Mixed-use developments combine multiple types of spaces within one development, typically blending residential, commercial, and office areas.
Vertical mixed-use developments combine different uses of space stacked on top of each other in a multi-story building. Retail spaces might be on the ground floor, office spaces on the second and third floors, and residential units above.
Horizontal mixed-use developments are spread out over a larger area, typically in a low-rise configuration, often where a shopping mall is adjacent to residential houses, or an office park with restaurants and cafes nearby.
Live/Work developments are where people can live and work in the same building, often ideal for individuals with small businesses, artists, or entrepreneurs who prefer a short commute.
Retail-centric mixed-use developments are a mix of residential and office space, that can be shopping malls with residential units or offices located on upper floors, or mixed-use developments with a strong emphasis on entertainment and dining.
Commercial and residential integration aims to create effective work-life balance in a single location, allowing for a flexible living environment, and are often found in urban or suburban areas.
Mixed-use developments can take many forms, depending on the location, goals, and needs of the community, but they all share the common goal of creating dynamic spaces that foster interaction, reduce the reliance on cars, and enhance the quality of life for residents and visitors alike.
Why Buy or Invest in New Real Estate Developments in Costa Rica.
Costa Rica has shown steady economic growth, with a growing middle class, increasing foreign investment, and a stable government. The country’s economy is diversified, with strong sectors like beachfront based tourism, technology, agriculture, and renewable energy.
Costa Rica remains one of the top travel destinations in the world, thanks to its natural beauty, biodiversity, and eco-tourism. With tourism continually increasing, real estate markets in popular destinations like San José, Tamarindo, Nosara, and Arenal are benefiting from both short-term rental demand (think vacation homes and Airbnb) and long-term investments.
Costa Rica is a prime destination for expatriates, retirees, and digital nomads, largely due to its affordable healthcare system, stunning landscapes, and high quality of life. Many people are drawn to the "Pura Vida" lifestyle, which translates to a relaxed and peaceful living experience. The influx of expats is driving demand for resort style homes, luxury housing, gated community living, both for rent and purchase.
Costa Rica is one of the most biodiverse places on the planet, and the government is very focused on preserving the environment and promoting sustainable developments at all levels. This focus makes real estate in eco-conscious developments especially appealing.
Many new luxury developments are being created with sustainable practices in mind, appealing to eco-conscious investors and residents alike, who are especially looking at off-plan projects to get in before prices rise..
Costa Rica offers a relatively low cost of living, especially when compared to North American and European markets. This is attractive both for those looking to retire or live there long-term and for investors looking to keep costs manageable while generating income from real estate purchased as income generating rentals.
