quepos has full hospital, jaco has clinics as does parrita 20 minutes to the south east.crltdMemberdear dad,
as a developer here in costa rica and on the centralpacific coast in particualr i commented on your p[ast post regarding what was basically your opinion of the situation. while your thoughts were rooted in actual happenings the truth is that all of the world has suffered from the world economic crisis and any country that ties itself to the dollar is suffering because of it.
i know that the costa esterillos property was purchased from my crditor and to my knowledge they have been forthcoming wnd true with their payments to him. perhaps this is what lead to the irrpair that the comminity was suffering and not constructing the beach clubin any case, good luck and i hope the crisis ends soon so all of us can continue our plans.
sincerely,

crltdJanuary 8, 2011 at 7:47 pm in reply to: What is the maximum size dwelling allowed in CR without requiring a building permit? #166899crltdMemberthe size of the building depends on the classification of the segregation–urbanization, co-derecho or concession and it can vary from municipality to municipality.
i think scott is right on the 50 meters national law and it used to be at 70 meters but was changed in 2006.
the real regulation i look at is how large can i build with only needing permits from the municipalidad.
you can build up to 200 square meters in the canton of parrita with no need to get the permits from invu or salud which are notoriously the most difficult permits to obtain.
even if you are going 500 square feet remember that we are in a earthquake zone and no sense in cutting corners by forgoing the permit process.
have any of you ever read “the legal guide to costa rica” by roger petersen?
it is super helpful and it was my bible when i began my development company here.

renting is an option but many times the owners of the house want the leaser to vacate the property when they visit.
this occurred with my long term rentals and i really is a pain.
