I was getting ready to have my 2400 square meter property in Mollejones (14 miles south of San Isidro de el General) re-surveyed into 800 and 1600 sq meter plots in order to sell the building site on the 1600 sq meter front of the land which is on a public road but a neighbor told me that there was a new law in Costa Rica which stated that you cannot divide a hectarea (10,000 sq meters) into smaller plots.
Does anyone know more about this law?
There is no general zoning law which exists in Costa Rica, which restricts what you are attempting to do with your property. Each Municipality has its own zoning restrictions which respect to property use and lot sizes, and must be consulted accordingly. The only general restriction on lot sizes applies to property zoned as farmland, which has a retriction of a minimum lot size of 5000 square meters (one-half hectare), unless otherwise provided for in a Municipal Zoning Plan.
