Imagine your home in a friendly community where you know your neighbors and the beach is your playground. A place known for healthy living and conservation, natural foods and abundant amenities, where you can swim in a waterfall while watching wild parrots, toucans and macaws. Where first class health care costs pennies on the dollar yet the average life expectancy is higher than the US. A community located within a few miles of the newest hospital in the country. Behold such a place, Pacific Lots of Costa Rica, on the southern Pacific coast of Costa Rica. Affordable ocean and mountain view properties as well as luxury custom home building services will turn your dreams into reality. Relax, your money will go significantly further than in the US. Enjoy a quality of life we have forgotten in the US. Step away from the stresses of daily living, traffic jams and a lack of a sense of community. Our prices are competitive with other developments yet our quality represents the "gold standard" in the region.
The developments we represent are located in the coastal villages of Ojochal, Tres Rios, and
Chontales. This is considered the southern Pacific region of Costa Rica and is located just above the Osa Peninsula. These three towns touch one another as you drive south on the Pacific Coast. This area is located about 15 miles south of Dominical and about 31 miles south of Quepos. This coastal Pacific community is in one of the few areas of Costa Rica where 6000 foot tall mountains come right down to the sea. This stunning geography provides some of the best view home sites in the country. This area of the country is also more tightly zoned and construction is limited to three stories. There are no big developments and the area has become a Luxury International Residential Community of single family homes. The area is also home to some of the most famous beaches in Costa Rica, Playa Ballena (a Marine National Park), Playa Tortuga, Playa Ventanas and Playa Pinuella.
Lots start at only 40k and all homes are custom built. Clients who have purchased home sites within any of the developments have no time limits to build nor restrictions on who can build their home. Clients can build their own home or hire any builder of their choice, however most clients use our building services to take advantage of our expertise and quality design and construction. Our homes are truly spectacular and one of the best real estate values in Costa Rica.
Our customers are mainly North Americans buying land for their future although in the past few years many are opting to build their dream home right away. Some are investors, holding real estate as a way to preserve the value of their assets as the value of the dollar continues to fall. Others are buying now for their planned retirement in the future. Some are just looking for a change of life, fed up with hectic pace in North America. Many of our clients are baby boomers looking for a lower cost retirement. We are building primary homes, rental properties, second homes and vacation homes. Demand for rentals in our area has been very strong and continues to grow as the new international airport and major highway projects are completed.

One thing to keep in mind when looking at other developments in Costa Rica is how far along they are. Ask questions like do they have all their permits in place, how many people will eventually live there and how many are living there now? There are many real estate projects in foreign retirement communities that are in their infancy. Although marketing departments can easily draw up nice plans of what their development is supposed to look like when it is completed, you are better off buying what you see, not what they tell you is coming some day. Due to the downturn in the world economy, there have been a number of real estate projects in foreign countries that have run out of steam. Many planned on future sales to pay for the completion of the project. These sales did not materialize, leaving a small group of owners to secure permits, electric, water, roads etc after the developer files for bankruptcy.
We are firmly established, debt free, have all of our infrastructure completed in nearly all of our phases, have built hundreds of homes, have over a thousand owners and don't need to show people "artists renditions" of what the development will look like some day. If a development you are considering hasn't gotten their permits, roads, water, electric, experience building homes, etc... be prepared for the potential that they may never complete what you were promised. Buy what you see. Now in our twenty first year, you can rest assured that you will not be stuck "holding the bag".
