Why Now is the Time for Real Estate Development in Costa Rica

Wednesday, October 8th, 2014


Puntarenas, Costa Rica (PRWEB) September 30, 2014

As the Costa Rica real estate and investment markets prepare for the next big boom, 2015 may represent the last chance for great values and outstanding opportunities on purchasing investment property and development land in Costa Rica. In this small and stunning Central American jewel, prime development land in the coastal regions, specifically along the Pacific, are once again on the radar with a consistently improving real estate market that is fueled by record low pricing, simply due to the basic economics of supply and demand for prime development property.

Mark Twains quote, Buy land, theyre not making any more of it holds very true in Costa Rica, a country about the size of West Virginia. From the building of a new Chinese economic zone, near the recently expanded port of Caldera on Costa Ricas Central Coast, to the newly proposed International Airport near Orotina combined with the announcement of a $ 450 million World Bank Loan to improve infrastructure countrywide, the real estate investment environment in the Central Pacific region can best be described as rich, according to Palms International Real Estate Costa Rica.

Stemming from an improving real estate market in the Americas, where the market is shifting from first to second home buyers, rising tourism in Costa Rica and foreign direct investment reaching an all-time high, there couldnt be a more opportune time to buy land in Costa Rica.

After being one of the hottest real estate markets on the planet in the mid-2000s and with the subsequent collapse of real estate values throughout the U.S., Latin America and the Caribbean, Costa Rica now has a wealth of incredible real estate values, says Amanda Jennings, of Palms International Costa Rica.

We are now seeing an increase in real estate investment and major hospitality groups from the U.S., Latin America and China are researching and purchasing development land in record numbers. The substantially lower land prices that we currently see wont be around long. Prices will soon begin to move back towards pre-recession levels over the next 12-24 months as supply tightens, adds Jennings.

In addition to the consistently improving infrastructure and an ever-growing tourism industry, Costa Rica also offers no limitations on capital funds transfers associated with an investment, regardless of the currency and there are no restrictions imposed on re-investments or on repatriation of earnings, royalties or capita making investing in Costa Rica real estate and development property even more attractive.

One beachfront development property on the Central Pacific Coast, Serenity Point, offers investors and developers a shovel-ready land tract with versatility and stunning ocean views overlooking four beaches. Its prime location is only 45-minutes from the capital city of San Jose and 15-minutes from the newly proposed International Airport, making this property unique to both hospitality and residential developers.

Besides the gentle terrain, 75% of the property has panoramic ocean views overlooking some of Costa Ricas most beautiful beaches showcasing magnificent sunsets to the west. Serenity Point also has all permits and approvals for hotels and residential development in place.

Shovel-ready beachfront projects are extremely rare in Costa Rica, as it can take many years to acquire zoning permits and environmental approvals, if you can get them at all. Serenity Point is currently permitted for 325 hotel rooms and 250 residential units as well as commercial use.

Hospitality Brands such as Oriens Hotel and Investment Agency announced plans to re-launch its PURE Hotels brand, Paradisus Resorts is building a new resort, while Wyndham Resorts is adding to their presence in Costa Rica too. These and other hotel brands are taking advantage of low real estate prices, improved infrastructure and the growing tourism industry along Costa Ricas Pacific Coast.

Most experts agree, in 2014 and 2105 Costa Ricas real estate and development market will continue to set new records until prime development land in this small Central American country becomes harder to find.

Palms International Costa Rica is a Costa Rica and U.S. based resort real estate sales and marketing company specializing in resort real estate throughout Central and Latin America. For more information about development property in Costa Rica please contact us at info(at)palmsintlcr(dot)com

Tuesday, October 7th, 2014


Georgetown, S.C. (PRWEB) July 17, 2014

Grand Estates Auction Company, the industry leader for luxury real estate auctions, announced the August 5th live auction of an elegant four-bedroom Mediterranean beach front home in the privately gated DeBordieu community. With 2,000 square feet of exterior decks, terraces and patios overlooking beautiful ocean views, the home seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor spaces and offers the perfect setting for entertaining in style or just getting away from it all. Buyers will be able to name their price on this South Carolina coastal gem at the live auction to be held on location at 2:00 p.m.

Grand Estates Auction Company homes usually close within 30 days, so one lucky buyer can be enjoying this desirable oceanfront property before Labor Day, stated Grand Estates Auction Company Director of Sales Development Stacy K. Reich. The live auction process provides fair market value in its purest and quickest form, as well as a level of transparency and expediency that the traditional listing process does not provide.

The magnificent home features four bedrooms, four full bathrooms, two half-bathrooms, a gourmet chefs kitchen featuring high-quality appliances, formal dining and living rooms, a great room, a separate office with built-in shelving, terraces, patios and balconies across the entire back of the house, as well as a deck sitting area right on the beach. Architectural design elements include 10 ceilings, hardwood floors, imported stone tiles, an elegant curved staircase with colorful stone tiles and a wrought iron balustrade, stained glass windows, floor-to-ceiling windows, French doors throughout, intricate wrought iron accents, Venetian plaster applications on the walls, custom molding, built-in bookcases, elegant chandeliers, and two fireplaces. Amenities include elevator access to all three levels of the home, heated splash pool with fountain and Jacuzzi jets, a 5-car garage, hurricane shutters and a whole-house back-up generator.

Situated between the picturesque beaches of the Atlantic Ocean and the sunlit river marshes of an extensive wildlife preserve, DeBordieu boasts an unspoiled natural setting. Integrated carefully into this peaceful setting is the DeBordieu Club, which offers an 18-hole championship golf course, 10 tennis courts, a pool, private boating and fishing access, and social activities for all ages. Historic Georgetown and Pawleys Island are just minutes away, while Charleston and Myrtle Beach are within an hours drive. The South Carolina coast offers fishing villages and antebellum mansions to explore, fine dining, quaint shops, and endless recreational activities, including numerous top-rated golf clubs within 15 minutes of the home.

Grand Estates Auction Company has an unsurpassed closing rate in the luxury residential real estate auction industry and specializes in creating comprehensive global marketing campaigns for luxury properties. There are no contingencies, no lengthy negotiations, and timelines for closing are already established. To help buyers make an informed purchase, a comprehensive due-diligence packet is available, and ample time is allotted for tours and inspections prior to the auction. Similar to rare artwork that does not have comparable pieces to set the value, exceptional properties such as this are well suited for auction, where bidders set the market value.

The Georgetown auction will start promptly at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, August 5th. Provisions for remote bidding can be arranged. The property will be available for prospective bidders to preview beginning Friday, August 1st, at 11:00 a.m., with daily preview times scheduled through the date of the auction. Buyers may contact Grand Estates Auction Companys auction information office to schedule an appointment during one of the preview times at 877-376-9560. A $ 50,000.00 certified check or personal check along with a bank letter of guarantee will be required to register to bid. Real estate agents and brokers are fully protected and encouraged to participate.

Grand Estates Auction Company is the leader in the niche market of auctioning luxury real estate, specializing in properties valued at $ 2 million and above throughout North America, the Caribbean, and select international destinations. Based in Charlotte, N.C., the company was established in 1999 and was the first of its kind.
