How To Make Your Home In Costa Rica Your Backup Plan
You never know what life is going to bring next. Even those of us with the top job security or those in the safest countries in the world could have life turn around in the blink of an eye.
 
That is why you should always have a ‘Plan B’ – a place to escape everything from catastrophic situations to a hectic season of life.
 
Why not make a home in Costa Rica that ‘Plan B’? After all, the comfort of knowing you always have another home no matter what happens allows you to enjoy that “Pura Vida” life worry-free.
 
Here is how to make your home in Costa Rica your backup plan:

1. Emergency Shelter


If any emergency pops up in your home country and you need a safe refuge for a time, your Costa Rican home can be your place of escape.
 
Since it is incredibly easy for foreigners to buy property and live in Costa Rica, you could stay comfortably during the time you need to be away.
 
Costa Rica is a safe country without a military. You do not have to worry about attacks and uprisings. You do not have to worry about uncontrollable violent crime. This is the land of “Pura Vida” after all!
 
Becoming a resident is not a complicated process, or simply staying for an extended visit is easy as well.
 
The reassurance of knowing you have a beautiful, safe, comfortable country and home to escape to can bring you and your family confidence no matter what happens at home.

2. Have Another Option


Having a ‘Plan B’ is not always as serious as dangerous weather or terrorist uprisings in your home country. Sometimes, a ‘Plan B’ is just another option on the table.
 
Let’s take retirement, for example. Sometimes retirement is planned out down to the very last detail, but sometimes unexpected things happen.
 
If you already have a vacation home in Costa Rica, you always have a place to retire to. You can live simply and inexpensively in Costa Rica while still enjoying a luxurious retirement lifestyle in gorgeous weather and a laid back community.
 
If you are interested in purchasing a vacation home in Costa Rica that can turn into your backup plan – you are going to want a real estate agent who knows the area well and can guide you in the right direction. Contact Richard at Richard@cbtamarindo.com.

Laurel and Tony,
The both of you were fantastic with us throughout the property search and purchase process. As we had mentioned, two other attempts to find thorough, attentive, responsive agents to work with in Tamarindo were failures. I expect that we are more work to deal with than many others as we asked a lot of thorough and analytical questions and expected responses to all of them. You two never failed to deliver. The organization and execution of our condo shopping trip in January was excellent and the fact that you two devoted 2 full days to us, around our schedule, to get this deal done was key to our success. The selection of properties that Laurel planned out, including a few places above and below our target zone helped us to refine our interests. We truly appreciated your interest in our success. This could easily have been very stressful for us, and yet, it wasn’t. Thank you very much.
As a side note, when we walked into the Coldwell Banker office randomly with no appointment in November had we not found your office staff patient and accommodating from the start we would have simply walked on to the next agency. Your staff deserves special mention for getting us interested in the agency to begin with.
We will give you some advance notice before we make our first trip down so that we can plan to get together for lunch or dinner. We are tentatively planning on somewhere in the last 2 weeks of May, as soon as our son gets out of school for the summer.

Dan Batliner, Costa Rica

We are- UNHAPPILY- home safe. Would much rather be back in Tamarindo. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING you did to make our stay a joy ! We look very much forward to seeing you on our next trip to Costa Rica. PURA VIDA !

Steve Perry, Costa Rica

While my computer is still running here, I'd like to take the opportunity to thank you for your help during our stay.
When we first came to your office, we were in dire straights and in desperate need of assistance. Andrea was extremely compassionate, spoke with candor, and had a "can do attitude" that was of immense help.
In addition, Andrea has put us in contact with Steve, with whom we are working, preparing to view a little property that might be just what we are looking for at this particular time.
In addition, having gotten to know Andrea personally as well as professionally has been our great pleasure. I wanted to let you know what a tremendous asset she is to your company. She is a great treasure -- a one in a million.

Tina Parker, Costa Rica

We had so much fun at Buena Vista. Thanks for arranging that with Memo.
I also want to say many thanks for all that you have done. We have enjoyed Costa Rica and I have found you so helpful with everything and a pleasure to deal with that it was a very stress free vacation. When I do come back here hopefully you will still be doing what what you do.
Our last couple of days will be spent enjoying the sunshine and eating at great restaurants. Sincerely,

Tara, Kevin and Roy., Costa Rica
