We are very
aware of the properties in Costa Rica real estate listed for sale by
owner. In these Costa Rica real estate transactions we
often work directly with these property owners. Also, very
important, we will represent you in checking out properties that you
may be interested in for small fee. In Costa Rica real estate
this is extremely important for you to make sure that the property is
legally registered and the property owner has the right to
sale. We also check to make sure there are no liens against
the property. We also make sure that the property conforms
with all zoning and other legal requirements of Costa Rica real
estate. We also arrange for the best legal representation
in Costa Rica. Better be safe than sorry!
For example,
did you know that there is a way of transferring properties without
paying any closing costs. We can show you how to do
this. Did you also know that you can declare your own
property value for tax purposes. This is called "valor
fiscal". It is common to pay less than $100 in property
taxes in Costa Rica. Another item, we can show you how to
limit not only your taxes but also your personal liability by placing
your property in a corporation or "sociedad anónima".
Limited Editions is not your ordinary real
estate company. In addition to the above, we consider ourselves
specialists in hotels for sale, foreclosures, houses for sale, farms or
”fincas”, homes for sale for sale by owner and tourist development
projects.
When buying real estate in a foreign country,
the prospective buyers cannot possibly be aware of the local real
estate market, the laws, customs and legal aspects that are involved in
your purchase consideration. We make sure that all properties are
legal entities and the owners have the right to sell these properties,
that they are properly registered in the "Registro Nacional" or
National Registry and that you have the best legal representation in
Costa Rica. And when that special day arrives and you move into
your special property we are here to serve you after the sale.
