Learn why a public notary attorney is essential when buying property in Costa Rica.
If you’re planning to buy real estate in Costa Rica, there’s one key legal figure you can’t overlook: the notary attorney.
In Costa Rica, only public notaries are authorized to register property transfers with the National Registry. This means that even if you’ve found the perfect property and agreed on the price, your purchase won’t be legally valid without a certified notary.
Your notary attorney will:
- Verify that the property is clear of liens
- Confirm that all taxes and municipal payments are up to date
- Draft and notarize the purchase agreement
- Ensure that the title is properly transferred and recorded
This is not just about paperwork — it’s about protecting one of the most important investments you’ll ever make.
