according to Newsweek; see the Sept 1, 2010 article on our news page!
This area of Costa Rica has the best beach weather, year-round incredible beauty, and proximity to more local services and activities than any other Costa Rica beach community; plus now we are only a little more than one hour away from San Jose!
100% titled, fee simple beachfront property is more common in this Central Pacific region than anywhere else along the Costa Rica pacific coast. We have selected the best properties to show you that will save you money and your time-especially while you are on vacation.
We abide by the U.S. National Association of Realtors Code of Ethics and we are members of Costa Rica's Real Estate Board, the CRGAR.
Our modern office, is conveniently located in the heart of Jaco, on main street above the TCBY and steps away from a Bank, and Jaco's best Sushi.
The real estate market has changed dramatically over the past couple of years.
For buyers now, the timing is perfect!
The opening of the new highway to San Jose has cut the drive time to a little more than one hour, further increasing the interest level for Central Pacific Costa Rica real estate and investments. Walk on the beach in the morning, and go to a 3-D IMAX movie at night in Escazu!
We act as "buyers' agents" if you are looking for...
Deals and bargains in Costa Rica beach property from Jaco discounted beach condos-homes-lots-development and commercial properties to Los Suenos fine homes, villas and luxury properties.
A Costa Rica beachfront active "Baby Boomers" retirement community offering homes, villas, luxury condos or oceanview lots at great prices.
Costa Rica beachfront land or oceanview or oceanside lots for sale in the Central Pacific coast area, where you can build now or retire to in the future.
Commercial & business listings such as Costa Rica Jaco beach area hotels, restaurants, bars or tourist businesses for sale.
Costa Rica investments like Central Pacific development properties to hold or subdivide; or farms such as palm oil farms, shrimp farms, tilapia farms or oil palm plantations offering future profit and biofuel opportunities.
Our selected Costa Rica beach listings extend from 30 minutes north of Jaco Beach and includes real estate in Playa Herradura-Los Suenos-Punta Leona-Tarcoles-Bijagual; and to one hour south of Jaco which includes: Playa Hermosa beach/Jaco-Esterillos Oeste beach-Esterillos Este beach-Playa Bejuco-Parrita-Manuel Antonio/Quepos; all in the province of Puntarenas.
The Costa Rica Central Pacific Jaco area real estate market "boom" started January 2006 and still remains the most popular CR beach area due to:
1.The continued success of the luxurious Los Suenos Marriott Marina & Golf Resort, where their high end condos and homes set the standard for gated beachfront communities.
2. The availability of more than 700 fee-simple 100% fully titled Jaco-Playa Hermosa beach front condos, homes, villas & ocean view lots-cheaper and so much safer than Mexico!
3. The year-round tropical lush green beauty of the Jaco beach area with the best climate enjoyed along the entire Central American Pacific coast! No hurricanes, no tornados, no tsunamis!
4. The new highway from San Jose to the Jaco area has opened and the travel time is now ONE hour plus to the popular western suburbs of San Jose (Santa Ana-Escazu areas with IMAX, Cima Hospital, the biggest mall in Central America, and Priceclub!). This should "guarantee" our properties to appreciate in value faster than other areas.
4. Jaco Beach visitors are astounded at the positive changes over the past few years: beautiful new roads, exciting beachfront rentals, more police, shops & international restaurants, cleaner beaches, more entertainment options with our new 4plex movie and Jaco Conference Center, plus smarter-better looking people like you!
5. Continual International Eco Tourism & Other Awards & Honors:

Don't forget to click on our Virtual Tour tab located on the left hand side of each listing and take advantage of the enlargement feature.
Bank rate is around 505 colones for $1 so that
1000 colones bill is worth about $2.00.
I posted new news in our
Costa Rica news section, including the
fact that Costa Rica has received than $1.5 billion in foreign direct investment, up 45% from 1 year ago.That is outstanding!
After 2 trips to the Southern Zone of Costa Rica, please note that we are big fans of Costa Rica palm oil farms for sale.By using the land from old banana plantations oil palm farms make the most sense for
those wanting to diversify their portfolios and invest in agricultural commodities.
Call us for details as we found the best palm oil farms for sale, and our agent
Junior Diaz, is probably the only CR realtor with experience in maintaining
an oil palm farm plantation.
I am thrilled to announce that the long awaited Jaco Cinema Complex has opened and it´s a
wonderful experience for the entire family.
Imagine big hot dogs with cheese for $2.20
and fresh caramel popcorn for $2.00, chairs
that rock back and forth, and a chilling A/C.
Admission is 2000 ($4) for most movies but
3-D cost $7 for adults. Located behind the KFC
UPSTAIRS, in the back. Enjoy!
I keep mentioning to people that have not been to Jaco in several years that it is
"the new Jaco."
Some think we still have a main street that is all gravel, not knowing that all
of Jaco's major roads are paved. The town has really cleaned up, and we have the Chamber of Commerce
(Cenpac) to thank for that!
I posted an excellent article from the Huffington Post as to why Costa Rica tourism, interest, & popularity shall
continue for many years! See our news page, Jan. 22, 2011 for this opinion I value.
Can you drink the water in Jaco? The water board of Jaco, the AyA has stated it is 100% drinkable!
My monthly tests concur with their findings.....
I am now in my 18th year of living in Costa Rica, and I still love it. The weather here is fantastic almost year round, the people are friendly, it is possible to live cheaply, and there are lots of ways to keep busy and be socially responsible.
Forget Mexico!
Look at the article I posted on our news
Sept. 1, 2010.
It seems like everyday the news media has
a negative story about violence in Mexico.
Why are people still considering that country
as a retirement or vacation destination?
In Costa Rica you can get 100% titled beachfront for less, and you can still buy Coronas, Tecate, pico de gallo, (mistakenly referred to here as chimichurri!), Kahlua & blue agave tequila.
Yes I will agree that Mexican food is better.
However with our Central Pacific coast we don't worry about hurricanes- that affect those other vacation destinations in Mexico and
the Caribbean!
Be the "first" to receive info for that next "dream home or super deal"........
Why I love Playa Hermosa #14-during my morning stroll yesterday, I came upon
5 baby turtles struggling to get to the waves!
Of course I helped them swim away in the choppy waters of the Pacific.
HOW TO CHOOSE A REALTOR?
I realize that many of you who are coming down to Costa Rica might be nervous as to exactly who you are
dealing with and if your money is safe. Certainly there have been plenty of warnings from U.S. government agencies
and some negative press regarding projects that were never completed, deposits never refunded, or properties
granted to squatters after lengthy legal battles.
Besides you may have heard that Realtors in Costa Rica don't have to be licensed.
Who do you trust?
My suggestions for those of you looking for properties in the Costa Rica Central Pacific area:
1. On that real estate website you are looking at-do they list a land line phone number that begins with a 2 ?
(all cell phone numbers here begin with 8).
The phone numbers for the Jaco-Cental Pacific area start with either 2643, 2637, or 2778.
Would you contact a realtor in the States who lives an hour or more away from the area where you are searching?
Some websites promoting Costa Rica real estate only have 800 numbers- they may not even be in Costa Rica!
2. Does the Realtor list a physical address? Are they located in this area?
3. Do they mention they are certified by the real Costa Rican real estate boards- either the CCCBR or the CRGAR??
Yes these boards do exist and are gaining
more legal licensing power every year-and in 2011 we may even see licensing become mandatory!
4. Do they list an "About Us" page or state where they are from initially, how long they have lived in Costa Rica, and do they have legal residency status?
5. You might want to search for a date that shows when the website was last updated.
I have seen numerous Costa Rica real estate websites where properties were either never built, or long ago ceased sales, or they are
listed on google but the real estate company
no longer exists.
6. If you really have any doubts about
a realtor or a specific project-just Google the name and put "complaints against" or "lawsuits against" or "SEC violations against".
Google is great, most of the time, about uncovering swindlers with histories! I think that's all for now, I will add to this.
Sincerely, Jeff
