I spent some time with a wonderful prospective customer this week and learned something new. I love to learn and do my best to keep my ears wide open while keeping my mouth closed — novel idea.

Together we saw only two homes on her list, both were high quality. As I watched her body language in awe of the properties I kept hearing an expression that I had not heard in years. She would say, “Wow, if I did this to ‘amp-up’ the lawn….” Or, “By changing the wall, we can ‘amp-up’ the layout for more income…”

Being a guitar guy, I vividly remember plugging into my Amps and letting the music rip onstage. There is a significant correlation and usefulness in my real estate business.

Here are five (easy) ways for you to get ‘Amp’d Up to make a real estate purchase in Costa Rica:

1. Sharing Great Values in Todays market — To provide world-class service to customers, we do much better when we know your needs. Share what is on your mind and we will find the best options for you. It is my job to weed through the massive inventory and show you the best options. You will see great value using this process.



2. Experience the Great Natural Features that will become part of your life after your buy — you will quickly get amp’d-up after seeing some waterfalls, beach caves, SUP to the islands, hang with Monkeys or walk the Whales Tail beach. Taking time to see your future community is part of the buying experience — do not miss it.

3. Sharing the best resources to enable a seamless transaction — Ask more questions about attorneys, surveyors, architects, builders, and tax specialists. Go ahead, we have a thick rolodex of quality resources for you.



4. Sharing the bad, along with the good — getting real — Lets talk about “crime.” I am also not afraid to discuss the banking system, how the “mañana” syndrome may not (or may) be for your A-personality. Would you like to discuss the costs of car maintenance? Great. Lets do that while breathing in our fresh and clean air (no pollution here)

5. Sharing a story of how I got here — There is no more fun than hearing about why you are moving here or how you chose the Dominical area. Most customers will always ask about how/why I moved here. We share similar stories. Mine is fun, interesting and normally educational. You will be in my shoes one day in your not too distant future to share with others…

My customer got me so “Amp’d-Up” that I had to write about it. My intent is to show you that after 10 years, I am still Amp’d-up about living in Costa Rica and the life my family enjoys. My customer was Amp’d-up. How do I know? Here comes the email to place the offer….
