Dear Your Overseas Dream Home Reader,
What makes Costa Rica’s Southern Zone so special?
The incredible lifestyle benefits…the unique profit potential…
It’s all in this short video:

Savvy RETA members have already put their dollars in the Southern Zone.
And today at 1 p.m. ET, I’m launching a hot new RETA-only deal…
Members can lock down one of 18 villas—each with a small pool—nestled in the heart of the Southern Zone.
These 18 villas start at the low price of $218,000 and will go quickly. Our RETA-only price for one of the three-bed premium villas is just $245,000.
With these villas I expect potential gross rental yields of up to 13% and maybe even more.
And here’s why:
- Demand is driven by a shortage of rentals in the area, coupled with high demand from several different markets. Like I say, I expect 13% rental yields, which works out to an estimated $32,000 annually.
- The villas are close to the village of Ojochal, the “Culinary Capital of Costa Rica,” known for fine dining, gourmet shops, yoga, and more.
- These tropical villas each come with a small pool and stunning views of the Southern Zone’s jungle-clad mountains.
- There is almost nothing else like it in this region; it’s the perfect community for those U.S. and Canadian snowbirds and European vacationers who want to rent for a few weeks or months at a time.
- There are significant barriers to entry, meaning replicating a community like this is no easy task. The developer we’re dealing with has a serious competitive advantage borne out of being first to the game in the Southern Zone many years ago.
A Path of Progress has arrived in the Southern Zone, yet this part of Costa Rica is set to remain boutique and upmarket. It’s sandwiched between vast national parks where the mountains meet the ocean. Thanks to government restrictions, you can’t build large cookie-cutter development or condo towers. There will never be big resort hotels.
Yet, demand is growing…
Right now, folks who want a comfortable, modern rental in this price range or location are completely out of luck. They can go for a luxury home in the hills for $2,500 to $3,500 per week, but those are away from town and more expensive. Their only other option is the odd random, inexpensive, but very ordinary rental.
With the villas RETA members can lock down today, we hit that sweet spot right in the middle…
A two-bedroom home, in the jungle, very similar to this project, is running $1,650 a month if you take it on for more than the three months. Otherwise, it’s $136 a night or $2,100 per month.
Renting shorter-term, I figure you will be able to gross $32,000 in annual income from one of these homes once the villas are into their second or third year of rentals. That a gross yield of 13%.
Of course, you’ll have every reason to keep your villa exclusively to yourself. Every time I visit Ojochal I feel a sense of peace and calm…yet there is a certain vibrancy from the friendly people and natural splendor that surrounds you here.
Mountainside canopies are lush and verdant. Palm trees fringe wide curves of beach, and wild Pacific waters crash on rock and sand. Capuchin monkeys, toucans, sloths…and many other species will be your neighbors in this still “wild” area. At the same time, you have fine dining, gourmet markets, and other amenities that make for a very comfortable lifestyle.
If you’re a RETA member, you’ll have full access to this incredible deal at 1 p.m. ET today. So stay tuned…
If you’re not a member yet, the only way you can get in on this deal is to sign up for RETA now.
Wishing you good real estate investing,

Richard asks: Is any kind of financing available for the Southern Zone RETA deal? Ronan says: Hi Richard. Yes, there is an option to finance 21% to 26% through the developer (depending on the type of villa) at a rate of 5% to 7%, with the balance paid during construction.
