Costa Rica Real Estate by Prime Sites Costa Rica

Escape to Costa Rica Today!  Why not?  Don't you ever get tired of the daily negative press and political non-sense of the USA, Canada, the UK and Europe?  It seems that everyday in those regions there is a new crisis that requires you to give up more of your money in increased taxes along with a loss of personal freedom.  Really, don't you ever just get tired of the daily stress?  Wouldn't it be nice to have little or no stress in your life!

In Costa Rica, we say, "Pura Vida" or Pure Life.  There are no yellow or red terror alerts.  Big Brother is Not Watching. We have no off-shore oil wells leaking.  We don't have cameras on every street corner.  We have no food police. You can use salt on your food and eat whatever you wish. Our housing prices are not falling off a cliff.  Food is fresh and inexpensive.  Medical services are first rate and 50% cheaper than in the USA.

Most of our medical professionals have attended USA medical schools and completed their residencies in North America.  You benefit from excellent medical care at a fraction of the cost.  If you live here, you can purchase medical insurance for less than $100 per month.  What's not to like?

The cost of renting a home or condo in Costa Rica ranges from $500 per month to $2000 per month, depending upon your lifestyle needs.  Generally resort properties are more and rent by the week.  See  Vacation Rentals for offerings.  Of course, if you shop around you can find great deals in beach resorts if you lease for one year or more.

Costa Rica offers a tremendous variety of properties for sale.  They range from beachfront condos and villas, to farms and mountain estates.  If you wish to build your own home, construction costs will range from $50 per square foot for construction to well over $100 per square foot depending upon what you design, etc.  Land costs vary depending upon location. Resort locations are, by their nature, always more expensive.

Other benefits of Costa Rica living include Maid Service for $1.75 – $2.50 per hour.  Food is fresh from the farm.  Fruit is locally grown and ready to eat.  It is not picked green and ripened in transport.  You will actually be able to taste real fruit and veggies from the farm to you the same day.

Fish!  We have the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean.  Costa Rica has some of the best fishing resources in the world.  Travel to either coast and experience the taste of fresh fish from the boat to your table.

Beaches, mountains, rivers, forests; we have them all.  Of course, our roadways and bridges need work.  Progress is being made. 

Costa Rica can be "Just another day in Paradise" for those who plan ahead.   It is the Switzerland of Central American. It is business investment and franchise development friendly.   You can live on the beach on the Pacific Ocean or the Caribbean or in the mountains at over 5,500 feet above sea level.

Costa Rica is the safest, most politically stable  and attractive country in Central America for living, business and  franchise  development.  It has a population of more than 4,500,000 persons and a large North American and European  community. 

Military forces were abolished on December 1, 1948, by President José Figueres Ferrer. In 1949, the abolition of the military was written into  Article 12 of the Costa Rican Constitution.  Since then no administration has come to power by force of arms. Costa Rica has avoided the despotic dictatorships, frequent military coups and internal turmoil that have plagued other countries in Central America.
