Andy (in the hat), developer and sales team, on the ground in Costa Rica. June 2026.

You know this email.

Every week. The strongest deals from 100,000 buyers and sellers. Curated by someone who has spent thirty-five years in these markets and has no interest in wasting your time. No commissions. No agenda. Just honest intel and direct access to the people behind the deals.

That is not changing. What is changing is the scope.

Owning real estate in America is getting expensive. Not just to buy. To hold. Some markets run different math. No property tax. No capital gains. A fraction of the annual carry. We have been in those markets. We know the people. We travel. We explore. We report. Not the hype. The truth.

The referral fees and sponsorships cover the travel. You pay nothing for the access. But if a deal does not hold up we say so. We have walked away from fees before. We will do it again. Our only job is to point you toward potential deals we would do explore and experienced location contacts we would use with our own money.

This week. Eight domestic deals and three from Costa Rica.

Before you go. We sat down last week with one of the top developers on Costa Rica's north Pacific coast. A member-only presale opportunity is coming. Not ready to share everything yet. But soon.

Reply INT — Costa Rica.

More soon,

Andy

◆ SCOUT SELECT

Costa Rica | Playa Flamingo • $410-420K (Bottomline Offer)

The Signal: Contract assignment on a 154 sqm three-bedroom at Acquarello Residences — original buyer secured pre-construction pricing below market and is assigning at $410-420K bottomlin. That is just enough to cover sales costs. Current comps estimate $500-$510k value, putting the buyer $90K–$100K below estimated fair value. Delivery estimated Q4 2027 with the building already well underway.

The Highlights: Assignment contract · 3 bed / 3 bath / 154 sqm / 1 garage · HOA $395/mo · Ask $440K · Est. fair value $505K–$540K · Equity at signing $65K–$100K · Delivery Q4 2027 · Advanced construction phase · Foreign buyer eligible · No capital gains tax · Direct title available

The Edge: The building is in full development. This is not a paper contract on a dirt lot. The original buyer got in early at below-market pricing and is walking away from the equity to cover costs. That gap is the opportunity. Andy knows the deal, almost got in on the launch, has reviewed the construction status and the fair value comps before attaching Scout Select to this one.
