Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
I was borne in Puerto Rico, grew up in New York, and lived in Florida for 20 years before moving to Costa Rica. Me and my wife Susan decided to retired early, and moved to a place that was affordable and that offered a decent standard of living. After much research, we found Costa Rica to be the right place for us. We both like the country atmosphere, the quiet living and the small town concept. Susan is from Connecticut, and has family in Arkansas. We speak English and Spanish.
Why the Owner Chose Alajuela
We bought a three story building, which we remodeled, and decided that we can earn some income by renting one of the floors. So we prepare the second floor with all the living necessities for a couple with kids, to have a nice place to stay without spending an arm and a leg. Zarcero is cheap enough to do all you want and still be close to all the attractions.
