Santa Ana, Costa Rica: Own a home in a great location!
Santa Ana, safe and peaceful neighborhood
Santa Ana is so peaceful that it would seem a world away
from San José, but it is only some 20 minutes away by car. Less
than 5 minutes away are Multiplaza, Hotel Courtyard Marriott, Hotel
Real Intercontinental, Hospital CIMA, and several prestigious schools.
In the immediate vicinity you shall find FORUM, the largest office park
in the country, and many of the newest and most elegant shopping centers.
The Juan Santamaría Airport in Alajuela is closer to Santa Ana
than to San José, and the new projected highway to the beaches
passes right beside Santa Ana - so you will be only 45 minutes away
from the coast once the highway gets built. More
development is on the way in this vigorous growth area: at least another
large shopping center and office park are still in the blueprint stages.
Santa Ana, excellent climate
And Santa Ana has a truly enjoyable climate, sunnier and drier than the
rest of the Central Valley. As you can see from the photograph above,
Santa Ana has more trees and vegetation than everywhere in the city.
Santa Ana, area of high capital appreciation
The reasons for Santa Ana's growth in value, apart from its scenic beauty,
excellent climate, and strategic location, is its efficient city government.
The Municipalidad de Santa Ana has and enforces rules related to zoning,
garbage disposal, water treatment, and building codes more firmly than
other city government in Costa Rica. This means that despite becoming
fashionable and somewhat more populated, Santa Ana will never feel crowded
or get polluted. Zoning laws prohibit factories inside neighborhoods
(sadly common elsewhere in Costa Rica). Waste water treatment plants
have been mandatory for all new constructions since 1999. There are
also limits on the percentage of land that can be covered by construction
on all areas of Santa Ana. Building height cannot exceed 10 meters (30
feet). This effectively limits the amount of people living in a given
area.
Santa Ana, safe and timely investment
With regards to your investment, it means a greater likelihood of it retaining
or increasing its value over time - during the last two years, the value
of ready-to-build land in some neighborhoods of Santa Ana has risen
30% in each of those years. Unfortunately there is not an unlimited
supply of such land, so we invite you to come to our development and
choose a lot.
