Lee is one of our favorite happy clients! When she first came through Costa Rica Property Finder, she was looking at buying property in Uruguay, South and Central America, and Costa Rica was just one country on her list.
When we contacted her we walked through our patented Client Dream Property Finder process to learn exactly what she was looking for. She explained she wanted a great lot near a waterfall with an ocean view for under $100,000. That she is considering retiring in the next 10 years and wants to build her dream retirement home where she can enjoy it, have enough room for the family who will certainly be visiting and that it is also a great long term investment.
Using our Dream Property Finder patented software program, we were able to put together a list of near perfect properties for her to compare before she even set foot in Costa Rica.
Furthermore, she followed our recommendations and made what was the smartest move of all time; She opened an escrow account and funded it with a deposit BEFORE knowing which property she was going to buy.
Why did she do this? Because the hottest deals have multiple offers, and the offer that comes along with a deposit in an escrow account gets accepted 87% of the time! It’s a lot like getting pre-approved for a home loan BEFORE you go looking for your home purchase. Simply put, offers that come in from people with deposits in Escrow, and pre-approvals get accepted WAY more than offers without.
Take a look at her reaction when she heard the news that HER offer beat out all the other
competitive offers because she had the deposit money already in escrow;
