BUYING
Whether Buying or Investing in Real Estate, it is the single most effective long term way to build and retain wealth from owning a piece of land, home or condo. I can navigate you through this process.
The Meeting Process
My home process for buying or selling a property in Costa Rica is designed to give our clients the best possible experience. I can connect with you via Zoom, WhatsApp call, email, or in person to get a better understanding of your needs and wants. Through this process I can ensure absolute professionalism while developing a business relationship with my clients very similar to the US & Canada. It also gives you an opportunity to ask questions and receive advice so you can make informed decisions that will benefit you in the long run.
Educating
Buying or selling a property in Costa Rica is an exciting process! At our company, we strive to provide the best possible experience. With my guidance, you will be able to make informed decisions that will best suit your needs and goals. My team of experts will guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that all your questions and concerns are answered thoroughly and promptly. As a foreigner, you can purchase real estate in Costa Rica without needing to be a resident. It is important, however, to work with an agent that is licensed, understands policies, legal requirements and help you do your due diligence to avoid any potential scam or potential schemes. An educated client is a successful client!
Financing
Can I get a mortgage in Costa Rica if I am not a resident? Yes, I can help you navigate the process and put together a plan that works best for your individual needs. I have access to financial options in Costa Rica, companies and lenders that are tailored to non-residents. Whether it’s helping you understand the different loan programs available, providing guidance on the typical local closing costs – I am here every step of the way.
Searching
With my hands on approach I can help you search specifically to your needs no matter what type of property you're looking for – a beach house, mountain loft, gated golf community home or city condo. There currently isn't a platform like MLS in Costa Rica like in Canada or the US yet... although they are working it, so that is why it is so important to work with a licensed agent like me involved in the marketplace to give you the advice and confidence you need in making this investment.
Viewing your home selection
I am here to provide a valuable experience for you and make sure all your questions get answered. Now that you are excited about maybe buying, the next step is to connect with me and get started on the possibilities! My team of experts will guide you through every step of the process from researching, viewing them in person, or many like to do face-time showings once they find an area they love! Helping secure financing or setting up escrow, to making an offer and finalizing paperwork. Together we can ensure a smooth transition into your new home. I can help you make this happen.
When the magic happens
We believe that finding the right home or space is not just about numbers and measurements. It's a feeling, an emotion, something almost magical. When you step into the perfect home, you can sense it immediately - the possibilities of what this new space could become for you and your family. We understand that no two homes are alike; everyone has different needs and desires when it comes to their dream home. Whether that means having enough room for entertaining guests on the patio with a pool or living near the beach or an ocean view, we strive to help our clients find exactly what they're dreaming about. We work hard to provide them with all of the information they need to make an informed decision about their vision.
The Offer
At B&C Real Estate our mission is to provide you with the best possible experience from start to finish. My team of experienced real estate professionals are committed to providing you with the highest level of customer service and expertise in navigating through all aspects of your purchase, including Costa Rican contract law, taxes, and other associated costs. I pride myself on staying up-to-date on the latest trends in Costa Rican real estate and continuously update my knowledge so that I can offer you informed advice throughout every step of your journey.
Due Diligence
As a real estate team, we believe that due diligence is of the utmost importance when it comes to any potential purchase or sale. I am here to provide you with expert Costa Rican legal advice and guidance throughout the subject period, ensuring that all aspects of your transaction are thoroughly investigated. Whether you're buying or selling, I have access to experienced legal teams, to help you make an informed decision based on a full understanding of all relevant factors. During the subject period, the legal team be rest assured that no detail will be overlooked as we strive to ensure a secure and successful outcome for everyone involved.
Place your deposit
When the time comes to place your deposit, it is important that you do so with the utmost security and peace of mind. The legal team will set up an escrow account, with full knowledge of customer procedures, that ensures that both parties are protected throughout the transaction process. The escrow account will securely hold your deposit — usually around 10% of the agreed sale price — until all conditions of the sale have been verified and confirmed, giving you assurance that everything has gone as planned.
Legals / Closing Process
The final component of a real estate transaction whether buying or selling is the closing. My team of legal experts will ensure that the closing process for your real estate transaction is seamless. From title transfers to financing documents, we'll make sure all the details are taken care of with precision and accuracy with legal counsel. After both parties have signed closing statements and purchase deed before a Notary, references are sent to Escrow for verification in order to ensure that disbursements are made with accuracy and efficiency. This adds security and peace of mind as you complete your real estate transaction.
Odds and Ends
After subjects are removed and the offer is final I don't stop there! I make sure we go over the next steps with you to consider and oftentimes I itemize these for my clients that want it, as I know this is a very busy time trying to get ready and move forward. It just makes the whole process easier! I do what I can to eliminate the "thinking" if you will and our clients that want this love it!
