The company provides comprehensive, turnkey solutions including marketing, sales and rentals of high-end Costa Rica homes, estates and mansions. “When we started listing million dollar homes in Costa Rica, other REALTORS® laughed at me!” Yali says with a smile; others never imagined luxury real estate becoming such a big and important business in Costa Rica. But the team members at Costa Rica Luxury are experts at what they do. “We also work with a unique group of top-level experts such as engineers, landscapers, interior decorators and home remodeling experts,” she says. “They’re a backup team, always ready to help.”
