Tenants in Common Land Investments

I'm pleased to be able to offer several exciting investment opportunities in the Playa San Miguel area. The Tenancy in Common Investment Fund provides fractionalized ownership of prime properties with very attractive entry points ranging from $13,000 to $60,000.

 
         
 
Playa San Miguel
The properties being offered are located in the Playa San Miguel area on the Pacific Ocean coast of Costa Rica in Guanacaste Province. The area has an abundance of wild life and precious hard wood and overlooks the pristine Playa San Miguel beach. The 6 mile long gold sandy beach is spectacular. Ocean water temperature is 85 degrees and there are no hurricanes. Commercial commuter planes fly in from San Jose twice daily.

Corozalito 100 Acres - 64 lots
100 acres overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Corozalito, Costa Rica. 10 lots have mountain and river views. 12 lots are riverside, 36 lots have ocean views from a high ridge at about 200 feet elevation, 6 premium lots have ocean view from 300 feet elevation. 3 high ridge ocean view spots on the property are suited for 2 story spectacular condos or homes. The property has 40 acres as wild forest common area. The property in front drops off sharply from the ridge so no one will block the view. Roads and utilities are needed. The property has a river, 2 freshwater springs, a waterfall, rolling hills and lemon trees. There are 2 roads to the beach; one walking and one driving. The pink sand beach has 40 palm trees and a large grassland park giving permanent beach privacy; no buildings or neighbors (see air photos). A home owner here could get off the commuter plane and walk home. The property is to the right as the plane lands. Plans are underway to construct high-end high-visibility condo development next to the airstrip. With commuter planes landing twice a day, tourists can get off the plane and walk to the model condominium.

San Miguel South - 72 Lots
There are 50 lots with mountains and river view. 14 lots on the main road to the beach, 2 lots at 100 feet elevation, 6 lots at 200 feet elevation. The 8 elevated lots have clear ocean views (the elevated view of the ocean picture is from lot #15). Lots run from 1000 square meters (1/4 acre) to 6000 square meters (1.5 acres), electric service is on the road frontage, Lots 1-14 are cleared, the rest are 100% tropical forest. It's an easy walk or bike (4/10 of a mile) to a long white sand beach bordered by a mango farm. A small air strip and village are within 1 mile and a few nice $250,000 condos are nearby.
 
San Miguel North - 79 Acres
The San Miguel North lot is between the San Miguel South property and the Loring Condo project. It has rolling hills of wooded 79 acres facing the Pacific Ocean. This property is suitable for ocean view single lot development or hotel and has 400 feet of road frontage on the coastal road and an alternate frontage on a public road in the back of the lot facing the mountains.
 
San Miguel Mountain - 125 Acres
This 500,000 square meter parcel overlooks the Pacific Ocean in San Miguel, Costa Rica. Fully developed it will have about 60 lots with mountain and river views and 50 premium lots with panoramic ocean views. Another option would be a high-end condo/hotel with clouds at eye level. Scheduled commercial planes from San Jose arrive twice a day at Corozalito. It is an easy drive to the beach. The San Miguel beach is over 6 miles long with golden sand and palm trees. A few local restaurants are nearby. Because of the airport this area is easily accessible and can be marketed as a 12 month year-around vacation area while most of the rest of Costa Rica is impossible to drive during the rainy season.
 
Tenants in Common (TIC) Land Investment Strategy
Investors buy a 50% interest in a lot currently owned by the investment fund and managed by the management company. At this point the investor and the fund are Tenants in Common owners of the lot. The lot stays undeveloped for 3 - 5 years, then is sold with the profits divided between the TIC Investment Fund and the investor. TIC investors maintain the first right of refusal to buy the lot at a discount to market.
 
A 10% down payment holds your lot, locks the price, and is 100% refundable until closing. Property titles are insured and guarantied by Stewart Title. The management company manages the property, pays all bills including taxes, insurance and closing costs until the property is sold. Upon sale, the management compnay receives a 1% management fee and the expenses and net profits are split according to percentage of ownership.
 
Emergency Exit Provision:
The Investment Fund offers its TIC investors an "Emergency Out" feature and will buy back 100% of the original investment after a 60-day notice. Please keep in mind that you would lose any property appreciation by taking advantage of the Emergency Out feature.
 
Sample TIC Investment: An investor buys a 50% share in a $38,000 lot for $19,000. If they decide to sell after 3 years of appreciation at $90,000, the net gains are split between the investor and the Investment Fund after a 1% management fee of $900 and sharing of all expenses.
