Buying in Costa Rica..

[natasha]

I’m moving to Costa Rica.Will i be able to find an apartment for $100,000? Where in Costa Rica is the best place to live when you don’t have a car? and for how much can i buy a car? ( a cheap one)..
I think i will have to leave everything.How much will i need more or less for furniture etc?..

Thanks in advance
Natasha

First off, you should search for information on the rules of gaining residency here, if you haven’t already done so, which will explain that you cannot legally work here until you are a legal resident that will take approx 5 years. Check out http://www.arcr.net

if you’re going to live here you will need residency unless you want to leave the country every 90 days or pay a hefty fine for not leaving. it’s not just so simple to say you want to buy an apartment and then live in costa rica. i doubt even the dictator would allow someone to just move to Venezuela and set up shop without minding some rules. you might be better off renting an apartment. should there be a regime change in your own country, you may be saddled with something you can’t easily sell.

Actually if you search the forums you will find just about all your answers to your question.

Check out Miss O postings, she asked the same questions:

You should read this page, [url=http://www.costarica-embassy.org/consular/visa/no_visa2.htm]Visa info[/url] if you hope to enter Costa Rica with a passport issued by Venezuela.

Jesus Christ..do people speak English here?..should i make my questions in Spanish?..How about Portuguese?..

[costaricafinca]

If you make it into Costa Rica, I suggest you leave your attitude at home.

You have been unfriendly right from the start so please do not talk about attitude with me. You continue to give answer about things I’m not asking.
