At this point we will start the process of filtering through as many properties as it takes to find you the perfect fit. When you arrive there will be a prescreened list of properties ready for you to see with us. Prior to arrival you will have been well versed by your attorney-notary public as to the legalites involved in your purchase. You may even decide to start a CR corporate entity for title holding purposes prior to your arrival here in paradise. Also check into any international tax estate planning with your CPA. 

 

2) Once an appropriate property has been found and negotiated a preliminary title search will ensue.

4) Identify the escrow holder for holding and managing all deposits and earnest moneys related to the transaction. Seek an Insurance agent from INS (Instituto Nacional de Seguros) and start the process of insuring your property once it becomes yours. Also check out utility providers for all your needs. In the case of a condo purchase, start looking for fellow residents for any HOA-management concerns. Should you elect to rent your unit out in your absence, consult at least three qualified property management companies
