Thank you…Seems like I have to be back in the States for a lot of this!
Thanks! I felt that HSBC was definitely the right choice.
Thank you both for your advice and for taking the time. I appreciate it.
Scott,
Thank you for your honesty. This is why I am asking these questions on the forum. I understand everything that you are saying and will proceed accordingly.
Gracias mil,
Carlos
I appreciate the quick reply. It has been a positive experience. I do know the neighborhoods and I have Tico friends who are helping me choose something as well. In terms of permanence, I would say that I am not moving back to NY in a year or two. Really, it just seems that Costa Rica is a good place to buy my first piece of real estate. It is an investment but more something that I can call mine. In terms of work. I work for an internet company based in Japan, I technically don’t work here legally. I also do not have residency. I would like to start to process. I was under the impression that it wouldn’t be too difficult to get financing considering the fact that many retirees have second homes and don’t technically have residency.
