I am a naturalized citizen of Costa Rica. I first arrived (from the U.S.) in 2001 to broker a deal that sold one of the country’s premier private universities to a U.S. publicly-held education company. Since 2004 I’ve arranged eco-intensive Costa Rica vacation tours to locations throughout the country, as well as Nicaragua, Panama and Colombia. In addition to serving as an agent with the Coldwell Banker Dominical Realty team since 2015, I offer Expat Consulting and conduct guided Expat Tours.
Having decided to realise our dreams and move to Costa Rica, we were lucky enough to meet Scott.
Scott was able to get us round every property we wanted to see (listed with different companies). He gathered pertinent information before and after visits (which he accompanied us on), and liaised directly with listing agents and property owners, which made life very simple for us. We dealt with Scott and he dealt with everyone and everything else.
Scott is genuine, easy going, patient, low pressure and very knowledgeable about Costa Rica and the way things work here. He connected us to the right people and took us through the whole process of buying a property from start to finish. Without Scott's help we could never have found our dream home here in Costa RIca.
If you do one thing here in Costa Rica related to property purchase, let it be connecting fully with Scott, believe me, it will save you time, money and aggravation.

Whether you shop primarily at local stores or imported-goods supermarkets matters. And whether you're trying to recreate your North American lifestyle in Costa Rica or adapt to a more l...
Few subjects in Costa Rica real estate create more confusion than beachfront property.People hear that Costa Rica’s beaches are public, that coastal property cannot be privately owned, that foreigners cannot hold concessions—or, just as often, that a particular beachfront property is fully titled. All of those statements contain some truth, but none tells the whole story.The re...
One of the things I've learned after years of selling real estate in Costa Rica is that our market doesn't operate in a vacuum.Costa Rica has its own economy, its own construction costs and its own peculiarities when it comes to buying and selling property. But when it comes to the international real estate market—particularly the lifestyle and higher-end market—the economic mo...
