		<description><![CDATA[<DIV><FONT face="Comic Sans MS" color="#000000" size="2"><B>  <DIV style="FONT: bold 20px comic sans ms,arial; font-size-adjust: none; font-stretch: normal">&nbsp;</DIV></B></FONT><FONT face="arial" size="2">  <TABLE cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0" width="100%" border=0>  <TBODY>  <TR>  <TD><FONT face="arial" size="2">&nbsp;</FONT><FONT face="arial" size="2"><BR>In the 1992, when I arrive the for the first time in Costa Rica, I was looking for a place were find quiet, pristine nature, little impact due to the massive tourism and opportunity to develop some low impact activity in the tourism area. I did a two month tour of the country visiting all the areas that, in that moment were in the “top ten list”, and I remained a little disappointed about the situation I found, but a couple of weeks before leaving, I arrived in the Osa Peninsula and I fell in love with it! </FONT>  <P><FONT face="arial" size="2">The Osa Peninsula is the southern and farer area, from the capital city, of the country, with a very basic road web, no industrial plants, the lowest density of population and highest amount of rain per year, if you see it by the window of a small airplane, it looks like a vivid green diamond lying on the cobalt blue of the ocean!</FONT></P>  <P><FONT face="arial" size="2">The long list of: “not available” for everything that was a little bit more than the very basic services at disposition in the area, instead of scaring me about buying a land here, just increased the “ sense of challenge” and two years later, after returning for a time to Italy, to close the activity I run there,&nbsp; I was owning and running a really secluded lodge, build by myself and few local workers,&nbsp; in the upper Sierpe river, one of the more pristine location of the whole peninsula. Few years later I moved to P.to Jimenez where the company is located now, and where I am operating with the essential help of my wife Cecilia.</FONT></P>  <P><FONT face="arial" size="2">Cecilia began her activity in the real estates, more than 13 years ago, owning the first office in the peninsula with a wide area of activities, ranging form the tourism information, to the properties management, to the public fax service, the very first one in the Osa Peninsula!! Later she enter in the environmental movement aimed to save the pristine nature of the Peninsula from the savage exploitation of the forest by the timber industry and the construction of a high environmental impact mill, and the relative port, for a paper company. After this period, having won both battles!!, she returned to the real estates and properties management offering her wide knowledge of the norms and law that rule the buying and the ownership of a land in the different zones of the Osa Peninsula.</FONT></P>  <P><FONT face="arial" size="2">Thing are much more easy now, we have broadband internet connection in town and at the local drugstores is possible to find almost everything; big difference if you thing that in ’92 the stuff you could find at the “pulperias” were almost only: rice, beans, onions, battery for the torch, machetes and some kind of nails, and,&nbsp; even a regular phone line, was impossible to have, a cellular phone was present only in the movies and the word” internet”&nbsp; was unknown.<BR><BR>What remain the same are the incomparable beauty of the nature and the climate; hundred of species of wild animals are easily possible to observe in the Osa Peninsula and some in the same streets of P.to Jimenez, like flocks of Scarlet Macaw, Anteaters, Monkeys, Coatis, Morpho butterflies, etc.<BR>The all the year round warm waters of the Golfo Dulce host Dolphins and Whales and in the Ocean, Tournament Record game fishes like Marlin, Sailfish, Dorado and Tuna, are the regular catch of every day.<BR><BR>No other places in the country offer so much all together….a Real Paradise!!</FONT></P>  <P><FONT face="arial" size="2">The regulation of the property owning is now much more clear than ten years ago and is possible, if supported by a legal advisor with up to date knowledge of the matter, avoid the mistakes that turn in a nightmare the purchase of that “ dream property” that would assure to you and your family years of enjoying of nature, climate and society.<BR><BR>Our legal and technical staff is at your disposition for everything you need before, during and after the process of purchasing your property, and if you have the idea of build something, from a thatch roof platform in front of the best surfing spot, to a” dream house” with all the features you can imagine, we can offer you our help and knowledge for to obtain the planes, the relative permissions of construction, and the crew and materials you will need for the construction.<BR><BR>Our services can also help you in the practices related to the management of employees, insurance for the property and workers, and for the rental of your house, if you want, for the time that you are not enjoying it.<BR><BR>Please visit our&nbsp;Information&nbsp; page where you will find something about the main issues involved in this business, please read it and, please, be absolutely free to contact us for any question related to it.</FONT></P>  <P><FONT face="arial" size="2"><STRONG>Giulio Ranalli&nbsp; &amp; Cecilia Solano Calderon</STRONG><BR><BR></FONT></P></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></FONT></DIV>]]></description>
