What advice to expats in Escazu have about housing?

"Expats in Escazu recommend researching the area thoroughly before committing to a rental or purchase. It is important to consider the location, safety, and amenities of the area. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local laws and regulations regarding renting or buying property. It is also recommended to work with a reputable real estate agent who is familiar with the area and can provide helpful advice. Finally, it is important to budget for additional costs such as utilities, taxes, and maintenance," remarked another expat in Escazu, Costa Rica.

"Housing is sooo cheap here versus San Diego, CA. And we completely remodeled our large condo for such an incredibly low cost vs. San Diego. We were in shock when the bids came back. And the high quality materials we used were also dirt cheap compared to San Diego. We replaced all major appliances (frig, stove top, TV's, oven, microwave, all plumbing fixtures, etc. etc. and the prices were comparable to the cost in the US. We had heard they would cost much more. They did not," said a member in Escazu, Costa Rica.
