Hello everybody,
where do I find some non gringo real estate sites or postings for the Osa peninsula?Thank you for your input and help
Karl
Depends what you mean by “non-gringo” and “postings”
We have plenty of people other than Americans on this site

Scott,
maybe bad choice of words on my side……I’m looking for real estate websites, in Spanish, for locals and not just for us “gringos”, but for the south pacific/Osa area.Thanks,
Karl
I’m not familar with any Spanish real estate websites for that area – It is a fairly remote and very sparsely populated area and from what I understand, it’s more of a ‘face to face’ market than one that you’ll find on the interent

Try La Nación, the largest newspaper in CR. Look under “económicos” (classified ads). You might have to sign up for access, but it’s free.
Frankly, I’m not sure why people are so interested in Osa. To say it is HOT and HUMID is an understatement. If you visit, seal your cloths in plastic until you wear it to keep mushrooms from growing.
Of course, I’m from Wisconsin, so I turn into a puddle whenever the sun comes out…
I recently purchased in the South Pacific, just south of Dominical and used Coldwell Banker based in Dominical (I love the heat). Apart from Ticos selling their properties privately (usually just land), there are some real estate companies in San Isidro that are local. You may also want to check out the following website that has real estate links, however can’t guarantee there isn’t gringo involvement. I did look at the North end of the OSA and it is relatively undeveloped and any land that I looked at was very basic i.e. no infrastructure. I think there are still a few years before we see development really take off in the deep south.

Thanks for your info,
I just loved the cost highway south of Dominical, it’s really nicely designed and in unbelievable good condition – sure different than anything in the Osa. We just got offered some land from a private party, might not have a title, so I’m not sure if I want to go through with it. I have heard some wild stories about sudden late claims on untitled property.Karl
Most attorneys would tell you not to touch property that’s not titled or, correctly titled. You could be messing about with attorneys for the next ten years trying to clear that up…
There’s plenty of land for sale in Costa Rica.
