This is how to buy a Vacation home
A perfect vacation home setup
Many people rush into buying their vacation home and find later that rentals are low, maintenance is high and the quality is not what it appeared. In the end, they would probably have done better paying rent. The objectives govern much of the decision so it is not fair to say that and leave it there. Some people just want debt service covered and look to the future for gain. Others just want their own place and really don’t care about the cost so much.
If you happen to be lucky and find one that is free standing, has luxurious design, in excellent condition, nice grounds and close to golf and a place like Tamarindo for dining, shopping and beaches then you have done well. If it also has a good track record for rentals and is a home then rentals will be better as families tend to like homes.

There is a vacation home in the southern area of Costa Rica which is a real gem and is very reasonably prices. Anyone thinking of visiting Costa Rica must check out this vacation rental.
This house is perfectly located for those thinking of retiring in Costa Rica and wanting to have a base to investigate their options from. The rate for long term stays are reasonable and the property manager lives minutes away.
The privacy is perfect yet you are close enough to San Isidro to go for dinner at a moments notice, the drive is 15 minutes and the travel distance is about 2.5 miles.
When considering retiring in Costa Rica is is wise to try it on for size first before you make that final jump and what better way than to rent a private home for and extended period.
