In Costa Rica the properties you find on the Internet are typically owned by foreigners. This particular type of Seller uses the conventional method, formally listing their properties and paying a standard commission. Americans and Europeans utilize the Internet searching the area of interest as an education tool to view properties and price compare.

We have set up many networks of Costa Rica people who offer us hundreds of premier properties in all the desirable locations. These properties are listed at Costa Rica prices and non-standard commissions. We pass the savings on to our clients. We offer listed properties as well and network closely with associate Realtors. However we believe our clients should have options.

The Costa Rican people prefer selling and buying properties within their own community. They offer a commission to the person(s) who introduce(s) a bonafide buyer to a prospective property. The properties are offered at lower prices than properties listed with traditional real estate companies.
Commissions are non-standard and this is how the structure works.

1. Commissions are based on closed sales transactions.

2. The Seller pays WindStar Real Estate a non-standard commission agreed upon by the Principal and the Agent.

3. When a third party is involved, the Seller pays this person a commission.

4. When a third party is involved, WindStar Real Estate pays the third party a commission based on our gross commission.

5. Many times there is not a third party involved.

Foreign buyers who buy direct from the Costa Rican people without professional representation will find they will be given a price three times or more than market value for the same property.
