Own a piece of Costa Rica under $250K
Titled homes and land in the zones we work every day, structured with owner financing so a foreign buyer does not need a Costa Rican bank to get in.
A quarter million still buys real Costa Rica.
This is the entry point where international buyers actually get in, with the one tool that makes it possible at this price.
Freehold title, in your name
Most inventory here is fee-simple, recorded in the national registry, the same ownership a Costa Rican holds.
The financing closes the gap
Costa Rican banks rarely lend to foreigners and US or Canadian mortgages do not cross the border. We structure a seller-paper note registered against the title, so under-$250K becomes reachable with a down payment and a plan, not a bank approval.
The real zones, not the leftovers
At this tier you are buying into Santa Teresa, Mal País, the Southern Pacific and Nicoya, surf-and-jungle communities that are still growing, not a lot nobody wanted.
Income potential, honestly assessed
Costa Rica's tourism demand makes well-placed homes candidates for rental income. We will tell you which specific listings have a real track record, and which do not.
Live listings, priced today.

Owner financing, a note you sign directly with the seller and register against the title, is how most of our international buyers actually close. On under-$250K homes it is often the difference between watching and owning.
Not a bank approval. A handshake, papered properly, and the keys.
Typically 30-50% down, agreed directly with the seller. No underwriting, no foreign-income hurdle.
The property records in your name at closing; the seller's note is registered as a lien against it.
Fixed monthly payments over an agreed term, often 0-9% interest, no Costa Rican credit history required.
From WhatsApp to escritura.
One message: ocean view or jungle, home or lot, rental goal, timeline.
Current under-$250K listings that fit, with honest pros and cons of each.
In person, or we walk the property on video while you are still abroad.
Down payment, term and rate agreed in writing with the seller.
Title records in your name. You own it.
