A retired expat couple came back to Costa Rica last week to fight for their rights. They say they are fighting to get back their beautiful ocean view condominium taken from them over five years ago. The people who got the condo were experienced in their game, and the retired couple honest and unsuspecting.
This criminal court case paints a classic Costa Rica property swindle scenario. The expat couple came to Costa Rica to search for a retirement home near the beach to enjoy their lives after many years of hard work and saving a retirement fund. They trusted the people they met, including the attorneys they hired to look out for their interest. They invested about $300,000.
