I started looking for a home in Costa Rica in October 2010. I was spending countless hours on the internet hunting for that dream-house amidst thousands of ads listed by hundreds of "realtors" (and I use that term loosely). If you have made any calls yourself inquiring about property or houses you know that EVERYONE in Costa Rica is a "realtor". I talked to SO MANY "realtors" but most of them were just people that knew of houses for sale and really had very limited knowledge about the legal transfer of property, or how to check for liens, etc. During
Read MoreTo whom it may concern, I have never met a better real estate representative in the USA or in Costa Rica. He (Kevin Cantwell) listens, works hard, and is very intelligent. I came to Costa Rica looking for a specific piece of land and after describing what I wanted, Kevin found it and showed me the most beautiful mountain ocean view I have ever seen. Without Kevin, I would not be living the Pura Vida in Costa Rica. I highly recommend Kevin Cantwell. Jay Barker – Bijagual, CR
Read MoreTo whom it may concern, I was going to buy a condo in Samara (Costa Rica) and I spoke to Lisle (Head) because a friend of mine brought a property from him and told me I could trust him. Well I not only trust Lisle, but I like him as a person and now consider him a friend which is why I am writing this testimonial. So I was going to buy a condo in Samara and Lisle just came out with the hard reality of that area. He spoke to me about the pro’s and con’s not because

I walk a block in barefoot with my surfboard to get to the beach and a great surf spot, I hand carry my groceries home, I am 3 minutes away from a quality gym, and I am right in the middle of all that Jaco has to offer. I used to live in Hawaii and the equivalent of my condo there would cost AT LEAST 10 times more! And to top off the great location and price,

For the previous five years, we had been actively scouring the Baja Peninsula of Mexico from Rosarito to Cabo, the western coast of the Mexico mainland, from San Carlos to Puerto Vallarta, and Panama, from Bocas del Toro to Panama City, in search of that perfect second home which was directly on the beach, in a safe and relaxing environment offering vast and varied amenities, and immersed in a culture of
