After reading the thread of all the people that moved to Costa Rica and want to sell their home in the USA, I ask: Whyt don’t you add a section USA homes for sale and USA homes for sale/trade for CR Property. I for one speculate in both Countrys and there are many others in the USA that read your WEBsight. There are many people in CR that are disillusioned after a few months want to sell their mistake(to them) in CR or just want to move back and buy, lease to buy, or rent. If I am selling USA Property there are many buyers that I can talk to in CR get to look them in the eye, see what kind of tenants or buyers they would be. Maybe they are willing to trade you equity and all for a home back in the Good Old USA. Readers , Scott is here to help and lets face it pay his fee or buy his books. Everyone of you should have Peterson’s Legal Guide, His Real Estate kit and books should be a part of everyone’s library; that is how he provides this “free” websight as soon as I get off I am ordering a second set for a friend. He has the experience. Make sure if you are looking at a trade you check with Scott. Don’t forget when your trade you have just moved your house from the USA to right next door. Don’t really want a second home here. If you followed Scott’s advice you 2nd home in CR will be easier to rent, sell or rise at 20% a year more… Stan Putra in Wisonsin and sometimes in Playa PalmaJanuary 20, 2007 at 2:44 pm #181194AndrewKeymasterHmmm!
Interesting idea Stan.
Can we get some feedback from our VIP Members please?
Do you really think that having a section where you could list your USA property for sale or rent on this website would be a good idea?

StanJanuary 20, 2007 at 4:34 pm #181196vegaskniteMemberI think it could be a valued addition for some members. While I have no need for myself I guess others may. I could also see it expand to short term rentals for those looking for a place to stay while visiting the US or finding a place to transition in while looking for the perfect next home for some. Heck you may even put two people together that want the best of both worlds they could share a home in both places sort of a longer term personal time share.
January 20, 2007 at 4:41 pm #181197AndrewKeymasterWe do have a classified section for rentals only but it hasn’t been too active….

January 22, 2007 at 11:40 am #181198dkt2uMemberI think a section that might be very valuable to people is an exchange board. Basically people looking to exchange their home in the US for two weeks, three weeks, etc. for someone’s home here in Costa Rica. Many that either want to, or have to travel back to the US frequently could incorporate a vacation perhaps to a section of the country they have never been and people either vacationing down here or coming down to investigate the possibility of moving here have the option to exchange their home with someone here. The savings on lodging doing this is tremendous. Not everyone is comfortable with something like this, but it is done quite often. Just a thought.
January 26, 2007 at 6:25 pm #181199ggMemberExcellent idea! Most USA homeowners who are trying to sell need all the exposure they can find. Also, the exhcange concept sounds like a good idea for those who are travelling back frequently and would like to visit a different part of the US. I think the trade/exchange idea may get a lot of use. Thanks for the open mind, Scott.
