Costa Rica, a gem spanning less than 20,000 square miles, boasts unparalleled natural beauty and a plethora of reasons making it an ideal destination for investment, retirement, and vacation.

Happiness Abounds: Referred to as "the happiest people on earth," Costa Ricans (Ticos) have enjoyed a solid democracy for nearly 160 years, with 63 years completely military-free since abolishing the army in 1948. Resources are dedicated to education, health, and environmental protection, evident in the 161 National Parks, Reserves, and Refuges covering 26% of the country.
Quality Living: Costa Rica offers an exceptional lifestyle with inexpensive medical care, affordable housing, secure property rights, a healthy investment atmosphere, excellent transportation and communication networks, and a plethora of activities.
Legal Protections: Foreign property owners receive the same legal protections as citizens, fostering a sense of security and trust.
Favorable Tax System: Property tax rates are substantially lower than in North America, contributing to a favorable financial environment.
Political Stability: Known as the 'Switzerland of the Americas,' Costa Rica has been a democracy for over 100 years, boasting political stability and a commitment to disarmament (abolishing its army in 1948).
High Living Standards: With a 96% literacy rate, Costa Rica boasts high living standards, top-notch medical care, and superior education levels in the region.
Foreign Investment Magnet: The nation's stability and robust tourism industry have attracted significant foreign investments from renowned companies like GlaxoSmithKline, Intel, Proctor & Gamble, and Microsoft.
Costa Rica, with its harmonious blend of nature, lifestyle, and economic stability, stands as an inviting haven for those seeking a fulfilling and vibrant life. Welcome to Pura Vida!
