Escazu Real Estate Rental in Costa Rica

Escazu, Costa Rica is one of the top location in the Costa Rica, Central valley location for foreigners looking for real estate to live or for rental.

The popularity Escazu amongst western foreigners started out about 25 years ago. Foreigners became attracted to this town due its close proximety to San Jose and the cheap prices of real estate. Today, Escazu is a very modernized are of Costa Rica with all of the conveniences of developed country like the United States, the Uk or Canada.

The prices in terms of rentals vary greatly but rarely will one find anything under $500 a month. A very nice looking condominium gated community with playground and pool area will cost on the average around $1,000 but can vary in prices from $600 to $2,000 a month.

In my search for a rental place to live in until I can find a real estate proerty to to purchase I have come across a few possible suitable location for a period of one year.

So far, I have had the chance to visit three possible rental real estate place in Costa Rica in the price range for a price conscious person. The first two places are not even worth mentioning but the last one could be of interest.

It is a furnished 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom condominum located close to Multiplaza, Escazu. The Multiplaza is the name of the shopping mall in Escazu which offers high end shops that sell their wares at "gringo" prices. In short, its the same as going to a shopping mall in the United States.

The listed price is $650 for a 1 year contract but it does also involve a $100 monthly condomnium fee. Another available option is to take a 6 month lease however, the rental price will go up to $750 per month and will still include the $100 monthly
condominium fee.

It includes 24 hour security, 2 parking spaces and ready for telephone hook ups.

The only drawback for me is that this Excazu Real Estate property for rent does not accept pets.

I have a few high end condominiums and apartments to visit Monday and I will keep everyone posted on how it went.

In the meanwhile, if there is a certain location you would like me to visit for you and take pictures of, just shoot me an e-mail with the location and contact information and I will post a blog report on it.

Until then,
