Costa Rica is well known as a peaceful country and where we are located there is very little crime. We currently employ many people, some who are on-site every day of the week we do recognize, as home owners, the need for peace of mind and security.

Our staff and employees keep a watchful eye out for any unauthorized activities in the area. If anyone were to even step on our developments we would be notified very quickly.

Despite the myth, some people are still concerned about squatters. This problem existed years ago and is all but wiped out. If a squatter did manage to settle on our properties for a long period of time, all our communities are staked and fenced and therefore, under Costa Rica's trespassing laws, any potential squatters would be removed immediately by the local police force. We have an excellent rapport with the local police and they are always on the lookout for any suspicious activities.

But again, it's extremely rare that we hear of any type of activities that require our existing security measures but, as in the country you live in, it's recommended to have an insurance policy on your home.
