Costa Rica Buyer's Agents

Costa Rica Buyer's Agents

Why do you need a Buyer's Agent for your search for Costa Rica Real Estate?
Real Estate. Finding the perfect dream home, vacation rental, retirement or 2nd home in Costa Rica requires someone who thinks the way you do, is trust worthy and knows the Costa Rica Real Estate Market intimitately. Laws and procedures in Costa Rica will appear to be similar to that in the US and Canada, but they are different. Your search is a perfect balance between finding a property that fits your needs and criteria in a location that is perfect for your buying goals and lifestyle. Oceanside Realty is committed to comb the Costa Rican beachfront communities, cities and countryside to find the property that is the best fit for YOU, at the best price and at the perfect location. Testimonials

How does Oceanside Realty get paid when they are my Costa Rica Buyer's Agent?
We have two programs for payment. The most common is similar to a traditional North American Real Estate transaction where the seller pays the commission directly to Oceanside Realty. The second is a more pure form of Buyer's Agency where you, the Buyer, pay a flat fee. Half of the fee is due up front when we start working together and the second half is paid at closing. Any commission offered from the Seller is applied back to the Buyer at closing.

How can I be sure that Oceanside Realty is the right company?
Oceanside has an extensive and diverse list of satisfied buyers who have provided testimonials. We can put you in touch with some satisfied buyers who voluntarily can attest to our professionalism, honesty and expert knowledge.

How is working with Oceanside Realty different than other Costa Rica real estate companies and different than what a real estate agent does in the US or Canada?
When working with Costa Rica real estate, a good real estate agent assumes many roles including the traditional role of locating properties for you. In addition to finding and helping you to purchase your property in Costa Rica, Oceanside Realty works as your Costa Rica travel agent and Costa Rica tour guide. We teach you about the Costa Rican culture, how foreigners interact within Costa Rica, about banking in Costa Rica, Costa Rican taxes, accounting in Costa Rica, legal assistance in Costa RIca, how to pay your electric and water bills in Costa Rica and while you are not in Costa Rica, Costa Rica property taxes, incorporating (or not) a Costa Rica company, etc. We work with you on each and every one of these issues relevant to your Costa Rican Real Estate purchase, living in Costa Rica and interacting in Costa Rica. Many Costa Rica real estate agents abandon their clients at the closing table. Our work is just beginning at the closing. We sweat all of the details so you don't have to and will teach you everything you need to know for successful home ownership in Costa Rica. Done right, you will have many years of memories and happiness and our Costa Rica paradise will also be yours!

If I work with Oceanside Realty as my Buyer's Agent, will I be limited to the Costa Rica properties I can see?
Absolutely not. Actually, you will see more properties in Costa Rica and receive unbiased information on all of the Costa Rica properties that you are viewing. Oceanside Realty has access to all of the listings in Costa Rica. We do the work and search the Costa Rica properties and have hundreds of strategic partnerships throughout Costa Rica.
