Remote purchase

Buy without traveling

Six steps to buy safely in Costa Rica from wherever you live.

1

Choose with real information

Full technical sheet, costs, drone photos and a live video tour with Pablo.

2

Offer and option agreement

We negotiate for you and sign an option-to-purchase agreement that reserves the property.

3

Deposit into escrow

Your deposit goes to a regulated escrow company, never to the seller or to us, until closing.

4

Due diligence

Our partner lawyer checks the survey plan, title, liens, water letter, zoning and maritime zone.

5

Power of attorney

You sign a special power of attorney at a Costa Rican consulate or with an apostilled notary, so a representative can sign for you.

6

Closing and registration

The notary signs the transfer deed, escrow releases the funds and the property is registered in your name (or your company’s).

Questions buyers ask

Can a foreigner own property in Costa Rica?

Yes. Foreigners have the same ownership rights as Costa Ricans on titled land. Only maritime-zone concessions have limits.

How long does closing take?

Usually 30 to 60 days from the signed option, depending on due diligence and financing.

Do I need to travel to sign?

No. With a power of attorney and escrow you can close remotely. Many buyers visit only once the deal is closed.

Who protects my money?

A regulated escrow company holds the funds and releases them only when the title transfer is registered.
