Costa Rica Real Estate

Costa Rica Real Estate

Costa Rica, literally translated the Rich Coast, is rich indeed. Rich in biodiversity and culture and life. This is one of the reasons Peter Russell and Associates have established their offices in beautiful Costa Rica. Pura vida or “pure life” is the philosophy of the Costa Ricans and every inch of this breathtaking country is testimony to it.

Investing in Costa Rica real estate has been an excellent move for many of our clients. Here are a few reasons why:

• Costa Rica tops the list of The Happy Planet Index, which measures a place in terms of life expectancy, experienced well-being, and ecological footprint. Costa Rica stands unrivalled when it comes to well-being and quality of life.
• Costa Rica is a constitutional democratic republic and has one of the most stable democracies in the world.
• The people of Costa Rica, primarily its work force, is highly educated with most of the population speaking English.
• Costa Rica’s Free Trade Zones (FTZ) offer many investment and tax incentives for foreign companies.
• Costa Rica was declared the greenest country in the world in 2009 and plans to become a carbon-neutral country by 2021. 98% of Costa Rica’s electricity is generated from hydro, geothermal, solar and biomass sources.
• The availability of attractive, affordable real estate and low cost of living makes it an ideal place to settle in.
• Costa Rica has pleasant climate throughout the year, proximity to nature’s finest treats and panoramic views.
