Costa Rica real estate

I was born in Holland and came to Costa Rica in 1980 looking for new horizons. In 1997, I started working full time in real estate and founded GoDutch Realty in the same year. With 6 offices nationwide, we are one of the largest real estate companies in Costa Rica. In 1999, since we had no MLS here, there was a need for real estate agents work together, so we founded the American European Real estate Group (AE Costa Rica), MLS in Costa Rica where you can find over 1,500 properties.

Costa Rica Ambulance services

by Ivo Henfling

If you need ambulance services in Costa Rica to get to the hospital, make sure you know your Tico address so the ambulance will know where to find and will not get lost, or ask a local to give the ambulance the address. It's amazing how many people I sold a home in Costa Rica and it took them months to learn their address.
Because we don’t have any street addresses in Costa Rica, some of these hospitals might be a bit difficult for you to find, so it might be easier to call 911 and ask for an ambulance, so they will send a Red Cross ambulance.

Costa Rica Public Hospitals

By Ivo Henfling

If you have residency in Costa Rica you are obliged to be registered at the Caja Costarricense del Seguro Social or C.C.S.S. though this government mannaged health care system has long been broke. To see any doctors, you will need to start standing in line at 4:00 am to get attended and most of the time they’ll give you an appointment 6 months later. The system works though for those who do not have private insurance like I.N.S. or any other insurance company, you just need to be a bit patient and bring a book.
