General Information:
📍 Location & Land
Location: Absolute prime spot in Jaco Beach, Costa Rica. Steps from the sand, within walking distance of resorts, nightlife, and amenities.
Land area: 863 m² (per plano catastrado).
Zoning: Residential use (per uso de suelo). Allows for apartments or multifamily units, which makes it attractive for redevelopment.
👉 Oceanfront land in Jaco is scarce. Raw beachfront lots often go $600–1,200 per m² depending on frontage and development potential. At ~863 m², that’s a land-only valuation of $520K–$1M USD.
🏡 Construction & Use
Existing multi-level concrete structure with:
Several open-plan areas (curved glass frontage, tiled floors).
Bedrooms and bathrooms (usage as apartments).
Swimming pool (needs renovation).
Condition: Solid bones (reinforced concrete & block), but interiors are outdated — would benefit from modern renovations.
Estimated construction area: ~350–400 m².
Replacement cost for concrete at Jaco standard: $800–1,200 per m². Current structure’s depreciated value = $250K–$350K.
⚖️ Total Value Estimate
Land: $520K–$1M
Construction: $250K–$350K
Total fair range: $750K – $1.2M USD
👉 The land carries the real value here. An investor could renovate the existing building into vacation rentals or clear for a condo/multifamily project, which Jaco’s zoning allows.
🚀 Investment Potential
Short-term: Renovate the pool + interiors → boutique rental units, generating strong Airbnb income (Jaco nightly rates: $150–400 depending on size/finish).
Long-term: Redevelop into apartments or mixed-use, capitalizing on beach frontage and high tourist demand.
Comparables: Oceanfront condos in Jaco often sell at $300K–$500K each, meaning redevelopment could multiply returns.
Loan Purpose:
The borrower will use the funds to update, renovate, and modernize the property, as shown in the photo below.
