## Key facts
- Location: Costa Ballena, between Uvita and Dominical (~20 min each), above Playa Hermosa de Uvita
- Not Guanacaste: Playa Hermosa de Uvita is in Costa Ballena (Puntarenas, South Pacific),
  not Playa Hermosa in Guanacaste
- What you buy: a titled homesite in a gated community of 12 on 18 acres. You buy the land
  and build your own house; no finished home is included in the lot price. Not a resort.
- Foreign ownership: same rights as Costa Rican citizens; titled inland land, none of it concession
- Title: fee simple (titulado), registered at the Costa Rica National Registry - not concession land
- Infrastructure complete: gated entry, underground electric, ASADA potable water, fiber internet, engineered drainage
- Views: Pacific Ocean and Whale's Tail (Marino Ballena National Park); jungle and creek settings
- Villa Del Cielo: first completed and sold home (4BR/4.5BA, 4,450 SF, infinity pool, sleeps 9)
- Short-term rental: legal and optional. Farmstead Collection does not operate a rental or
  property-management program, takes no revenue split, and does not manage bookings, guests
  or housekeeping. Owners rent it themselves or through a local management company.
- Closing costs ~3.5-4% split 50/50; SUGEF-regulated escrow on all transactions
- Payment: USD wire, Bitcoin, or stablecoins (USDC, USDT) accepted; ask how deposit and closing work
- Annual costs: property tax 0.25% of registered value; community fee $150-$350/month by lot
  size (road upkeep, landscaping, gate); no special assessments or membership dues
- Building: architectural guidelines apply; bring your own architect (subject to review) or use
  the team that built Villa Del Cielo (optional, not required). Budget ~$200-$300 per sq ft.
- Design philosophy: Sovereign Rest - homes designed for sleep, regulation, beauty, presence and gathering
- Sold direct by the owner-developer; every price is published rather than quoted on request
- Residency: Costa Rica's Inversionista (investor residency) threshold is $200,000 since
  July 14, 2026, when Law 9996's reduced $150,000 rate expired. Applications filed on or
  before July 14, 2026 still qualify at $150,000 (eligibility is set by filing date). Lots priced
  at $200,000 or more meet the threshold on land price alone; any lot qualifies once construction lifts registered
  value past $200,000. Verify current requirements with an immigration attorney.
