Historically, buying Real Estate in Costa Rica has been a cash only transaction for foreigners. Either you have the cash, or obtain it by refinancing an asset back home. Trying to obtain a loan from a bank in Costa Rica was almost impossible.
That has changed dramatically with today's announcement; Banco Banex in Costa Rica in cooperation with Stewart Title Mortgage has forged a strong relationship to develop a new lending program specifically designed for non-resident citizens.
The Los Altos Condominiums Project has been pre-approved for this program, thus making for an easy and fast approval process for potential buyers.
