DECIDING TO SELL

So you have decided to sell your property in Costa Rica. Coming to this decision can be an emotional one, but it needn’t be a complicated one. Before anything else, it is a good idea to sit down and clarify your motivations and draw up a basic time frame for the selling process.

Why Sell?

Ask yourself why you want to sell your property. Do you intend to simply find a larger property, or do you plan on moving to another neighborhood or area of Costa Rica?  Have you decided to invest your funds elsewhere?  You might think your reasons are obvious, but it would serve well to consider the implications of each option for your lifestyle, opportunities, and finances. Being clear about your intentions for selling will make it easier for Flamingo Beach Realty to determine the most appropriate option for your specified financial, lifestyle, and real estate goals.

When Should I Sell?

You should immediately establish your time frame for selling. However, managing expectations is also important. In Costa Rica, it’s not unusual for homes to take longer to sell than in North America.  It can often take months or even a year to sell.  Keeping in mind that we are mainly a cash market here, we have to find the right buyer for you. If you need to sell quickly, Flamingo Beach Realty can help to speed up the process by giving you a complete market analysis and action plan to obtain all of your goals. We harness digital marketing, digital campaigns and social media campaigns to enhance our efforts and help you achieve the timeline you have in mind.

What Is The Market Like?

Here’s some good news: unlike North America, the Costa Rica real estate market is relatively stable, with little exposure to bubbles and busts. However, Flamingo Beach Realty comes to the table with many years of knowledge and expertise to arrive at the best market prices and terms. We will keep you up-to-date on what is happening in the marketplace and the price, financing, terms and conditions of competing properties. With us, you will know exactly how to price and when to sell your property.
