Buying and Building

When buying and Building in Costa Rica, being knowledgeable about and adhering to existing protocol and legal requirements in Costa Rica is the key to successful property purchases and building projects. Following are a few points to help you get started on the right path.

Before purchasing a property, evaluate the following:
Water source
Electrical availability
Telephone access
Easement issues
Structural integrity
Drainage
Many of these evaluations can be conducted onsite and/or with the Public Registry, Ministry of Public Works, Ministry of Health, National Institute of Housing and Urban Development, and/or the local Municipality office. Before building on a property, secure a licensed architect or engineer to:
Develop engineered and approved plans
