# TicaLuxury > TicaLuxury is a buyer's advocate for luxury real estate in Costa Rica, partnered with Sotheby's International Realty and the country's leading agencies. It gives international buyers a single advocate on their side, free of charge, whose reach spans the entire luxury market — every partner agency’s inventory, de-duplicated and verified — and supports them from neighborhood selection through to closing. It works for the buyer across the whole market, not as a single-listing portal. Key facts: - What it is: a buyer's advocate partnered with Sotheby's International Realty and Costa Rica's leading agencies, not a pass-through directory. Buyers work with one TicaLuxury advocate across all partner agencies — free of charge — rather than contacting each brokerage separately. - Coverage: aggregates, verifies, and de-duplicates the full luxury market across its partner agencies, so buyers get one complete, accurate view of what is available. - Market: luxury residential and investment real estate across Costa Rica (Escazú, Santa Ana, Valle del Sol, Guanacaste, Tamarindo, and more). - Audience: international buyers, expats, and investors purchasing or renting in Costa Rica. - Business model: free to buyers and multilingual (English, Spanish, French). TicaLuxury is paid a referral fee by its partner agency only when a buyer it introduces successfully closes — so it is not tied to any single listing. It also helps buyers connect with vetted partners for [legal due diligence, residency, and closings](https://ticaluxury.com/legal) (through its partnership with the PBP law firm, which is backed by regional firm BLP Legal) and financing. - Languages: English, Spanish, and French. Canonical English URLs are listed below (prefix the path with `/es` or `/fr` for the other locales). - Catalog: a complete, de-duplicated view of ~1,833 active luxury listings across Costa Rica’s agencies. - Contact: info@ticaluxury.com ## Why TicaLuxury - [How TicaLuxury works](https://ticaluxury.com/how-it-works): one advocate on your side for the entire Costa Rica luxury market — the model, the process, and answers to common questions. - One advocate, whole market: instead of building ties with several boutique agencies, buyers start with a single advocate who covers every partner agency’s inventory, free of charge, and works on the buyer’s behalf — not as an extra layer, but to remove the work of dealing with a dozen agencies. - Curated and verified: listings are aggregated, de-duplicated, and verified, so each property appears once with accurate details and pricing. - Partners: official, permission-based partnerships with Costa Rica's leading luxury brokerages — Sotheby's International Realty, Luxury Living Costa Rica, Neocasa, and Escazú Properties — so the agency relationships a buyer might otherwise build directly are already TicaLuxury's. (These are listing and referral partnerships, not a franchise or brand membership.) - [Legal support for buyers](https://ticaluxury.com/legal): through TicaLuxury's partnership with the PBP law firm — a Costa Rica firm backed by the regional powerhouse [BLP Legal](https://blplegal.com/), one of Central America's leading legal groups — buyers get bilingual counsel for title due diligence, bilingual contracts, notary-led closings, residency, and corporate or tax setup. PBP does not run escrow directly; when escrow is needed, they coordinate with an independent, SUGEF-registered fiduciary. The introduction is free; buyers only engage counsel if they choose to. TicaLuxury earns a referral fee when a buyer engages PBP. ## Browse properties - [All luxury listings](https://ticaluxury.com/properties): search and filter every active property by type, price, location, and bedrooms. - [New builds & pre-construction](https://ticaluxury.com/properties/new-builds): newly built and off-plan luxury developments. - [Mortgage calculator](https://ticaluxury.com/calculadora): estimate Costa Rica mortgage payments, closing costs, and USD/CRC totals. - [Contact](https://ticaluxury.com/contact): reach the TicaLuxury team for help finding or listing a property. ## Locations - [Santa Ana](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/santa-ana): luxury real estate in Santa Ana, Costa Rica (450 listings). - [Escazu](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/escazu): luxury real estate in Escazu, Costa Rica (437 listings). - [Tamarindo](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/tamarindo): luxury real estate in Tamarindo, Costa Rica (91 listings). - [Guachipelin](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/guachipelin): luxury real estate in Guachipelin, Costa Rica (90 listings). - [Valle Del Sol](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/valle-del-sol): luxury real estate in Valle Del Sol, Costa Rica (83 listings). - [Jaboncillos](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/jaboncillos): luxury real estate in Jaboncillos, Costa Rica (63 listings). - [Lindora](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/lindora): luxury real estate in Lindora, Costa Rica (63 listings). - [Villa Real](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/villa-real): luxury real estate in Villa Real, Costa Rica (62 listings). - [Santa Cruz](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/santa-cruz): luxury real estate in Santa Cruz, Costa Rica (58 listings). - [Nosara](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/nosara): luxury real estate in Nosara, Costa Rica (52 listings). - [Piedades](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/piedades): luxury real estate in Piedades, Costa Rica (37 listings). - [San Rafael de Escazu](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/san-rafael-de-escazu): luxury real estate in San Rafael de Escazu, Costa Rica (36 listings). - [Laureles](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/laureles): luxury real estate in Laureles, Costa Rica (35 listings). - [Bosques De Lindora](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/bosques-de-lindora): luxury real estate in Bosques De Lindora, Costa Rica (34 listings). - [Santa Teresa](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/santa-teresa): luxury real estate in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica (34 listings). - [Puntarenas](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/puntarenas): luxury real estate in Puntarenas, Costa Rica (30 listings). - [Cerro Alto](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/cerro-alto): luxury real estate in Cerro Alto, Costa Rica (29 listings). - [Curridabat](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/curridabat): luxury real estate in Curridabat, Costa Rica (29 listings). - [San Antonio](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/san-antonio): luxury real estate in San Antonio, Costa Rica (28 listings). - [Hacienda Del Sol](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/hacienda-del-sol): luxury real estate in Hacienda Del Sol, Costa Rica (27 listings). - [Cabo Velas](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/cabo-velas): luxury real estate in Cabo Velas, Costa Rica (26 listings). - [Country Club](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/country-club): luxury real estate in Country Club, Costa Rica (24 listings). - [Cóbano](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/cobano): luxury real estate in Cóbano, Costa Rica (21 listings). - [Dominical](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/dominical): luxury real estate in Dominical, Costa Rica (20 listings). - [San Jose](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/san-jose): luxury real estate in San Jose, Costa Rica (20 listings). - [Uvita](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/uvita): luxury real estate in Uvita, Costa Rica (20 listings). - [Cerro Real](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/cerro-real): luxury real estate in Cerro Real, Costa Rica (18 listings). - [Tres Rios](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/tres-rios): luxury real estate in Tres Rios, Costa Rica (17 listings). - [Alajuela](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/alajuela): luxury real estate in Alajuela, Costa Rica (16 listings). - [La Hacienda](https://ticaluxury.com/locations/la-hacienda): luxury real estate in La Hacienda, Costa Rica (16 listings). ## Guides & market insights - [Blog index](https://ticaluxury.com/blog): expert articles on buying, investing, and living in Costa Rica. - [Atenas, Costa Rica: The Perfect Climate Town for Expats](https://ticaluxury.com/blog/atenas-costa-rica-expat-real-estate-guide): Nicknamed "the city with the best climate in the world," Atenas offers expats and investors a rare combination of spring-like weather, mountain scenery, and au… - [Santa Teresa Real Estate: Surf, Style & Smart Investing](https://ticaluxury.com/blog/santa-teresa-real-estate-surf-style-investing): Santa Teresa has evolved from a sleepy surf village into one of Costa Rica's most sought-after real estate destinations.
