More than two decades ago when I was working on Wall Street, trading on insider information might have made me a lot of money but, it would also have landed me in prison because trading on insider information is strictly illegal.

But with Costa Rica real estate, with the right connections, you can make serious money with insider information and it’s 100% legal!

Think of me as your source for the HOT IPO type information about Costa Rica real estate investment. You remember those days? When you had to be a big and active investor to get in on those hot IPOs?

If you were a small investor, you would have been lucky to get 100 shares of a hot IPO deal and even then you would have had to beg your broker for it…

But, when your stock broker called you and said that he had 2,000 shares of stock symbol ‘BUCKS’ priced at $30 that was heavily oversubscribed, going public tomorrow and his experienced trader reckoned that it should start trading between $58-$65 and he wanted you to allocate those 3,000 shares to your account because you were such an important client, you knew then that you were considered a serious investor.

Anyone Can See The Growth.

With real estate anywhere, anyone can clearly see where the real estate growth is happening. Anyone can see that real estate development is moving more in one direction than another and, just about anyone can capitalize on that but it’s…

The Real Estate Insiders Who Make the Big Money

The very serious money made in Costa Rica real estate is made by the insiders who know what is happening sometimes years in advance and there are very few real estate agents that have this kind of information.

If you know that one of the ‘TheBestCostaRicaRealEstateDevelopers’ in the country is going to build a new luxury condominium project in a specific area that is beautiful but, not yet one of the ‘hot’ spots, you know that as soon as an established developer starts building there, others normally follow.

• What happens when it’s announced that a new luxury hotel is going to be built in a specific area where you own real estate?
• What normally happens when top notch Costa Rica real estate developers move in and start gentrifying an area? Where you own real estate?

Real Estate Prices Go Higher and You Make Money.

Thankfully with the publication of my book, How To Buy Costa Rica Real Estate Without Losing Your Camisa, and the powerful Costa Rica real estate connections we have developed over the past thirteen years, in certain areas, we are now in the fortunate position to know:

1. Who has plans to build.
2. Where they plan on building
3. When they plan on building.
4. What they plan to build

A few of the biggest and best real estate developers in Costa Rica are asking me to help them with project design ideas, the names of their new developments, the pricing and their overall marketing strategy.

Just last week, I visited a unique new project being put together by a very experienced Costa Rica real estate developer which will be built in Santa Ana. It certainly is a place where we feel the investment potential is very, very promising and the project looks great.

Another Costa Rica developer who I first recommended about 11 years ago, was selling his brand new beach apartments for US$90,000 and asked me to visit.

After spending the day with him, I strongly encouraged him to sell their apartments for a higher price, they were leaving far too much money on the table and their prices were still incredibly competitive.

How would you have felt if you had bought a few of those brand new apartments for US$90,000 as an investment and then six weeks later, saw those same type of apartments selling for US$120,000?

Interestingly enough, they sold a lot more of them at that higher price!

The homes of a developer in Santa Ana that we featured on this were selling for 33-66% more only one year later.

These are just a couple of examples and although this information is interesting, when you put this timely information to work for you, it can make you money.

We also know quite a few people selling Costa Rica real estate that you must avoid like the plague.

Apart from scam artists, there are additional risks associated with any investment which is why we will only ever recommend high probability real estate investments with the lowest possible level of risk.

This is as simple as it sounds, we only recommend established developers with proven experience in delivering quality real estate in Costa Rica.
