Many people welcome the change of Country for their retirement years as a new horizon and opportunity. It can be a refreshing experience. They look forward to the change and want to do new and different things, learn, develop satisfying hobbies such as photography, painting etc.
Unfortunately, they often embark on this without a lot of concern over the cultural shock that may accompany the lifestyle. This sometimes results in people leaving if they are not prepared and have to learn this as a result of living in a new Country. A great deal of retirement money and time are spent going full steam ahead based on what you read and hear without being properly prepared.
Often, people will follow friends, or buy into the publicity of certain Countries without knowledge of the great amount of adjustment that is needed. Sometimes, the spouse does not share the enthusiasm of the partner and goes along reluctantly but obediently only to find it impacts on the relationship and therefore, the lifestyle later on.
Costa Rica Retirement may not be for everyone, but if handled properly, a very high percentage will choose Costa Rica for their offshore retirement location because of what the Country offers.
Many people choose to come on Tours, look things over and often decide to give it a shot. Often people buy where they think would be suitable for their lifestyle. This can be risky as many things will be impacted by this decision.
Often people come here and use Real Estate companies to investigate. Good companies have to qualify their clients and when they find you are only coming to look around, you are relegated to a minimum of service simply because their sales people are on commission and cannot afford to be consultants for free anymore. So, this is not the best approach to to making the decision that will impact the second half of your life.
Other rent for a year to see if they really are going to like it as well as where they want to live. If after a year, they decide that they will live here, they have spent a lot of retirement money, and passed one year living in rented quarters instead of your own dream retirement home.
