The People Behind Your Move

Where Most Buyers Begin
By the time a property hits a public portal, the best terms are often gone — and the listings you see were never the full picture. The most compelling opportunities in Guanacaste change hands quietly: motivated sellers, estate sales, foreign-owner exits, and developer inventory that never reaches an MLS.
Knowing which beach town fits your goals, what a fair price actually is, and which homes sit on clean title takes someone on the ground. That's where our off-market opportunities, detailed area guides, and buyer resources come in — the context behind the listing, not just the listing.
See What's Off-Market →We believe a great purchase begins long before the offer — with knowledge most buyers never get access to, and an advocate who answers only to you.

What Makes Us Different
We live and work on this coast. We know the neighborhoods, the micro-markets, and the quiet realities behind each beach town — block by block.
Explore Area Guides →We track motivated sellers, estate sales, and off-market homes you'll never find on a public portal — and bring them to you first.
See How We Source Opportunities →We represent buyers — never sellers. Our only job is to protect your money and your interests, from first question to closing.

Founder & CEO
Twenty-plus years on every side of real estate — building one of Orlando’s fastest-growing companies in the pre-construction boom, founding (and selling) the national buyer-education platform YAERD.org, operating vacation rentals since 2007, and owning in Guanacaste since 2010. Phil built CRPI on one belief: experience matters most before the contract is signed.
