Let’s Talk About Concession

This is a concession property, which is how beachfront ownership legally works in most of Costa Rica.

In Costa Rica, the first 200 meters from the high-tide line is called the Maritime Zone.
Within that zone, properties are generally concession-based, not titled fee simple.
This is not unusual or shady it’s simply the legal framework used by the Costa Rican government to regulate beach areas.
Foreigners can legally obtain concession rights, typically by setting up a Costa Rican corporation (your lawyer will handle ths in a way you are fully protected).
The property has an active, legal concession, all permits and taxes are up to date, and it’s ready to transfer.

Hundreds of beachfront homes across Costa Rica from Tamarindo to Santa Teresa are held this exact same way. It’s safe, legal, and well understood by local attorneys.
