I getting different fealings about tours by this man – some peple not like him much and some yes.
Some peple tell me he make big $$$ selling real state but he say no charge commishuns.
Please tell me, he is good for tours or no? he make commisshuns yes/no?
I can’t offer an opinion about Mr. Howard’s tours; however, last year I took George Lundquist’s tour of the Central Valley for those thinking of moving here, and I can endorse it without reservation. You can Google search “George Lundquist” and find his website. George tells me he’s just obtained a much more accommodating bus, and I think I know that his price has actually come down a little.
I know George well and like him a lot… His website is at http://www.costaricearetireonss.com and he boasts of offering tours for the “non-rich.”
Too many people believe that Costa Rica is “expensive” but it’s as expensive as you want it to be. You don’t need to buy a $500K home to be comfortable and George built his lovely home for about $100K if I remember rightly and he’ll tell you that he’s never been happier.
If you ‘search’ for George Lundquist on this site, you’ll see a few articles written by him and see the new home that he has for sale.

WeLoveCostaRica.comMy house is on George’s tour! It’s another perfect example of what you can do for a lot less than $100,000!
It was all an accident, I swear. He brought his tour group to Angel Valley Farm and took them up to see Jose’s house. The next thing I knew they were touring my house and I was giving a spiel about how to build for little money! Then he asked if he could just put the house on his tour so I said yes. You’re welcome anytime when I get down there, which I hope is soon.
Maravilla,
Is George going to post some pictures of your house on his webshots page? I would love to see it! I have been faithfully reading Andrew’s blog and also the one by JustJen whose family just recently moved to the San Ramon area. It looks like everyone at some point in time have stayed at Angel Valley B&B. All those blogs and pictures are what keep me going till we come down in Oct.(Hopefully you will be there)! We are going to meet with both Ben and Jose when we are there. We will be looking at Ben’s Rio de Jesus property and at Jose’s Butterfly Dance. (Both were a little lower elevation that we are looking for) Good luck on selling that house. We have both of our rental properties up for sale and the market is very SLOW here as well!
DebbieThank you, very intersting but this man make money when people on his tours buy real state yes?
I ask becase Howard say no on his site but many people I speak at say yes definitaly he make big commishuns?
And if he IS making a commission, it isn’t very much. George told me he doesn’t make one though, so who knows? Bottomline is that you can’t force someone to buy property they don’t like.
James,
The link is http://www.travelblog.org, as I went into it just now the site seems to be down. But, you can seach several blogs from different areas of CR. The 2 that I mentioned are both from the San Ramon area. I have seen Tim’s and yes it does have a lot of info.
DebbieThanks Debbie, I did manage to get into the travel blog site using http://travelblog.com/ I believe this is the same site you posted above.
James.James, that isnt the correct one. It is .org and not .com. Try this I jusy got in http://www.travelblog.org/Central-America-Caribbean/Costa-Rica, but ther is still a problem with the site today.
Debbie
