How much do I have to invest in a property to be eligible for residency?

To apply for Costa Rican residency, you must invest in a property of at least $150,000 USD. If your property costs less than this amount, there are other legal ways to make you eligible.

• Appraise your property if it is valued above $150,000 USD (this may increase your property taxes a lot if your property is undervalued)
• Add more construction to the property if it’s valued less than $150,000 USD

A good residency lawyer would be able to help you navigate these situations.
