Costa Rica at a Glance
Located in Central America, Costa Rica
is a small gem placed in between the continents of North
and South America, and the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.
This critical geographic placement, coupled with its
tender age of only 300 million years makes Costa Rica
one of the most ecologically diverse places in the world.
Its twelve climatic zones host 5% of the world's flora
and fauna, with new discoveries cataloged daily. This
enticing array of earthly splendor is enhanced more
by its long standing political stability, demilitarization,
and high standard of living. Of its four and a half
million inhabitants, over fifty thousand are welcomed
foreigners who have chosen Costa Rica for its beauty,
perfect climate, wonderful people, and affordable cost
of living in a stable society. Costa Rica is also one
of the world's top tourist destinations, drawing hundreds
of thousands of visitors annually. One has a choice
of vacationing in an all inclusive resort on a breathtaking
beach or a secluded mountain getaway and reveling in
the awesome beauty of one of Costa Rica's thirteen National
Parks. Whether observing the turtle migration in Tortugero,
or bathing in the thermal waters under Arenal Volcano,
a visit to Costa Rica guarantees an adventure for all.

| Buying Property in Costa
Rica |
|
It is no secret that very few laws and restrictions
oversee the Real Estate business in Costa
Rica. Therefore, there are some basic but
essential procedures you can follow to insure
that you obtain the best value with your Real
Estate investment, and that a successful transaction
is achieved. This includes dealing directly
with the seller. An agent should assist both
of you, communicating offers, counter offers
and terms until both parties walk away with
a satisfactory agreement.
The best and most secure way to purchaeg real estate in Costa Rica
is to assume a very active role in the entire
process. We at Green Mango S.A. take
pride in our business ethics and the service

they have negotiated the very best price and
