ABOUT THE LIVING LIFE IN COSTA RICA BLOG

I (Vicki Skinner - aka "THE Sarong Goddess") created this blog in 2007 to share DETAILED Finds•Lists•Info•Events•Experiences to help bring more EASE to people living in, visiting or thinking of moving to Costa Rica since DETAILS are NOT easy to find!
I’m NOT an expert (an "expert" 2 ME knows 101%-NOT me). I believe in sharin info•helping where I can! And with over 2,200 entries, so some things might be out of date, so if you find old info PLEASE help each other by getting the updated info & sharing it with me to revise. At least you have some basic info to get you started.
VOLUNTEER TO HELP:
Better yet - do you have extra time on your hands & looking for a volunteer project? Since this blog is a labor of love & RARELY does anyone share a donation (even though MANY have said how much it's helped them), I could REALLY use help updating info. Spanish speakers ESPECIALLY welcome since my VicLish can be somewhat limited at times!!

Buying a Property•House•Condo in Costa Rica? CHECK DEEPLY!!!!

Are you considering buying a house, condo or land that's for sale in Costa Rica?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE READ AND DO THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MAKE SURE the property has EVERYTHING clear with it!!!  ALL proper permits in place?  NO denuncias/lawsuits against it or the current (or even previous) owner?? 

Just because a property is with a big/"respected" realtor does NOT always mean EVERY rock has been un-turned and if it were me, I sure wouldn't want to spend $$$ on a property to find out something was wrong with it down the line - like not all parts of it were built with proper permits and the solution they offer is to tear that part down now would you??

It's CRUCIAL to make sure of this ALWAYS in Costa Rica as it's NOT that rare for there to be problems from what MANY have shared with me!!!!
