Green Development and profitability

Share on Twitter

Green Developments are one of the most popular Tourist Vacation destinations.

Green development is a very practical approach for devlopers these days.  Buying undeveloped Ocean view view land is a bargain today in Costa Rica.

Finding the right project can be a lengthy process.   Costa Rica Real Estate that is suited to Green development can be found in many areas of the country.  Costa Rica is 1% of the world landmass and 4% of the Biodiversity which says a lot for choosing this Country for  Green Development.

Even though Green suggests a remote location, it is wise to have some amenities nearby so location is a prime consideration.  

A checklist to consider in making a prime Costa Rica Green Development

Buy large  acreage that can yield low density
Use no more than one third of the land for development
Land should include a River, Waterfalls, Valleys, Mountains, varied terrain and a variety of Animals
Access to a center with health care within 1 hour.
Soil suitable for organic farming
It should be undeveloped land with good options available (ideally a piece of land with no plan regulador in place)

A meeting with Certification of Sustainable Tourism a division of ITC (Costa Rica Tourism Board) to identify the various grades and decide what level you wish for your  project.

There are many locations as mentioned above and also many different prices for Costa Rica Development land that is suited to Green Development.  A good example of one with all the ingredients is here.
