I am confident that there is at least someone visiting this blog regularly, or occasionally, who has considered the idea of either investing in Costa Rica, or maybe even moving their entire lives to Costa Rica.  Actually I hear from such people from time to time, so this is not another one of my hallucinations of grandeur.  Well guess what?  Yours truly (aka, Costa Rica Guy) runs a pretty nifty real estate investigation tour.  I have tried to stay away from shameless plugs in this blog, but, hey, times are tough and a guy’s gotta do what a guy’s gotta do.  I probably don’t need to tell the intellectually gifted readers of this blog this, but you can get yosef in a world of hurt investing here without “doing your homework.”  There are graveyards littered with bodies of dead investments everywhere these days.  Usually it is the result of thinking that “tip” from a “friend” or slick marketing schtick of an unscrupulous developer looking to get in, make the big hit, and leave poor suckers like you with a lot that you need a helicopter to reach is all you need to drop a few hundreds of thousands into a piece of Costa Rican paradise.  And many actually do this without ever having even set one toe onto Costa Rican soil!  As Lily might say, “imaginase!”  Well a good way to ameliorate risk is to take my (or someone’s) real estate tour.  It is kind of like taking a working vacation.  First I have to find out what it is you are really looking to do by investing in Costa Rica. For instance, many tell me they want to operate some online business here, while living somewhere deep in the jungle, with a great ocean view of course.  Well, wouldn’t that be nice…to have high speed internet while conversing with the mono congos each morning.  Problem is, there ain’t no high speed internet in the jungle, silly!  So knowing your objectives is the first step in planning the tour.  During the tour I serve as a private guide and we will spend time in areas that I believe present opportunities that best fit your main objectives for buying in Costa Rica. I also make sure we have a lot of fun (just ask Susan and Michael Duell, who recently did my tour….in addition to great investing information, Michael learned firsthand that the best rum comes from Nicaragua!). I recently did a Squidoo Lens that lays out the dynamics of the tour.  However, like all Costa Rica vacations offered through my company, Package Costa Rica, the idea is to design and manage an experience that you go home raving about.  So everything is completely customizable to find that perfect fit that is just right for you.  If you’re interested in taking a tour, peruse the Squidoo Lens and then give Costa Rica Guy a call.
