For all of you giving Matt sh** about what he said at the end of this video..... WELL, I am not half as nice as he is. First off, as he explained below, he was making a joke. But forget that. You 'tards who wouldn't use him or mock him because you think he is a Harris fan can say 'ciao' to me as well. Matt is a friend of mine regardless. I don't really choose friends based on who they vote for, what their religion is, or the color of their skin or what's in their bank account. My friends have character, integrity, personality etc. You tell me everything I need to know with your very narrow tribe mentality. I am ride or die with the folks I circle myself around and trust me, my circle is large, not defined by your identity politics. If you wouldn't do business with Matt because of your 'assumptions', which technically, you got wrong,,, not only have you lost a great, HONEST, Tamarindo contact but another one in La Fortuna as well. ciao
Michael and I probably should have mentioned that the majority of my business is helping people outside of Tamarindo; if you want to find a quiet community there are plenty of options in this area that are absolutely different than Tamarindo; send me an email!
@CostaRicaMatt Actually relistened and I do like the area you concentrate in, I'm going to watch what this year brings, almost pulled the trigger on an A frame you were selling a year or so back, I've done my research and you my friend are safe, I'm hoping for a 30% drop by next year....could be 18 mos
I am interested in the potential for a lifestyle community co-op that provides an opportunity to move around from the beach to the farm perhaps with a senior persons bias
An earthship network that tie together natural markets and ultimately provide an infrastructure for a nomadic modern senior citizen lifestyle, think gyms, farms and hostels tied together synergistically and rely on the users to facilitate the movement of food from farm to beach
Just my opinion- buying a condo on the beach or in San Jose is a big gamble. There are so many new ones being built, it would be difficult to sell yours if you needed to, for a good price. People typically want new. And then you have to worry about hoa fees in your condo building- see what's happening in Miami with HOAs now requiring home owners to pay $50k bc of deferred maintenance on an older building. ❤
I 100% agree, with a caveat - it's a big gamble *at peak pricing. Buyers can and should insist on getting historic data on pricing for condos sold previously, and yes, if they decide to buy something way above the historic trend there's that risk. I do think you can find options where 1) pricing isn't that crazy compared to the historic trend, and 2) the HOA has managed maintenance and repairs well. Thank you for watching and commenting!
Here in the US a lot of companies, even tech companies, are requiring three to four days a week back in the office. For tens of millions of workers the option of working remote from Costa Rica is over. A lot of people are also "locked in" with the historically low interest rates from a few years back. And not getting into partisan politics, but the US is overdue for a major recession based on historical timelines.
Thanks for watching and commenting; I couldn't agree more re: your last sentence. As a completely amateur observer of economic cycles, my gut feels like we've been "due" for an inevitable downturn and I've personally been surprised it hasn't happened yet.
Have followed both you and Matt for years ( really appreciate the information you both provide ) glad to see you are able to put out video together. It is easy not to like Trump , but i think Matt is giving too much credibility to the crap we are spoon fed by the mainstream media. Trump has alot of very smart people on his team that were Democrats and like many of us had to give up on them because of their absolute incompetence which includes their woke agenda.
This had nothing to do with my opinion on Trump. Was filmed Nov 4 and I wanted to make a joke that no matter who is elected, people will be disappointed.
Paul, curious, we hear woke used a lot these days. When you say "woke agenda" which specific Democratic policies are you referring to? To me Biden's four years were pretty much an extension of Obama's policies. And Harris campaigned with pretty much the same policies as Biden/Harris.
@@CostaRicaMatt Hey Matt you are entitled to your opinion ( joke or not ) and I apologize for misunderstanding. I was just putting my thoughts out there and no one needs to agree with me. Thank you for all the information you have provided over the years.
Thx for the vid. Great stuff. People need to be able to take a joke.That was a good one. The peeps that feel hurt need to wake up and smell the coffee and then go outside and smell he roses and realize that’s what matters in life not loving and pledging an oath to politicians. They are all snakes and don’t care about you your family or the country as a whole.
Housing in Tamarindo is a nightmare...!! Luckily, Matt is able to find people with tons of money. And drive up prices further. Costa is no longer affordable. And the food is really not that good. Compared to MX, not even close foodwise.
What's interesting about this, is that the vast majority of folks who voted Trump aren't even huge fans. There's a reason why a lot of democrats moved over.. Musk, RFK, Tulsi, Vivek, Rogan, ME,,, and hundreds of thousands of others. We are skeptical of Trump but after the Democratic party was hijacked by the fringe woke a few years back... there was just no other option but to move over. The 50's, please???
This was filmed Nov 4, I was trying to make a joke that I felt no matter who was elected, people will be disappointed. This is the fifth election I've watched from abroad and one of the things I feel is pretty obviously consistent is that people are disappointed by who they elect.
Dont believe the hype of overpriced and dangerous costa rica. There are much better choices in Nicaragua. Leon granada san juan del sur. If you like the gringo area Tola.

One has to only look at the Buffet Indicator to know what is coming. Market value to GDP is 208%. Q2-Q3 in 2025 will be a real treat.
Great info conversation 👍
Mucho Gracias for watching

Due to the 150k investor visa limit I guess people search for real estate above this, otherwise they would maybe buy cheaper.
Housing in Tamarindo is a nightmare...!! Luckily, Matt is able to find people with tons of money. And drive up prices further. Costa is no longer affordable. And the food is really not that good. Compared to MX, not even close foodwise.
So, it's Matt... good to know.
Mexico no human rights, for me more important than food.
If he thought Kamala would be a better choice I wouldn't trust him to do business with
whatever... it is like saying I would not listen to my favorite rock band if I found out they were democrats or republicans ... gee
Right Wingers are obsessed with keeping things like they were in the 1950's..!
Lamest statement ever!
Exactly.

I'm favoured $130k every 4 weeks! I now have a good house and can afford anything and also support my family>
Yeah, since meeting expert Debra, I now agree that with an expert managing your portfolio, the rate of profit high, with less risk.
I will advise you stop trading on your own if you keep losing. And i don't trade on my own anymore, I always required help and assistance
😱Sounds familiar, I have heard her names on several occasions.. And both her success stories on wall street journey!
She's my family personal Broker and also a Broker to many families here in the United states, she is a licensed Broker.
Alright thanks for the recommendation but how do I reach her?
Well matt shit the bed...saying everyone is gonna be disappointed w the next president...chow
Matts a dumbass..

@@CostaRicaMatt Dude don't apologize for what you believe, thanks for the info, PEACE!!!
true words. totally agree.
I’m not.
Costa is way overpriced. California of central America. Much safer and feel free in Nicaragua. Maybe try it after the Costa Rica bs.
FREE? With Ortega as your dictator? please. **That said, I do love Nicaragua.
Shocked about donkeys dancing on the ice, going to dictatorships everybody would like to leave.
Dont believe the hype of overpriced and dangerous costa rica. There are much better choices in Nicaragua. Leon granada san juan del sur. If you like the gringo area Tola.
F Costa Rica goto Nicaragua
really? F Costa Rica? How about F Ortega? *try again.
