Lotus,
I am glad ot here that you read the article as I belive that it adresses a major pitfall that some buyers here have fallen into. It sounds like you may have some equity in your land if you only paid $30K. Most lots with similar characteristics start in the $50K to $60K range or higher. Without seeing it, I can’t give you a real appraisal. Do you want to sell it or are you just guaging your investment?
As a local realtor, I can see how you would want to make sure that your agent and attorney are not getting “kickbacks”. What I generally do is recomend a number of attorneys that I have worked with in the past that I feel do a good job. This way my clients can make a few calls and choose their own attorney, but don’t go about it blindly. We never get referal fees from attorneys: it is a conflict of interest.
Tropical Felgate may pop up often. I have talked with them a number of times. They do not have an office in Costa Rica that I know of. They are located in the U.K.
