00:01So tell me, do you think that you're gonna miss Canada?
00:03What's Canada?
00:04I've already forgotten about it.
00:07Matt and I met because he stalked me on social media.
00:10No, I didn't stalk you. That sounds creepy.
00:12I just messaged. It's a DM slide.
00:14My best friend and I were traveling in Hako.
00:17I was already living here.
00:18I sent her a message.
00:20Jessie and I had a real spark.
00:21I hadn't felt with other girls.
00:23We spent, like, a whirlwind few days.
00:26Matt had to go back to Canada.
00:27We really tried to do long distance.
00:30It just wasn't right for us at the moment.
00:33It wasn't until this year Jessie and I reconnected.
00:37I was thinking about him five years later.
00:39I'm not gonna use the word pining, but, like, maybe a little bit.
00:42Things just took off exactly where they left off.
00:45Isn't this crazy that we get to see this, like, every night together now?
00:49Right? This move, it needed to happen.
00:52Jessie pretty much said if we're gonna make this work,
00:54like, it's now or never.
00:56You're surfing?
00:56Is on point.
00:58We both knew in order for us to continue building our relationship
01:02would ultimately mean buying a house together.
01:05So, quite simply, I've sold everything I own.
01:09So now he can't leave even if he wants to.
01:12Damn!
01:37Another cocktail, eh?
01:41I have been living in Hakko now for almost ten years.
01:44I get used to this, I'm not gonna last.
01:46What I love about Hakko is absolutely everything.
01:49Babe, you look like a snack. And I'm kind of hungry.
01:51And for me, the obvious answer would be Jess.
01:55I've been to Hakko a lot.
01:56I've always enjoyed it.
01:57But yeah, if Jessie was in Tamarindo, we'd be doing this move in Tamarindo.
02:02So for me, we'd be in Tokyo.
02:04I'd be in a parka.
02:06Like, you've only been here for a week and look at that tan.
02:08Right?
02:09With this move, there was a big risk.
02:10Can I just tell you how much I love you?
02:12Yes.
02:13Jess and I have only really spent about a week together in person.
02:17Would this relationship continue to flourish?
02:19But big risk, big reward.
02:21Here you go.
02:22I'm excited for you to finally meet Beth.
02:24There she is.
02:25Gorgeous!
02:26Hello!
02:27I know our agent Beth really well.
02:29She's heard a lot about Matt and our relationship and how it's unfolded.
02:32Pleasure to finally meet you.
02:34Heard a lot of good things about you.
02:36I've been in the real estate market for about ten years now.
02:39I ended up here in Hakko because me and my husband came on a honeymoon here.
02:43And we always knew this would be the place we'd come back to.
02:46To Hakko!
02:47Hakko!
02:48Jacko!
02:50I love Hakko because we have mountain ranges forever.
02:53The beach is amazing.
02:55It's just really this tropical paradise that you can't beat.
02:59Some might say maybe we're a little crazy because not only are we, like, moving together right away,
03:03we're gonna start working together right away.
03:05We're literally dropping them right into my business.
03:07Who better to work with than the person you love?
03:10Um, let's see.
03:12Jessie has been doing a lot of successful property management.
03:16She kind of set up the pathway for me, which has made me feel a lot more at ease with
03:20the move,
03:21knowing that it wasn't just gonna be me having to come down here and look for work.
03:26Look, I got you covered.
03:27You know, you guys tell me what you're looking for.
03:29We both agree that we cannot have less than a three bedroom.
03:32Matt has a really big family.
03:33My family and friends, as you know, come to visit all the time.
03:36Um, we definitely both, for the hot sun, need a pool to be able to jump in.
03:41It's just, you know how it gets here.
03:42Privacy is definitely the thing that we're looking for.
03:45Privacy would be nice.
03:45It would be nice.
03:46A big deal breaker for me would be not being able to see the ocean.
03:49This is a hard, non-negotiable for me, and I love walking,
03:53and I don't want to have to go anywhere where I can't reach it by foot or by golf cart.
03:57I also like something more modern.
04:00Back in Canada, everything was a little bit more streamlined and modern.
04:03I don't want to be moving into a place where we're going to have to dump more money into upkeeping
04:07it,
04:07and I know Jess doesn't mind something a little bit more rustic.
04:10A little bit of that, like, Costa Rican flavor.
04:12Tell me what we're talking price-wise.
04:13Matt is very set on the $700,000, but I'm willing to take a risk,
04:18spend a little bit more money to get exactly where I want.
04:21This move has been a lot of work to get here,
04:23so I want to just make sure that we're not overspending on it.
04:27It would make me happy playing a little bit conservative.
04:30I would be lying if I said it wasn't a little bit scary to be buying a house so soon
04:35in our relationship.
04:36This is all really new for us.
04:37I don't want to put any pressure on you, but I am really counting on you.
04:40Sounds like a lot of pressure putting on Jess.
04:43Yeah.
04:43So, please don't let me down. We're really banking on you to make this happen.
04:47You know I will. I know.
04:48The real estate market here, it is really, really booming. It's very, very strong.
04:52Our prices are still relatively inexpensive.
04:55We do have lots of development going on.
04:57You know, it used to be this unpaved surfing town,
05:00but now it's really built up to a lot of expats being here,
05:04and a lot of people from all around the world.
05:06People like to say it's this new hako where younger people are coming in,
05:10and they're really diving into making it their home.
05:13Wait, can I have ours?
05:22So, we are on the south side here.
05:24My preference. It's more residential, less touristy.
05:28Got it.
05:28Just generally a little bit more quiet from town or from the north side,
05:32which is why I like it.
05:33Is this a soccer field?
05:34Well, we caught football here.
05:36Oh.
05:36You're going to have to get with that.
05:38Looks like a little school here, too.
05:40It has that community vibe already.
05:41This is cool.
05:42We're more south side girls.
05:44Yeah, for sure.
05:44So, you're going to have to be a south side guy.
05:46Not by choice.
05:47I'll rock that south side.
05:49That doesn't bother me.
05:50Okay, you guys.
05:50So, this is Ciudad del Marque.
05:52Pretty modern.
05:53I think you'll appreciate that.
05:55So, Matt will really appreciate that.
05:56I like the look of that, too.
05:57Yeah, for sure.
05:57Okay, so this house is four bedroom, three and a half bathroom.
06:01Okay.
06:02It does have a private pool, and it's listed at $600.
06:05So, under budget.
06:06Yeah.
06:06Go back.
06:07I know.
06:08Interesting.
06:08I thought you'd appreciate that.
06:10I chose this property for Matt to make him feel a little bit more comfortable.
06:14But I do think it does encompass a lot of the things that they asked for with a great price.
06:20We don't necessarily have other neighborhoods like this in town.
06:23A ton of amenities in here.
06:24You know, resort style pool, owner's gym, volleyball, mini golf.
06:28One, two.
06:29I like that.
06:29That definitely sounds exciting.
06:30Super easy to walk around.
06:31We are about a five to ten minute walk to downtown.
06:34Well, I'm excited.
06:35This is pretty cool.
06:36Wow, I like this already.
06:38Yeah, the open concept.
06:39Right?
06:40It's feeling very airy, really flowy, lots of natural lights.
06:44Super modern.
06:45I mean, stainless steel appliances.
06:47Yeah.
06:47This is very much your style.
06:49I mean, it's done really, really well.
06:51But I don't see that Costa Rican flair that I was really hoping for.
06:54When you're looking for that Costa Rican flavor, you have to get a little more rustic, a little more color,
07:00a little more flavor than what your house has.
07:03Yes, of course.
07:05It feels a little tight in here.
07:07It does have a bunk bed, and I know you've been bugging me about starting a family.
07:11A family, babe.
07:12I'm just saying.
07:13We've been doing a lot of practice, so things could happen magically.
07:17We just never know.
07:18Yeah.
07:19This is cute.
07:19But this view is not what I was looking for.
07:22This big white building here.
07:24You can see all the way down there into everybody's backyard, so that privacy, we'd be lacking a lot of
07:29that.
07:29I like this.
07:30I mean, yeah, high ceilings, it's got some good space to it.
07:34But again, a little white, a little sterile.
07:37Can we talk about the bed?
07:38It's nice.
07:39Is it comfy though?
07:40That's the question.
07:42Firm.
07:42Firm enough.
07:43I will say, definitely looks sturdy, so that's something that we can definitely work with.
07:47You do love a sturdy bed.
07:48Right?
07:48I like this.
07:49I do like this sexy glass shower.
07:51Not gonna complain.
07:52Brushing my teeth.
07:53You're showering.
07:54I mean, that's a pretty good way to start the day.
07:56There's a view that we were looking for.
07:57Right?
07:58This basically looks like the exact same bathroom.
08:00All the rooms and bathrooms sort of look the same, like cookie cutter.
08:03I mean, it's nice, it's clean, but yeah, definitely not anything special.
08:07Beth is my friend, and I feel like she did me a little dirty on this one.
08:11I don't have my view.
08:13I didn't get a drop of Costa Rica.
08:16Hello, do you love me or hate me still?
08:22Hello, do you love me or hate me still?
08:25Um, I still love you.
08:27Should we get the checkbook?
08:29So I see that this is the house for Matt.
08:32And it's under budget.
08:33And it's under budget.
08:34And it's under budget.
08:35And it's under budget.
08:44And it's his first house that we're going to see.
08:46So, you know.
08:47I get that.
08:47I take criticism pretty well from a friend.
08:50Look, I'm just doing my job here.
08:51I'm trying to, you know, please both of them.
08:55But I do have some other properties up my sleeve.
09:04I'm super excited to see this waterfall.
09:06It's epic.
09:07And it's actually kind of like a little secret spot.
09:09So not many people there.
09:11I originally moved to Costa Rica from Toronto.
09:13I had spent a lot of time traveling.
09:15And when I landed in Hakko, I just knew.
09:17It's just paradise.
09:18And it's just something that Canada couldn't offer.
09:20You can't ask for a better view, babe.
09:22Woo!
09:23Also, dates look a little different here in Hakko.
09:26Hey!
09:27Look at this.
09:28You ready to take a dip?
09:29I'm ready.
09:30We can go surfing.
09:31We can go climbing mountains and looking for animals.
09:34There's just so much more ways to, like, connect with each other
09:37and connect with ourselves that are just more fun, adventurous.
09:40It is definitely a very sexy environment.
09:54We're on the south side again.
09:55South side.
09:56One question I have for you is, how does the market look here as far as, like, an ROI on
10:02your investment?
10:03Hakko's really booming.
10:04Your investment's super solid.
10:05Like, this house in particular, it's six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, 2,800 square feet.
10:11It has a private pool with a hot tub.
10:13And this is listed at 1.2.
10:15About five years ago, it was about $600,000.
10:18Oh, my God.
10:19Oh, my goodness.
10:20I love the sounds of that.
10:21Okay, so we're gonna be headed up to Miro Mountain.
10:24This property is on your way to the famous hike we have here.
10:28I know Jess is a lover of hiking up there.
10:30This is a hike getting up this hill.
10:32I do like this tropical feel right now.
10:34Yeah, all the lush greenery.
10:35It's like this year-round.
10:37This is the house.
10:39This is the house?
10:39Wow, this place is crazy.
10:41What's really cool about this, too, is, like, you're still two minutes from town, but you're
10:46in the jungle.
10:47And you don't really get a lot of that mix.
10:49This property was chosen for Jesse.
10:51It's definitely got that Costa Rican touch to it.
10:54The house itself is five bedrooms, five bathrooms.
10:56It's about 3,500 square feet.
10:58Okay, real big.
10:59What's the price on this one?
11:01So this is at $710,000.
11:02Pretty close to your budget.
11:03Well, a little over budget.
11:04And we're definitely gonna need a car to get up and down that hill, especially in bad weather.
11:09I definitely won't be able to walk in heels anymore.
11:10Not with five bags of groceries.
11:12I did ask for walking, though.
11:13You didn't specify what kind of walking.
11:16Okay.
11:18All right.
11:19Are you kidding me?
11:20Look at this.
11:22Let's go outside.
11:23Check out this view.
11:25You can literally see all of Hakko from here.
11:27It's sick, right?
11:28Right.
11:29And then having that infinity edge.
11:31You guys look down here in this tree.
11:32There's a toucan.
11:33No way.
11:34We're really in the jungle right now.
11:36Yeah.
11:36And there's a little surprise over there.
11:37A hot tub?
11:38A hot tub with a disco ball.
11:40What?
11:41Catch that?
11:42We don't have to worry about the neighbors.
11:43No neighbors, that's for sure.
11:44Nobody's gonna be looking in our house.
11:46All right.
11:47Why don't you guys go off and do your thing?
11:48Let's do it.
11:49Lead the way.
11:49I love this open concept for when we have people over.
11:53All right.
11:53I mean, this table.
11:54That screams hosting.
11:55I kind of enjoy both these swinging chairs.
11:58This is much more what I was thinking about.
12:00The Costa Rican style, the wood features, the bright colors, and some of the details.
12:05But I'm still getting a modern vibe from the kitchen.
12:07You got the stainless steel appliances, dishwasher.
12:10Let's go check out the rest of this place.
12:12So it looks like this is the bedroom on the ground floor.
12:15Not super big.
12:16It does have a really, really nice view with the jungle out there.
12:19And it looks like there's an ensuite bathroom here as well.
12:21That's gonna be really great if like your parents come and everybody wants to have their own room and their
12:26own bathroom.
12:26I really love that.
12:27Let's go check out this upstairs.
12:29The place is huge, eh?
12:31Babe.
12:32Wow.
12:33Are you kidding me?
12:34I'm like actually speechless right now.
12:38I'm like actually speechless right now.
12:41This is incredible.
12:44Look at this view from up here.
12:46High ceilings.
12:47This big bed with this canopy.
12:49So primary bath, eh?
12:51I mean, every bedroom has its own ensuite.
12:54Whoever comes to stay with us is gonna have their own space.
12:56So that's really cool.
12:57Wow.
12:58Like are you kidding me?
12:59This is breathtaking.
13:00This is definitely far from Canada.
13:04This place makes me feel authentically here in Costa Rica.
13:07Looks like this is another bedroom.
13:09Super spacious.
13:10Two beds.
13:11And I do like the size of this place.
13:13Huge bathroom by the looks of it too, eh?
13:15Another ensuite.
13:16I'm really loving that.
13:17It gives us extra room when we're ready to start making those steps to creating a family.
13:23These rooms?
13:24Not great.
13:25We just put the relatives that we don't really liked in here because this is not the best part of
13:30the house.
13:30Not a bad idea.
13:32Wow.
13:33The views like doll dropping, breathtaking, stunning.
13:36The downstairs bedrooms, I will say, leave a little something to be desired.
13:40But I mean there's so much that's positive.
13:42Yeah, I know I said that I wanted something a little bit more modern.
13:46But there's a lot of really good things here.
13:48But it was a little over what we were looking for at $710,000.
13:53We're definitely gonna have to get a car.
13:55I mean doing that hike up and down that hill.
13:58Another thing to consider, it is showing a little bit of age.
14:01So we might have to dump some money into it in the future to maintain the property.
14:06Well listen, I know you're concerned about the price.
14:08But at $710,000 with a million dollar view, I think we can twist his arm.
14:12What do you think?
14:12Or just twist me period.
14:13Yeah.
14:15Picking the wrong house could definitely impact our relationship.
14:17Matthew has given up a lot to be with me and it's not lost on me the sacrifices that he's
14:21made.
14:22It's really important to me that he feels comfortable and this is the place where he really wants to be.
14:27And we both can just be happy with our decision.
14:32You look really, really good tonight.
14:34I feel like you've adapted to the Costa Rican way very quickly.
14:37I'm a million times happier than I was before.
14:39Do you feel like the Pura Vida has really set in free?
14:42Bit by bit by bit, yeah. 100%.
14:44Pura Vida, direct translation is pure life.
14:47That encapsulates what Costa Rica is.
14:49It's also a testament to slow down.
14:52It can wait, relax and Pura Vida.
14:55That necklace? I love it.
14:57Are you staring at my boots or are you staring at the necklace?
14:59Combination of both.
15:00Do you blame me?
15:01My favorite part of you.
15:02Besides your smile and your heart.
15:04She's a full package.
15:06She's got the looks.
15:07She's got the brain.
15:09That's Jessie in a nutshell.
15:10I'm very fortunate.
15:11I'm lucky.
15:12You want to get out of here?
15:13Yes.
15:14Yeah.
15:19Guys, we're going to switch it up this time.
15:21Okay.
15:22We're going to do a condo.
15:24Oh.
15:25Okay.
15:25On the south side here, this is like a little bit more central to the center of town.
15:29Which for my walking is kind of great, so.
15:31Yeah, I mean you're definitely convenient to everything.
15:33My strategy for all three properties was I really wanted to cover all aspects of each thing that they asked
15:39for.
15:40And I think we really found a middle here at this condo.
15:43Wow, look at this, eh?
15:44So this is Vista Las Palmas.
15:46Okay.
15:47It's one of a kind here in Jaco.
15:49It's pretty iconic.
15:50The yellow building, beach front.
15:51I know about this building because I've lived in this town for a while.
15:55I don't think you can find a better location here in Jaco.
15:57No car is needed here, so that's definitely a bonus.
16:00Okay, so this property is on the sixth floor.
16:02Three bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and it's almost 2,700 square feet.
16:05So it's pretty large.
16:06It's a big size.
16:07Why don't you guys go take a look and I'll see you back at the pool.
16:09Sounds good.
16:11Yeah.
16:11I didn't tell them the price because I knew Matt was going to freak a little.
16:16So I let them go up, take a look, you know, really feel out the property.
16:22Well, here we are.
16:23Look at this, eh?
16:24Check this room out first.
16:25Yeah, let's do it.
16:26Nice little ensuite bathroom.
16:28Everything's really bright, really white.
16:30And look, I'm noticing a really nice view from this balcony.
16:34Look at this.
16:34I mean, you got the mountains, the clouds.
16:37It's super, super lush.
16:38Oh my gosh.
16:38This must be the main.
16:39Yeah, it's spacious.
16:41I don't really see that Costa Rican flavor.
16:43I mean, Jess, all we need to do is put our own touch on it.
16:46I mean, I agree.
16:47I could definitely picture myself like this.
16:49Yeah, you feeling good over there?
16:51And what is this?
16:51Sit down, have a massage.
16:52Can I try it?
16:53I mean, this could be an upsell to the house.
16:55I mean, it is kind of comfy.
16:57It's doing like a little thing on my back right now.
16:59Right?
17:00What else does this thing do?
17:02Whoa.
17:05Whoa.
17:06Kind of gets better massages than you.
17:07I don't know.
17:08Oh my gosh.
17:09You might have to buy this property by yourself then.
17:12Here she is.
17:13Main en suite.
17:15Little glory.
17:16Oh, wow.
17:16What?
17:23I like the toilet.
17:27It's got a built-in bidet with a remote control.
17:30If we were to buy this house, I'll definitely have the freshest butt in all of Paco.
17:37Wow.
17:38Oh my goodness.
17:38The space here is beautiful.
17:40I love how open it is.
17:42The view is like every single place that you look.
17:45The kitchen.
17:46Modern, modern.
17:47Stainless steel appliances.
17:48Okay.
17:49Let's see that view.
17:49Let's go check it out.
17:52Oh my goodness.
17:54Wow.
17:55This is incredible.
17:56This is what it's all about.
17:57Are you kidding me right now?
17:58It doesn't get more Costa Rican than this.
18:00And look.
18:00Two family down there.
18:02That could be us one day, babe.
18:03Hey.
18:05I love you, babe.
18:07I love you too.
18:09I definitely liked it.
18:10It looked to be a maintenance-free condo.
18:12The kitchen was really nice.
18:14The views, the size of the place.
18:16Oh, wow.
18:17Those are gigantic.
18:18Cool.
18:18It's amazing.
18:19All right.
18:20So what are we thinking?
18:22I mean, you definitely delivered on the views.
18:23And you know, it was much more matte style, but I really felt like I was in Costa Rica.
18:28I have the beaches there.
18:29I can see the palm trees.
18:31So even though it wasn't necessarily in the design elements, I did feel like I was still
18:35getting that authentic vibe.
18:36So the real question is, Beth, how much is the property?
18:41Hit us with it.
18:43750.
18:44And there is an HOA here.
18:46Why are you so excited about that?
18:48750?
18:48It's worth it, right?
18:49I knew you were holding out on us for a reason.
18:52I let you go see it first.
18:53It's beachfront.
18:54You can't be beachfront.
18:55There's only so much that's available.
18:57It's always going to be a sound investment.
18:59For sure.
18:59So I'm not hearing a no from you.
19:01Is that right?
19:02Is that what you're catching?
19:02I'm not hearing no.
19:03That's what I'm catching, and I like the answer for all three of us.
19:06In our relationship, how many times have I said no to you?
19:09Not right.
19:09Well, we definitely have a lot to talk about and a lot to think about.
19:19This view is epic, eh?
19:21Eh?
19:22Look at that.
19:22That's the beachfront.
19:23I did like that property.
19:25It had a lot to offer.
19:26Beth really pulled through.
19:27She did.
19:27I mean, she showed us three amazing places, but two options I think stand out.
19:33Can we agree?
19:33It's between the nature house and the beachfront house and no cookie-coater.
19:38The price was right, but yeah, I think you're right.
19:40Both had such amazing views.
19:42They're pretty unreal.
19:43I did love the beachfront property.
19:45There's no better place to be in Hakko than right on the beach.
19:48You walk to everything.
19:49That place is definitely the most sound investment.
19:51And that's something we've got to think about.
19:52There's not going to be any sexy moments at the communal pool versus nature house.
19:56We've got our own private pool, our own private hot tub.
19:59But we definitely need a car for that hill.
20:02And it is an older house.
20:03I don't know what maintenance is going to cost here.
20:05We're talking about something that we're going to be living in for years to come, right?
20:08Hey, are you going to stay with me for years?
20:09I hope.
20:10I didn't make this move for no reason.
20:20Hey.
20:20Hi, baby.
20:21Woo!
20:22Oh, my goodness.
20:23Rain's got us again tonight, eh?
20:25Yeah.
20:25So nice, though.
20:26In the beginning, I didn't have a vision of owning a home like this.
20:29I wanted the modern look.
20:31But honestly, I think it was just a hidden gem.
20:33When you find a place that's so unique, I think you have to make some compromises.
20:37The hill can be annoying.
20:39Right now, we're dealing with rainy season.
20:41Can be a little bit of an adventure.
20:43Yeah, but what's life without a little bit of an adventure?
20:45I had that checking out the property today.
20:47Lovely couple.
20:48Yeah.
20:48Of doing property management alongside Jessie.
20:51So working and living together, I think we've really handled it.
20:54We understand that there's a point that we work and a point where we stop and we just enjoy each
20:58other's company.
20:58We're more connected than ever.
21:00It does help that we can walk around naked and nobody sees us.
21:03That also helps.
21:05Look good.
21:05Matt and I really were chasing that second chance at love, and I 100% feel like we found that.
21:11驴D贸nde est谩 el ba帽o?
21:12驴D贸nde es el ba帽o?
21:14It's really close, and you're handsome, so I'm going to let it slide.
21:16I think I'm actually more in love with Matthew now than I've ever been.
21:19For sure.
21:19Many years of love and passion.
21:22Salute.
21:23Found my dream girl with our dream house, and I'm just really excited for the days ahead
21:28and what we're going to continue to build.
21:30Love you.
21:30Love you too.
