In today's episode I interview Jose Sanchez, an attorney based in Jaco, Costa Rica. Here's what we talked about:
00:42 How do you get residence and a bank account in Costa Rica?
05:34 Between filing for residence and getting final approval, how long do you have to wait?
08:06 What does the real estate buying process in Costa Rica look like from start to finish?
15:06 When it comes to getting a bank loan, where are most of the private lenders in Costa Rica?
21:39 Should a foreigner buy property individually, or through a company?
23:58 Compared to other countries, how strong are Costa Rica's property ownership laws?
28:50 For real estate developers, what is the process for developing condominiums and similar projects?
To get in touch with Jose, got to CRLaw.info
And if you'd like to meet with Jose and other experts and get tailored advice on your own situation with moving to Costa Rica, then considering coming to our 7 day relocation retreat: MovingToCostaRica.com/p/retreat

Be aware Costa Rica law system encourages squatters. I have been fighting for my home for a year and the system have not help me at all. The system remove all owners rights and gives your home to the squatters. Contracts don’t have any value in this judicial system

The attorney mentioned you need your passport and a utility bill showing you are renting in Costa Rica. Did you have a utility bill with a CR address? I'm curious about your experience.

Yes, a lot of new requirements for corporations so do not get one unless you really need it. The attorney can do these requirements for you but once you have residency you can apply for a digital signature and do it yourself.

Generally you will be given a 90 day visa. After that you can make a run to the border (Nicaragua and Panamá) and go out then back in and renew. A lot of people do that and it has so far worked out for them and we call them perennial tourists.

For filipinas is 30 days can be extended for another 30 days. Border run after that.
