Introduction
The number one Costa Rica real estate and investment podcast, bringing you experts from all over Costa Rica.
Good afternoon, guys, and welcome to episode 281 of Costa Rica real estate and investments with me, your host. Today, I’m joined by Dan Chaput from Costa Rica Private Loans. We’ve had Dan on here before.
I love getting him on here as a straight shooter. Just no hype, no fluff. You know, he’s deep in the trenches of Costa Rican lending, sees deals before they happen and sometimes before they fall apart, and isn’t afraid to say what others won’t.
You know, I think a lot of people are, it’s rainbows and unicorns. Dan is not. So today we’re going to be talking candidly about what he really thinks is happening in Costa Rica and where things are headed next.
Remember, Dan is actually the owner of Costa Private Loans. It’s a firm that specializes in private loan, servicing for people looking to basically purchase property, unlock equity for expansions, or acquire additional assets or structure alternative financing solutions here in Costa Rica. And we’ve covered quite a bit of the financing stuff as with Volo Loans and also Second Street, which is another mortgage provider, which we’ll be getting on the podcast soon.
There’s a lot more options available. Remember, guys, if you are looking to invest, build, looking for project management, buy real estate here and just want to chat with us. Again, we’re very candid.
You know, we’ll tell you what’s really happening here. It’s a buyer’s market, that’s for sure. So lots of opportunity.
You can email us info at investing costa rica.com. That’s info at investing costa rica.com. All of our contact details are also in the description down below.
But let’s get straight into the podcast. Good afternoon, Dan, how you doing? Hey, Richard, how are you?
Good, man. I love it when we do podcasts together, just because I know there’s no BS. And I know people enjoy that and don’t get the, as I like to call it, the rainbows and unicorns.
Dan Chaput
Yeah, I think it’s better overall just to tell people how things really are, at least the perspective. So you can be ready for it. If it’s all rainbows and unicorns, then you can, you know, get hit in the face by something unexpected.
And that’s not really helping people. It’s better to help people with honesty.
Richard Bexon
Yeah, I agree, man. And look, I mean, I think a lot of people can accept some of the challenges or what’s happening as long as they know about it. Yeah, for sure.
Well, Dan, I mean, 2025 was a turbulent year globally. You know, from your vantage point in private lending, how would you describe what actually happened in Costa Rica, and then segueing into what you think is going to happen in 2026?
2025 Market Reset and Exchange Rate Shock
Dan Chaput
A lot of properties and asking prices dropped significantly. People really starting to get the point that you just can’t sell for ridiculous prices anymore. There’s still plenty out there.
But I saw a lot of people coming down to reality, not expecting to get 100%, 200% margins anymore. A lot more inventory coming on the market. It still seems like everything’s for sale.
I think things are starting to move now a little bit more that people are being reasonable. But coming back to normality, and I always like normality. I don’t like these big boom cycles.
I don’t like it when every dummy off the street is making a ton of money that’s not sustainable. We want to have a business marketplace, a real estate marketplace, any marketplace to where the good hardworking people that add value are the ones that float to the top and not just anybody building a house.
Richard Bexon
As you mentioned, anyone building a house. I’m speaking to a client this morning where he was like, Rich, should I be building or buying? I’m like, no, dude, you should be buying at the moment, if that makes sense.
Don’t build with the current exchange rate and the uncertainty of that. I think we’re at 480 today.
Dan Chaput
Yes, 480 by what was it? Both the buy and the sell are under 500.
Richard Bexon
Which is insane. It is. It doesn’t appear to be changing.
It just appears to be going down.
Dan Chaput
I’ve been saying for the last couple of years, no, it’s going to go back. No, it’s going to go back. It’ll settle around 600.
I’ve been wrong for the last three years. I don’t know how they maintain that. I think it’s been good to, it’s a strategy that they’ve, kudos to the president for this.
I know the current president is on his way out shortly and he’s not the favorite of a lot of people, but he’s used that exchange rate parity to pay off a lot of foreign debt. The foreign debt in Costa Rica has dropped, I’m going to say the wrong numbers, but somewhere along the lines of 68% of GDP dropping down to like 52%. It’s a pretty significant drop just in a few years.
I’m glad he used the money for that.
Richard Bexon
Yeah, I am as well. Look, I mean, I can’t say I’m the guy’s favorite. I love him, but from a point of view of the economics of what he’s done, I have to go kudos to you, dude.
You did a great job. I think Costa Ricans have probably never felt richer, if that makes sense, when traveling abroad as well.
Dan Chaput
I would say Costa Ricans have never felt richer, probably have never been richer. I’ll say a statement that since I’ve been here 20 years, I think you’ve been here a similar amount of time. It’s the best I’ve ever seen. Yep, I agree.
Dan Chaput
Most livable, the most infrastructure, activities, jobs. There are some problems that we have now and you’ll see these in presidential debates. The big problems are crime, the Caja and public education.
I totally agree with those. Those are not the best they’ve ever been. They’re among the worst.
But for livability for an expat or an immigrant, I would say it’s the best it’s been.
Richard Bexon
Yeah. So get your crystal ball, 2026. What do you think it’s going to be?
Dan Chaput
2026, I think we’re going to continue as far as real estate goes in expat markets. I think there’ll be less and less inventory available. I think that prices will come down.
I think that business activity for tourism will slow slightly, but not a lot. The cream is going to rise to the top. I think we have too much inventory as far as mid-range Airbnbs, for example.
Everybody wanted to buy a two-bedroom, three-bedroom condo and rent it out seven or eight months out of the year and then live in it part of the year. A lot of people did that. I don’t think that most of them are profitable anymore.
So I think that market is, a lot of those are going to be for sale, probably at reasonable prices. People are going to want the liquidity out of those. We offer loans to a lot of those people who are trying to sell and can’t, and they need some liquidity while it sells.
I don’t think we’re going to have a lot of price appreciation on real estate. I think price depreciation. But I think overall, thinking about the total economy of Coaster, it’ll continue to improve.
A lot of new businesses have come in. There’s a lot of international companies that are still coming in. The Central Valley, where you and I live, has been expanding like crazy.
Where you are, Nereide, where I am on the west side of San Jose, if you’ve been to Cartago lately, all of the commercial industrial growth that’s happening there is incredible. So I think we’re diversifying more. And just as a country, we’re becoming a lot more developed, hopefully in a relatively sustainable way.
Richard Bexon
I think it’s a sustainable way. I mean, look, Minai and Sinai are still a big pain in the butt, and for good reasons to be, if that makes sense. So yeah, I mean, we’ll see what happens.
But look, I agree with a lot of what you’re saying there on 2026. I think it’s going to definitely be an interesting year. And I think what you said there, it’s like the cream will rise, if that makes sense.
I did a podcast a while back where somebody asked me, hey, Rich, if you had a book about 2026, what’s it called? It was like, it’s called Separating the Wheat from the Chaff. On all fronts.
So we’re going to see who can really operate now. But what’s the uncomfortable truth about Costa Rica or Costa Rican real estate right now that people don’t want to talk about, because it scares buyers or developers or brokers?
The Uncomfortable Truth: Value, Barriers and Costs
Dan Chaput
It’s not a good value overall. So a lot of people are hoping that buyers are going to be very emotional, and they see this beautiful house in a jungle with an ocean view, and they’ll just pay the asking price. What a lot of people have lost sight of is there’s a lot for sale.
You can’t really compare it to Canada or Europe, because they’re not really tropical markets as much, maybe some parts of Europe. But say, compared to the Southern US, there’s a lot of inventory there, right? In Georgia, South Carolina, Florida.
And you can buy them with 20%, 30% down, you can still keep your job. A lot of them are priced similarly per square foot or square meter as here. And it’s just a lot easier property to get into with a lot fewer barriers going into it.
I think a lot of people forget how many barriers there are to buying and living here long term, because a lot of people want to come with their kids. And then they realize that, you know, I need to buy this thing, I either need to do cash or get a loan at a higher interest rate than the US or Canada. If you qualify for a loan, the deposit is going to be significantly larger, you’re going to need a 30 to 40% down payment.
You’re going to need to probably work remotely or be relatively wealthy in order to do that. If you’re working remotely, you’re still going to be paying taxes in your home country, because that’s where income is coming from. Plus, you’re going to have to pay the taxes here, which are mostly not income taxes, but they’re mostly levied on imports.
That’s where we get most of our taxes is import taxes and EVA taxes. So I kind of see that almost as a double tax in a way, because, you know, maybe products cost a lot less in the US or Canada. But they cost a lot more here.
And it’s because of those import tariffs and those import taxes. So people want their kids to go to good schools because of the current state of the public school system. You can put your kids in a public school system, but most people will see that as inadequate and they’ll want to put them in private.
So then on top of all this, you’re probably paying, I think my daughter’s 20 now, but she was always in private schools and probably averaged $1,000 to $1,200 a month in private school. So a lot of these people, you know, they’ve got two, maybe three kids. They’re really getting sticker shock.
The cost of having it, bringing your family here is incredibly high. So the houses and the homes that the developers need to realize that there’s a lot of these barriers and that their homes and properties and locations need to have some advantages in order to counteract those disadvantages.
Richard Bexon
Yeah. Look, I’ve been looking at buying a house recently to kind of understand that, you know, and there’s just so many developments available here, Dan, and they all look the same. Like it’s all pretty much the same now.
They look the same, but I was thinking the other day, I was like, where is the kind of mid-level longevity, like focused development that like, where it is like saunas, because not many of them have saunas. Some of them do, some of them don’t, but like, it’s more of kind of like saunas, coal plungers, hot tubs, but like there is actual like medical facility, like light medical facilities on site, if you know what I mean. And those kinds of stuff that’s, that’s focused a little bit more around longevity here.
And I’m saying here in the city, not the beaches. You know, I mean, people in their forties and fifties that are just like, Hey dude, I want to live a little bit longer and live a little bit more of a healthy life. Like how can I do that? Right.
Richard Bexon
You know, anyway, I saw that the other day and was just like, wow, that would be an interesting thing of like how to differentiate your product, you know? And I think that’s what a lot of developers are going to have to now do is really differentiate their products.
Dan Chaput
I’m going to throw something out there since you brought this up. So where I live, I live in a little place in Santana and for whatever reason, I guess it’s mostly happened during COVID. Everybody kind of got to know each other.
It’s a community of maybe 75 houses. It’s probably 75% Costa Rican, maybe 25% Latinos from other parts of Latin America, Argentina, Chile, Venezuela, Columbia, right. Maybe 5% North American.
And we have something that is really special that if a developer could do it, it would be incredible in order to duplicate and what we have is a sense of community. So everybody knows each other. The kids all get together.
They play together. They, you know, everybody, we leave our doors open. Instead of borrowing my car, I say, yeah, go ahead and take my car.
If a developer could take, have homes and then set up in a way to where people all knew each other, worked together, helped each other, you know, hey, do you know where I can find a good gardener? Do you know where I can fix my car? Why don’t we have a picnic together on Sundays?
That really having that community aspect, women love that. Men like it too.
Richard Bexon
Kids love it. Kids love it. Yeah.
I mean, I had that in the condominium I lived, you know, I mean, it took 12 years and a pandemic, you know, to really, to really get there. And the pandemic I think really helped that kind of stuff, but agree. I mean, more of that interaction of knowing your neighbors and also what they do, because again, I mean, if you’ve got an accountant or lawyer next door or something, you need some help.
I mean, how easy is it just to knock on their door? Yep. So, but, well, look, let me change gears a little bit, Dan, because again, you know, we’ve had a couple of comments here from people listening about gentrification, you know, they keep throwing it around.
I mean, do you think there is actual gentrification in Costa Rica? You know, is it short-term speculation dropped off as lifestyle investing? I mean, what do you really think is going on?
Gentrification, Buzzwords and What’s Really Happening
Dan Chaput
People don’t, people use that word incorrectly. They’re using a lot of words and I think they’re sort of political buzzwords. I sort of wonder if there’s some political groups kind of working behind the scenes to slow down development, slow down the tourism.
You know, they think they’re making a big impact possibly on the environment by keeping, you know, development and tourism down. I’m not aware of any gentrification in Costa Rica, certainly not by expats. So what gentrification actually is, is displacing poor people in urban areas, in basically kicking them out.
It generally refers to these big buildings. So this happens, it does happen in places, but it happens in New York, Chicago, Paris, right? So somebody will own a giant building and they’ll have 300 tenants.
They won’t fix it up, they’ll sort of force their tenants out so they can fix up that building and either rent it for a much higher price or sell the building for a high price. That’s what gentrification is, is when you have poor people and you’re forcing them out to improve a property. That’s not what’s happening in Costa Rica.
You also hear the word neo-colonialism or colonialism. Colonialism is coming and forcing your way, you know, upon a society. People are invited here.
Esencial Costa Rica, I mean, they spend tens of millions of dollars asking people to come to Costa Rica. We’re happening in Costa Rica is not gentrification, it’s growth, it’s business development. I would say that the foreign community, the expat community is the least guilty in the beach areas of causing harm.
If you look at the people who do the most environmental harm in Costa Rica, it’s agro-industrial and it’s the Central Valley. That’s where most of it’s done. If you look at these houses in Nosara, in Coco, in Jaco, in the Southern Zone, you’ve got a 200 square meter house on a 2,000 square meter piece of land.
The homes that expats use are very small footprints. They really are.
Richard Bexon
A lot of people throwing the word gentrification around. We’ve covered it here on the podcast a couple of times. Is there actual gentrification in Costa Rica or what do you think is really going on?
Dan Chaput
I’ve heard that word thrown around quite a bit as well. I’ve heard political candidates use it. I’ve seen it in chat groups.
There isn’t really gentrification and I think people really misunderstanding what that is and what the true definition of gentrification is. Gentrification is when poor people are forced out of large urban areas and forced to leave and displaced. This will happen in New York, it’ll happen in Chicago, it happens in Europe, I’m sure.
It may happen here in a very small way in the Central Valley, but in tourist areas, expat areas, I’ve never seen it happen. I’m completely unaware of it ever happening. If you think about a large building in New York, let’s just say it’s Harlem and parts of Harlem used to be bad and now they’re pretty nice.
Somebody owns a big building and they kind of force all their renters out by not fixing things up and then they get everybody out. They fix up the building and maybe they raise rents or they sell off the building. That’s what gentrification is.
That doesn’t happen here. What we have here in Costa Rica is when people will willingly buy and sell a piece of land or willingly buy and sell a home and then they fix it up and the prices go up. This is just standard real estate development.
This is what happens everywhere in the world. When a place gets popular, the prices go up and undoubtedly the prices have gone up in a lot of different places. Any spot that gets popular where a lot of people want to go, the prices will go up.
That’s not gentrification. It’s also not neocolonialism or whatever that word is that they use. People are invited here.
They are incentivized to come here. Essential Costa Rica spends tens of millions of dollars every year marketing about Costa Rica, all of the world, to try to incentivize and invite people to come here, invest as individuals, as families, as businesses. What we have is we’re living in a country now that’s become popular and the prices have gone up.
Even the people coming here, look, the expat community, how many of us are there? 100, 150,000 maybe? Probably somewhere around that, yeah.
It’s not that many. There’s five and a half million people in the country. Prices have gone up in a few very small sectors of mostly tourist-related areas.
In the Central Valley, it’s more or less the same. Granted, new construction costs more than older stuff, but in Tico areas, I’ve seen very little price appreciation. What about you?
Richard Bexon
Look, on houses, I think I bought my first house here for $120,000. 20 years later, it was $220,000. It’s not huge amounts of appreciation.
Coastal areas where there’s tourism demand, prices have gone crazy. I think, again, I agree. A lot of it is political as well, of people trying to get on that bandwagon and hit the drum on that.
We’ve seen that stuff happen all over the world. We’ve seen the left with Maduro up in Nicaragua, etc. There are some people that are like, yeah, you know what?
The reason I’m still not doing as good as all my neighbors and everything is because of that. That’s exactly why it is a lot of the time. I get it.
Look, I also understand is that from the point of view of like, let’s take an area like Nosada, where beforehand, if you lived down in Nosada and you’re just a regular person, maybe like $300,000, $600 a month, and now your neighbors are multimillion dollar homes, and you’ve got a nice street now with a nice sidewalk, and your piece of land is probably worth about a million bucks.
Dan Chaput
Exactly. They get quite wealthy off this as well.
Richard Bexon
It benefits Chico’s much more than it hurts. I think what it is sometimes is the people that live further back, maybe sometimes, that don’t see their land appreciate to a million bucks are ridiculous. It’s not really changed that much.
They haven’t taken advantage of the opportunity around them, because there is a lot of opportunity that that brings as well.
Dan Chaput
Totally agree.
Richard Bexon
So many people have had businesses that offer back a lot of this stuff. It’s going to be interesting to see where it comes. Well, look, again, a gear change here.
I think a lot of stuff is still… It’s going to be an interesting year, because we’re seeing everything kind of settling and an idea of now what the future looks like. A lot of projects I’m concerned are going to have issues.
But if someone pitched you a deal today, what are the immediate red flags that make you say, no chance, man, walk away? Because I think we’re about to see a lot of those things, Dan. Or a lot of milk being spilt, and now people are like, oh my God, I can’t believe I did this.
Lending Red Flags and the Small Size of the Economy
Dan Chaput
First big red flag is never having done it before in Costa Rica. I would say is the single biggest thing. So many people come and they don’t have a background or they’re not actively involved.
Maybe they hire a bunch of other people. They’re not keeping an eye on it. You’ve got to really watch it like you and your company does.
I would say that’s the biggest thing is not being familiar with Costa Rica and how projects happen. And then the other thing, it sounds strange, is thinking too big on any one project. The economy of Costa Rica is quite small.
And I use this comparison and people, they’re shocked a little bit. I don’t remember if I mentioned this on our last podcast or not, but I’ll mention it again. So my dad lives in Austin, Texas.
I use this as a reference point because pretty much everybody knows Austin. It’s not overly cheap. It’s not grotesquely priced like New York or California.
It’s kind of right there in the middle. Not a very big town, not a very small town. Costa Rica, the entire GDP of Costa Rica is 40% the size of the city of Austin, Texas.
That’s insane. Google it and find it right there. And it is so, well, you have to do the math and says, what size is the economy and how big is the GDP?
And you look at it right there and like, oh my gosh, the wealth here is very concentrated. Most of the money in Costa Rica comes from outside really. A lot of the multinational corporations, a lot of the people doing these big warehouse projects.
You see the big hardware stores. You see, these are mostly foreigners and foreign corporations doing these things. It’s not coming from inside Costa Rica.
Richard Bexon
Yeah. Yeah. It’s going to be, again, I think people just need to really analyze if they’re going to invest in a deal or see a deal today.
This country has so many dead bodies all over the place and stuff. And there is no obligation legally for anyone to tell you anything. It’s like caveat emptor, buyer beware.
Even the realtor could tell you something and there’s no recourse. There is zero recourse. So I think you just need to, again, either get good advisors or just take your time.
Agreed. Okay. Let’s play this.
If tourism slowed materially for like 12 to 18 months, which part of the market do you think is going to break first and who survives and why do you think?
Airbnb Saturation and Who Breaks First
Dan Chaput
So looking at the market, I think there’s a small, lower priced market. Kind of think of a, I don’t know, a globe. The high end of the market is relatively small.
The low end of the market is relatively small and everybody’s competing for the fat part there in the middle. And a lot of those people aren’t terribly active. They do it as sort of a side thing.
They’re not really focused. They’re not trying to make it the best it is. That middle part, I think is oversaturated and that is what would suffer the most.
So Airbnb would go without reservations. If there’s not something special, either by the structure or the offering or the location or something, just sort of your average apartment, two or three bedroom apartment, may or may not have a view, but there’s thousands of others. Those guys are going to get hit.
They’re going to get very few reservations. To make money here in tourism, in building, in retail, in anything, I guess the same as anywhere else, you really need to focus on your business. You need to know it very well.
You need to put a lot of time, effort and love into it. And if you’re not doing that, you’re going to get hit. And I think that’s what that middle part of the market is, is people who sort of do it on the side.
Richard Bexon
Yeah, I agree, man. I agree. Again, it comes back to that sort of the wheat from the chaff.
It’s going to be an interesting year, 2026, but I still think it’s still going to be a good year. I just think we’re not going to see that astronomical growth. It’s just going to be kind of steady.
Dan Chaput
Yeah. And we’re well positioned now on the global scale. We’re more diversified than we were 10, 15 years ago.
In the past, we really had a lot of pretty severe ups and downs in different things. If a particular market or sector took a hit, you really felt the consequences. Now, I think it’s just going to be a lot more steady with the people who are asleep at the wheel are the ones who are going to get hit.
Richard Bexon
Yeah, I agree. I agree. Okay.
My last question for you is I’ve kept you long enough, Dan. You inherited $500,000 tomorrow. You had to deploy it into Costa Rica into business or real estate.
What would you put it in and why?
If You Had $500K to Invest in Costa Rica
Dan Chaput
And you don’t let me say private loans. Okay. So I’ve got one for you.
Last time I said electrical business, but then somebody else on your podcast also said electrical business. So I’m not going to say that this time. Okay.
So here in the central, you’re not going to, a lot of the people listening to this, they’re going to be very tourism area oriented. They’re not going to be very central Valley, but this is a central Valley business idea. Strangely enough, Costa Rica has a pretty good motorsport community.
People like motorcycles. They like cars. They like four by fours.
There’s a classic car clubs. There’s sports car clubs. Strangely enough.
Now you see a lot of exotic cars on the streets. And there are a couple of places that are, and you’re from the UK. So probably seen these go-kart centers.
Yep. Yep. So you go and you drive go-karts.
Well, we have a couple of those, but they’re pretty outdated. They’re dirty. A lot of the machines are broken.
They use gasoline old gasoline engines. So you go in there and you come out just smelling like gas and you want to close, you know, take off your clothes right away because you smell like exhaust. They don’t regulate them very well.
So kids like preteen kids, you can imagine these little teenage boys just slam the carts into other people. They’re not very big tracks, so you can’t, you know, be fun and competitive about it. But in the UK and the US, there are these electric cart companies.
In the US, there’s one called K1 that I went to. I was like, wow, a very large warehouse, new, modern electric carts. So you don’t, you know, come out smelling like an exhaust pipe.
Nice food. They’ve got race car simulators. They’ve got big stand-up video games, right?
That is something that I would look at. If run well, those can do, they can do pretty decent money. That’s electric go-karts quality management.
Richard Bexon
Yeah. I mean, it’s, I thought that, I thought pop golf as well, you know. Pop golf is so expensive.
It is, it is, it is. But I also had one the other day, which was this, was, you know, I love businesses where I’m able to rent stuff that I like. And I’m like, okay, well, we have like race days in the UK where you get to go and race Ferraris and Porsches and those kinds of things.
You don’t have that here, if that makes sense. But people would, people would pay- We do at the, at the race, at Guasima, there’s a racetrack, yeah. But I mean, like where you can go and rent out a Porsche to go around like three times.
And then next you’d rent out a Ferrari. And the next, like, it’s a whole day event of where you get to rent out a variety of different cars, but you only get a couple of laps with it, you know, but people will pay 500 bucks for it.
Dan Chaput
They have, they have smaller cars, like Hondas and Nissans and stuff that you can rent out. But the high-end cars, no, no, you don’t have that.
Richard Bexon
I’m just saying is, it’s like, it’s one of those aspirational dreams, father’s day, Christmas gifts kind of style stuff. Yeah. And you’re with a driver, like you get to drive it, but you’re with a driver and he takes you around and like, you know, you get to learn all the apexes and kind of like, he’s telling you to break and all those kinds of things.
So.
Dan Chaput
Well, if you want, let’s go to the States and we’ll go do that together.
Richard Bexon
Oh man. I tell you, one of the best days of my life was when I went to Porsche’s headquarters in Atlanta and drove and spent the whole day there, dude, like racing Porsche GT3s. I think it was, it was insane.
It was awesome.
Dan Chaput
Really? Did Carla tell you to say that? No, she didn’t.
She wanted to get that for me for a gift for our next trip to the States. I was like, no, honey, it’s okay, I’ve already got a sports car.
Richard bexon
Oh, Dan, it’s fun, man, it’s fun. Well, Dan, it’s been an absolute pleasure having you on the podcast. I’m sure that we could geek out on cars and businesses here all day, but yeah.
Dan Chaput
We could.
Richard bexon
Awesome, man. I very much appreciate you taking time to join us on the podcast, and I’m sure we’ll have you on again soon. All right.
Thanks so much, Richard. Catch you later.
Dan Chaput
Bye. Bye.
Richard bexon
Guys, I hope you enjoyed that podcast there with Dan. As you can see, we went off on a few different tangents there, jumped from topic to topic, but it’s always good to get Dan’s input, as it’s no BS, as I like to say, no fluff, so it’s always good. But again, if you want to reach out to Dan and talk about private lending in Costa Rica and how it works, I think he’s also, he looks for people with cash that are looking to lend as well, and he kind of acts as a middleman.
So reach out to him. All of his contact details are there down in the description down below. And I can say that Dan has my seal of approval, dude.
He’s a great guy and does good business here. So yeah. And remember, guys, if you’re looking to do anything here in Costa Rica, you want to invest, hear about some of our projects, you’re looking to build and want help project managing, we do about 15 homes a year here.
I mean, we’re pretty busy at the moment, but we can always take a few more in design. I think we have about 12 in construction at the moment that’ll finish this year. We try and keep everything on time, on budget.
