At the moment the pack lists no properties for sale here, so this guide explains the zone first. When there are enough listings, this page shows above what is offered by type. Buying here is a long-term decision, so it helps to understand the setting before comparing properties.
What people buy here
Because no property types are listed for sale at the moment, it is not possible to say which buyer profiles dominate. Several are worth considering as listings appear.
- A home to live in, if you plan to settle in a rural, coastal Caribbean district.
- A lot to build on, where you control the design but also the permits and utilities.
- A farm, for someone who wants working land.
- A property to rent out later, which counts as investing and depends on demand you should verify yourself.
Which of these makes sense depends on what is actually listed.

Property types
No property types are currently listed for sale in this district, so there is nothing specific to compare. When listings appear, this page shows them by type above this guide.
Whatever the type, a few points apply to every purchase: the physical condition of the property, legal access from a public road, the source of drinking water, and any recurring fees. Ask for these in writing and compare them against what you see on a visit, since details vary from one property to another.
Why buy here
The district sits in the canton of Siquirres, in the Caribbean region of Costa Rica, and it is coastal. That matters for the rules on land near the shore, covered in the checks below.
In a straight line, the canton seat of Siquirres is 22.1 km (13.7 mi) away, downtown San José is 81.2 km (50.5 mi) and Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO) is 93.3 km (58.0 mi). These are straight-line figures, not driving distances. Even so, they show that the district is within reach of the capital and the main international airport.
What to check before buying
- A title search at the National Registry (Registro Nacional): who owns the property and whether it carries mortgages, liens or annotations.
- A registered survey plan (plano catastrado) that matches the title and what you see on the ground, including boundaries, size and access.
- A land-use certificate (uso de suelo) from the Municipalidad de Siquirres and, where one exists, the canton's zoning plan, which says what can be built.
- Property tax (Law 7509) and municipal services paid up to date.
- The maritime-terrestrial zone (Law 6043): the 200-metre strip from the ordinary high-tide line. The first 50 metres are public and the other 150 are only granted as municipal concessions, not owned outright. Check whether the land falls inside it.
- For land to build on, written water availability (AyA or the local ASADA) and electricity, plus permits from the local authority.
Getting around
The district borders Siquirres, Pacuarito and El Cairo, plus Batán in the canton of Matina and Río Jiménez in the canton of Guácimo. Its position between these areas shapes how you would reach services and neighboring towns.
Inside the district, the official villages include Nueva Esperanza, Barra Parismina, Boca Pacuare, Boca Parismina, Caño Blanco, Dos Bocas and Suerre, among others. Real travel time depends on the hour and the state of the road, so test the route at the time of day you would normally use it.
How to buy
A purchase usually starts with comparing several properties and their asking prices, then working with a licensed agent who knows the area. Agencies and agents with listings in the zone appear further down this same page.
Next, a Costa Rican notary handles the public deed and the transfer, which pays the transfer tax (Law 6999). Before investing, ask for the full closing-cost breakdown before signing, and have the title search and survey plan reviewed first. Foreigners can own titled property in Costa Rica with the same rights as citizens (Article 19 of the Constitution), with the exceptions the law sets.
