Maria Chaves

With over 25 years of experience in customer service and a proven track record in real estate, I am dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of the property market. My career began in the United States with RE/MAX, where I honed my skills in real estate sales before returning to my home country, Costa Rica, 14 years ago. I spent over nine years focused on the Pacific side of Costa Rica, where I gained invaluable insights into the local market. To date, I have successfully completed more than 200 real estate transactions across the country.

Five years ago, I founded Caribbean Costa Rica Real Estate, a company dedicated to helping clients find their dream properties on the Caribbean side of Costa Rica. Since its inception, we have assisted numerous international clients in purchasing homes and investment properties in this beautiful and thriving region.

Our company is built on a foundation of expertise, supported by a highly trained and certified sales team that is committed to providing exceptional service throughout the entire property search process. To further ensure the best experience for our clients, we offer a team of trusted professionals, including attorneys, topographers, and engineers, who guide clients through the crucial due diligence process. Additionally, we collaborate with one of the most reputable construction companies in the region to ensure that every project is managed with integrity, professionalism, and attention to detail.

For clients overseas, we offer comprehensive services, including construction management and vacation rental management post-purchase, ensuring a seamless experience from start to finish. Our team’s extensive local knowledge and commitment to client satisfaction set us apart in the Caribbean real estate market. When you choose to work with Caribbean Costa Rica Real Estate, you are not only supported by a professional and dedicated team, but also by local experts who deeply understand the area, its laws, and its regulations—critical factors when investing in property.

I am passionate about helping clients make informed, successful investments in Costa Rica, and I look forward to assisting you in finding the perfect property in this beautiful country.
