Why is a home on the Villa Real beachfront page?

The listing says beachfront or oceanfront, or it is marked ocean view. Some cards use beachfront or oceanfront in the text. The rest are ocean view. Ocean view is not the same as being on the sand.

Does “beachfront” mean ordinary fee-simple title?

Not always. “Beachfront” is often concession land, with a different clock and a different set of rules. Your attorney is the one who reads the file.

Can a foreign buyer purchase beachfront or ocean-view property?

You do not need residency to buy most titled property. Concession land follows a different set of rules. A local attorney you hire opens due diligence before an offer goes to escrow.

What should I budget beyond the asking price?

Budget roughly 4% on the buy side for transfer taxes, stamps, notary, and attorney — plus any HOA estoppel. HOAs, a caretaker, insurance, and utilities are the real carrying cost.

Do I have to be in Costa Rica to buy?

You do not need to be in the country for every step, but you should be on a video call for the ones that matter.
