Homes for sale and rent

Find property in Costa Rica to buy, rent, or invest in. On Viva en CR you can browse houses, apartments, lots, farms, and commercial properties published by owners, agents, and agencies. Compare prices, location, photos, and features before you contact the advertiser directly.

Looking to live near the beach? Explore properties in Guanacaste, Puntarenas, and the Caribbean. If you prefer the city, look through San José, Heredia, and Alajuela. For mountain settings, larger land, or cooler weather, Cartago and places such as Turrialba are worth a look.

Each property has its own page with the details the listing includes. Depending on the ad, you may find bedrooms, bathrooms, parking, construction size, land size, amenities, photos, videos, and a map location. You can also save properties, share them, or open them later to compare them with other options.

The sale and rent catalogs are separate, so you can focus on what you actually want. Use the filters for currency, price range, bedrooms, or location, and switch between the catalog and the map to find properties in different parts of the country.

Where to look

🏝️ Choose an area for the way you want to live

Costa Rica has very different property markets. Guanacaste brings together places such as Tamarindo, Nosara, and Santa Cruz, with homes near the Pacific and busy tourist areas. Puntarenas runs along much of the Pacific coast, while Limón gathers Caribbean options. In the Central Valley you can find properties in San José, Heredia, and Alajuela, and toward Cartago there are mountain areas, larger lots, and cooler temperatures.

🏡 Compare more than the price

Two properties with similar prices can offer completely different things. For a house, look at bedrooms, bathrooms, parking, construction, and land. For an apartment, shared areas and the building itself can matter. For lots and farms, size, access, utilities, and location matter more. Viva en CR listings gather what each advertiser provides so you can compare several options before you write to them.

💰 Sale and rent are different searches

If you want to buy, open the for-sale catalog. If you need a place for a while or a vacation rental, use the rent catalog. Some ads show a monthly price and others a nightly price, depending on the property. Prices may be in colones or dollars, so check the currency and the period before you compare two listings.

📍 Use the map to understand the location

Location can change the value and the use of a property. Besides the catalog, you can browse listings on the map and see what is available around an area. Each page shows the location the advertiser provided and, when it is available, you can open it in a navigation app. Before a visit, confirm the address or the meeting point with the advertiser.

🌊 Beach, city, or mountains

Not every search starts with a province. You might want a house near the sea, an apartment near work, or a lot to build on later. Tamarindo and other Guanacaste communities are known for the Pacific; Central Valley areas concentrate city housing and services; and places such as Turrialba and other parts of Cartago offer mountain views and land outside the city centers. Start with the setting you want, then narrow by location.

🔎 Use filters to narrow the list

When there are many properties, filters keep you from opening ads that do not fit. Search by place or keyword, then narrow by sale or rent, currency, price, and bedrooms. If you do not have an area yet, start wide and compare regions. If you already know where you want to live, search the province, the canton, or the place name.

❤️ Save and share the properties you like

Finding a property usually means comparing several options. Save favorites to review later and share a listing by WhatsApp, Facebook, X, email, or a link. That helps you compare with a partner, family, partners, or anyone else in the decision. When one property stands out, contact the advertiser from the page or open WhatsApp directly.

💬 Talk directly with the person who published the ad

Each property belongs to an advertiser who may be the owner, an agent, or an agency. From the listing you can see their contact details and ask about availability, visits, terms, location, or anything else you need to confirm. Viva en CR is the meeting point between the person looking and the person listing; the negotiation, paperwork, and final sale or rental happen directly between them.

📋 Before you decide

Photos and the description are a good start, but a property deserves a closer look before any agreement. Confirm measurements, location, utilities, and any important feature with the advertiser. For a purchase, also check the paperwork with the right professionals. Viva en CR helps you discover, compare, and contact properties; the legal, financial, and technical review comes after you find an option you actually want.
