SYNDICATIONBy Xinia Salazar for the Easy Times
When you purchase Heredia property or a property anywhere in Costa Rica, there are always a lot of things forgotten by all parties. A Costa Rica real estate purchase always involves a lot of details and you will find out about most of these details when its too late.
When you have a water leak and your living room is flooded, you don’t know where the main water valve is located so you can turn it off or when you find out you have an electrical problem, you cannot find the breaker box.
They’re all simple things and you can save yourself a lot of headaches because most of the time you run into trouble unnecessarily because you don’t know the property well.
Buying Costa Rica real estate is not so easy to do it on your own, especially when you are making the purchase without the involvement of an experienced Costa Rica realtor. When My wife and I drove to Nativa Resort a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that on the new highway to Caldera, the Autopistas del Sol concessionary was doing landslide prevention different ways.
Landslide protection and prevention techniques
Autopistas del Sol sprayed liquid concrete on the hillside and drilled pipes into the mountains to take the water out and through the concrete, when they re-did part of the highway at the Sabana and Escazu turnoff. This was the first time I saw this technique used in Costa Rica, though I have seen is used in Spain and Canary Islands quite a bit. They are also using a way different technique a little past the beautiful town of Atenas, where they are now making incredible use of the large rocks they took out before they put the pavement in.
