Costa Rica Investing
So Easy!
Investing in Costa Rica is incredibly easy and simple. Costa Rica has done an excellent job of making foreign investment, welcome, straight-forward, and inexpensive. Bank accounts, corporations, real estate titles, insurance, credit, financing etc., are not that complicated. Buying real estate or starting a business in Costa Rica is a snap! If you know what you are doing.
I have found personally, that starting a business in Costa Rica, is much easier and less costly than in the United States.
Open a Costa Rica Corporation
I own two corporations, one limitada, I have health insurance, eight employees, a pension, and I’m an American Citizen. Costa Rica’s investment laws are clear and contracts are binding. As an investor your property rights are protected. Investment earnings are “fungible” - investors in Costa Rica don’t need to be overly concerned about access and transferability of assets.
Costa Ricans Know Real Estate
Investing in real estate is a time-honored tradition in Costa Rica. Costa Ricans are comfortable engaging in real estate transactions. Titles can be researched and the Costa Rica National Registry keeps track of real estate transactions, restrictions, and liens.
It’s So Easy to Lose Everything
While it is easy to invest in Costa Rica, it is even easier, to lose everything. Why? There are many reasons. I discuss the dangers and what to watch out for in greater detail in my posts. The first thing you have to deal with is a long list of liars, thieves, charlatains, con-artists, schemers, criminals, and I’m just talking about the Americans.
