Fun
Transcript
00:04I am a very adventurous person. I like to check out somewhere new at least twice a month.
00:13I'm so excited! The first time I ever came to Hakko, I fell in love. You know, the animals,
00:20the waterfalls, the ocean, the mountains, the rainforest, all of those things that I'm really
00:25missing in Florida. Wow, so cute. Oh my goodness, I love the plants. So much fun. Savannah is my
00:31bestest friend. She's really just my wingman. She knows what I need and what I want in the house,
00:37and I just know that her opinion will really just keep me on the straight and narrow to make
00:40the best decision for myself. Watch out.
01:07So excited you're here. Watch that step. Okay. This move is a really big risk because I am
01:13definitely the kind of person that throws myself into things and deals with the consequences,
01:17and now I'm moving to a new country, and I'm buying my first house.
01:25My family thinks I am insane, absolutely insane, but the fact that Savannah has been here for years,
01:33she already went through this entire process, I think it's just going to help me navigate through
01:38some of the things that she had to figure out a little bit easier. I'm really, really excited
01:42to be here permanently. Yeah, me too. It's going to be so nice. I think it's super respectable to be
01:48able to want something and go after it, being able to purchase and own a property here, especially for
01:53someone our age. Subtle flex. Subtle flex. I'm excited for you to have your own place. I hope we
02:00can find something quickly. I am kind of in a rush to find a house. I've pretty much sold everything
02:05that I've had in the States. I'm staying with Savannah, and I do have a dog that I want to
02:09bring
02:09down here. Who's watching Milo while you're here? He's with my mom. Right now, I'm doing sales for a
02:14marketing company. It is a fully online job, and it does just allow for a little bit more of a
02:19flexible schedule, which is another reason why I'm very excited to come here. You think you want
02:23to learn to surf or what? I feel like if you live in Costa Rica, you have to learn how
02:26to surf. It
02:27just, it takes a lot of hard work and a lot of savings to make a jump like this, and
02:30thankfully,
02:30I'm in a position where I can do so. Hello, buenos dias. Hey, how are you? I'm so excited for
02:36you to
02:37finally make this jump. It's time. So, I actually met Beth on one of my vacations. We just were in,
02:44like, mutual friend group, found out she was a realtor, and just kind of opened that conversation
02:47there. Are you nervous? Definitely a little bit nervous, but I'm ready. Where are you thinking
02:51you want to land? You know, somewhere where I can kind of get this vibe every day. Not, like,
02:55off-grid. We need a full internet. In the mix, but not, like, mixed up. I think Hakko's a bit
03:01of an
03:01uncut gem. It's not this bougie, fancy place. You can still be down-to-earth, but there's also this
03:08special small town while you still get this raw, real culture of Costa Rica. I know a lot of towns
03:14have kind of lost that, but we still hold that near and dear here. This is beautiful. Isn't it?
03:18Is this in my budget? We can talk about that. The market here in Hakko is somewhat of a tourist,
03:24seasonal market, so it does manipulate the market a little bit. However, I would say it's very affordable,
03:30so give me the real deal on what you're looking for. I'm looking for a house that's going to be,
03:35like,
03:35nature-y vibes, but also close to the city. Definitely, like, two bedrooms, two bathrooms.
03:41Very important, two bathrooms. Okay. I want to make sure there's room for guests when they come,
03:45and, like, I would love to pool. High-rise? Home? Is there a preference? I think you want a home.
03:51Like,
03:51you want the outdoor space. Yeah, definitely. And a yard. You know, I'd love to bring my dog down here.
03:56I know you want, like, the nature vibe, but you also want, like, something, like, more modern,
04:00that, like, American, like, house style. Yeah. But maybe, like, I can do some renovations on and
04:06kind of make it my own. Don't listen to her. She needs it, like, packaged, ready to go. Like,
04:10she's ambitious. I'll meet you halfway. Maybe not, like, a full reno, but little things. Maybe paints
04:15or things like that. Okay. Savannah can do the painting for you. I don't know about that.
04:20Okay. What are we doing price-wise? I'm hoping to stay, like, $300,000 or under. I mean,
04:25is that feasible? You're putting me up to a challenge? Because that's a long list of things here.
04:29She doesn't ask for much, does she? Hmm. Taylor's budget is doable. However,
04:34to be able to find something that checks the long list of things she wants,
04:38I'm going to have to give her a little bit of everything and see what she gravitates towards.
04:42We have faith in you.
04:53Wow. Oh, my God. Look at that view. That view, though. Wow. So, I'm going to drive you by
04:58this pretty cool house, just so you can see what's in the neighborhood. Our entry property
05:02levels here start around the $200,000, and they can go up to about the $3 million mark. Check out
05:08this house. Five bedrooms, six bathrooms, infinity pool. This is absolutely insane. Is this in the
05:15budget? Two kitchens. They actually purchased this a couple years ago for $750,000, and now it's on the
05:20market for $1.5 million. So, it just goes to show you what your investment can do. Is the current
05:25owner
05:25married? You know what? He's actually a very good-looking, very cool... Good-looking. Yeah,
05:32I think you guys would look good together, actually. I wouldn't say I'm moving here to date,
05:37but I'm single and I'm ready to kind of find someone who can speak to me in that loving Spanish
05:43tongue.
05:50All right, so this is Lapa Living. We're in a gated community here. We're central to
05:55Alapaco. Super easy, walkable downtown, and then an easy walk and bike to the beach. Such a cute
06:00little, like, vibe that's in here. And I like that it's walkable to everything, too. Okay,
06:05so this is going to be a two-bedroom, two-bath, and it's all modern. Let's go take a look.
06:09Let's go see.
06:14Wow. Oh, cool. Yeah, so this one has a private pool. How much is this house going for? So, this
06:20one's listed at $2.89. Okay, so it's in the budget. Within your budget, yeah. I love the privacy. It
06:25has,
06:25like, room for my dog to be able to run around. I mean, I definitely am going to need to
06:29put a gate
06:29in for the dog, but I think it's awesome. But this looks super new in here. I don't know how
06:34much you'd
06:34have to really... Definitely, it's very modern. All right, so we walk straight into the kitchen here.
06:40Nice, natural lighting. Super nice. You know, I'm not really a big cook, but it's still nice to
06:44have a space to eat together, take out. Okay, she might not cook, but I'll cook at her house,
06:49so I like all this space. Service included, and this comes fully furnished. So, like, the couch is
06:53behind you here in the living room. It all stays with the property. Yeah, I don't know if that's going
06:58to stay with the property. They look a little lived in. Yeah, it is a very small space, and there's
07:03not
07:03really room for, like, a dining table or anything like that, but I love the vaulted ceilings. It feels very,
07:08like, open. Let's take a peek at the bedroom. Ooh, nice tall ceilings. A lot of natural light.
07:15Super small, though. It does feel very tight in here. I'm kind of the girl that is led a little
07:21bit bold by my head and my heart. I definitely get my, like, adventurous spirit from following my
07:27heart and just jumping into things that I think I would love, but I also have to think with my
07:32head
07:32in regards to choosing a house that's going to be a good investment, something I'm going to love for
07:36a long time, and just something that I'm not going to lose a lot of money on. Oh, nice space.
07:40Shower. Fit two people in there, right? Definitely. It does look very new, though. I like the bathroom
07:47more than the bedroom. So this is going to be your second bedroom. Double bed. That's a little bit of
07:53fun. Should we try it out? Yeah. It was so firm. I almost flew off. He bounced. This room feels
08:04bigger
08:05than the other room, or am I crazy? You're a little crazy, I think. But there is a little
08:09surprise for Milo here. Take a look.
08:14Oh.
08:20Oh, my God. This is perfect. This is perfect for Milo. Yeah. This is a log run for you.
08:25Fake grass is less mud. Yeah, this is awesome. This is perfect,
08:28perfect, perfect. Oh, it goes to the front yard, too. Yep.
08:32Definitely a lot of socializing space. I did like that. You know, Beth does know me and know what I
08:37want, and I think this is pretty. I wouldn't say it's on the dot, but it's close. This covered space,
08:42I think that this is the best part of the house. I feel like this is more of like a
08:46single person
08:47house. The bedroom was really small. Yeah, king bed wouldn't fit in there. No. I like to sleep like a
08:53starfish, so. It is super central, but I don't know if it's going to be a little too central. Like,
08:58parts of the year, we have really big festivals here. It's super loud in the city, but I think
09:03that you might enjoy being a little bit more surrounded by nature. Yeah, like more in the
09:07mountains, kind of that vibe. I think this might be a little bit of a reality check for Taylor.
09:11You know, we're inching up on her budget there with quite a few negatives on her long list of items
09:15that she did give me. You're going to love this space. Yeah, being in the rain forest and it's
09:32raining. When you listen closely, you might be able to hear some monkeys. We are really just yin and yang.
09:36Like, I am very go, go, go. But the reason I'm moving here is because I want that more like
09:42tranquilo lifestyle and immediately I make friends with the yoga teacher.
09:54Exhale, softening the shoulders, relaxing the jaw.
10:02It works really great because she balances me. I like the chill that she brings to the table.
10:09She probably likes the crazy that I bring to the table. Put your hands up, inhale. That's super
10:14important here when you're away from your family, to have someone here that you know cares about you
10:20and you know just a phone call away no matter where you decide to move. Should we come back tomorrow?
10:24Sounds like a plan.
10:33All right, so let's get to our next house. This is absolutely beautiful.
10:37This property is located in Quebrada Bonita. It's a little bit more countryside, more mountainous.
10:43I think what's perfect about here is you're just on the outskirts where you're still considered hako.
10:47You're five minutes from town and bike ride-wise about 15 minutes to the beach.
10:51Welcome to my side of town. You can still get things delivered from town if you need to.
10:56It looks like they're doing a lot of construction around here too.
10:58This is a upcoming area. This should be all be paved within the next year or so.
11:04Okay. So that'll make it nice.
11:07It's gonna be a two bedroom, two bath. It's fully gated. It's not in a community,
11:11but it's pretty secure and it's super modern inside.
11:14Okay. Well, I already love the trees and the flowers. And I love the gardens.
11:22Outside has a nice curb appeal too. Yeah, definitely.
11:27I'm really loving it. I mean, before I get excited, how much are they asking?
11:31250 and they are really motivated, so we can work something out here for sure.
11:35Okay. We can manifest that. I like that. Let's go check it out.
11:41Oh, wow. Okay. There's a lot of space here.
11:44Here you have a nice little quick dining area.
11:47Yeah. Yeah. I love that. Like breakfast nookie kind of vibes. Yeah. Cool. Yeah. A little nookie.
11:53A little nookie. So like the appliances, the furniture stays. What do you think about this couch?
11:59I love this couch. I'm obsessed. Yeah, it's perfect.
12:01And the entertaining, like I can be in the kitchen not cooking, but people can be sitting here,
12:06they can be sitting here, they can be there with the door open and we can all easily be communicating.
12:10So I love that. I think this property would help with the grounding aspect that she's really trying to
12:15invite into her life, being able to be surrounded by nature. More importantly, being able to be
12:20very close to me. Ooh, I like this. Okay. I love those shelves. It's like a good size bathroom for
12:26when people come to visit. All right. Well, I think you'll like this one a little bit better.
12:30This is your main bathroom. Wow. I love this.
12:38I love this. Yeah. We don't get a lot of walk-in closets here. So I think there's a little
12:42extra bonus. Yeah. It's not as big as you would expect like a main bedroom's bathroom to be.
12:48All right. So this is your main space here. Yeah. What do you think? This is more what we're looking
12:54for. I love how big it is and how much space there is. I mean, it doesn't feel so like
12:58cramped in here
12:59and even just like the window, it's so open, so much good light. Wow. I love this outdoor space.
13:06I wish it had a pool. I mean, there's space for one, so yeah. I do love that it's all
13:12fully like
13:12fenced and gated in for my dog. Pretty like a private area. Definitely. Nice little topless
13:18tanning moment right here. Hey, you have no neighbors, so pura vida. Yeah, you're 100%
13:23going to need a car, which is totally doable. You could also get a golf cart too. This location
13:30could be a little bit too far from the town, especially because I'm coming here like without
13:35reliable transportation. And then on top of it, there is some things that I would need to really
13:38just do to make it my own. And I have to think, do I want to put that into something
13:42and do that work
13:43or just buy something turnkey? But when somebody says something is up and coming, shows me there's
13:49a lot of opportunity. All right, let's keep it going. Idiots.
14:00Wow, look at how cute this is down here. City definitely comes alive. This is like the Vegas
14:06of Costa Rica.
14:09This town is very small. The entire town is walkable and that's really what makes it fun is you kind
14:15of
14:15just like go with the night. Let's go have a drink. Maybe we can make some friends. And I've been
14:19here a few
14:19times now, so I'm starting to kind of understand like the dating scene. This place is cool. Okay,
14:24what is good here? I really like this lavender drink. Can we order the lavender drink? Your first
14:30date is never going to be boring. You can go and do fun things like learn to surf or go
14:35on a hike.
14:37I will say that it helps to be a bilingual baddie. Yeah, I mean, Spanish is the most romantic language.
14:47What I have found is like I have a lot of fun with people here. You like the surf too?
14:52Yeah. I can hit
14:53some waves. It's just always like, it's fun. It's sexy. It's suave. It's like, it's like,
15:04There's a lot of people that just want to come and enjoy life. And I think that that makes for
15:08a lot
15:09more happy unions and a lot more sexy experiences. So we're on our way to Hermosa right now. As we
15:23come
15:23through, you'll see a bunch of cute little shops on the highway. Today, I'm going to show Taylor a
15:28property that's the best of both worlds. It's outside of town and it's a brand new build that's
15:33ultra ready to go. I'm loving this drive. However, she might have to stretch her budget with a little
15:39wiggle room. In terms of Haco, we're about a five minute drive to town and the beach is about a
15:45three minute drive from here. There's lots of great dining on the beach here and it's beautiful to
15:49watch the surfers. Super cute. You definitely get more of a taste of Costa Rica in this community.
15:54Yeah. We're going to roll up on this house. Brand new build, ultra modern, gated community with
16:00HOA. This is two bedroom, two and a half bath. It does have a private pool. And this is called
16:07tropical modern. Wow. Wow, wow, wow. How much is this going to be? Okay, don't kill me. It's 3 30.
16:22Girl. I know, but just let's go inside. I think you'll understand once we get in there. Today's property
16:27is $30,000 over budget, but everything here is typically negotiable and it checks every box on
16:34her list. Oh, my God. Oh, baby. Look at this. What?
16:40Was I right? I don't know. Suddenly we can work with that budget. Wow. This is stunning. This is like
16:48exactly what you think of when you think of coming to a tropical country like this. I love the style.
16:54I
16:54love that you can sit here and cook and still communicate with people who are in the living
16:58room. Or watch TV. I do like the furniture that's here now. I might make some changes. I don't feel
17:03like we'd have to get a lot of things. It's kind of ready to go already. So that's something with
17:08the
17:08budget that might help. Yeah, it does come fully furnished. So you just bring your toothbrush and
17:13you're good. You don't have to spend a penny on anything else. Well, why don't you show me where
17:16I'm going to be brushing my teeth? Yeah, that's right. Let's go take a look at your bedroom.
17:20I think everything in here is amazing. Very, very tall doors. Okay. I like the space in this room.
17:27Oh, this tile. Wow. I love. This is gorgeous. It's weird that it's not a double sink, but I think
17:34it could be nice for like makeup on one side and like brushing teeth and stuff on the other side.
17:38I absolutely love this property. I feel like it really matches my vibe and it's something I can
17:43easily just jump into and day one be able to live in that kind of environment. I'm obsessed.
17:49Look at all this space for Milo, the pool. Oh my God, Milo's going to love the pool. So perfect.
17:55To be honest about this house, this is exactly what I thought of when I thought of living in Costa
18:01Rica. She might need a second or third job for it, but you know. 30,000, it's not that much
18:06more.
18:07The next week we'll put Savannah's house on the market. Oh, okay. And then I think you guys will have
18:11a little extra change for this one. That is too funny. As much as I love her, our friendship needs
18:15space.
18:16It just would be so amazing to live here and just be able to open the windows,
18:22get that breeze, be close to the beach. Yeah, I hate to be your buzzkill here,
18:27but I just don't see how that's going to be possible with the budget that you have.
18:31Let's go get a drink. Well, we got to save you money on the drinks, girl. So you're buying.
18:36All right, if you buy this house, you might be able to sell us on that with a matcha.
18:40Yeah, you might be able to sell us on that with some tequila.
18:53Wow, it's really good. Love a pink drink.
18:56Pura Vida! Pura Vida!
18:58What do you guys got going on over here? Hey!
19:00I do have a really big decision to make. Have you thought about it much further?
19:04All three houses are beautiful. A tropical modern house. I bet.
19:09You love it. I love that house. You love it.
19:12But if I have to work more to try and make that work financially, I don't think I can do
19:16it.
19:17The Lapa living house was beautiful. I mean, could easily walk home, you know, after a fun night out.
19:22The only things that really, like, kind of, eh, were, like, how small the rooms were.
19:28Don't roll your eyes at me. I did like the house. You did good.
19:30You're in Costa Rica. You're not going to be in your room all the time.
19:33Yeah. Like, the nature villa was so cute. Obviously, I miss the pool.
19:37I think something that can really help influence my decision is just understanding, like,
19:41the actual investment side of it. Because at the end of the day, like,
19:44I want to make sure I'm making the smart business move.
19:46You're going to have to do some work to the nature villa. If you'd rather get a cheaper house,
19:51put some work into it, see what happens in the future, that's kind of the long-haul game.
19:55Or Lapa living. You know what you're buying today. You don't have to do anything. You move right in.
19:59You're good to go. I just want her to make a decision that is the smartest with your money
20:03and how you want to live your life. So it's like, do I move here for town, party, fun,
20:07walk home from the bar, or move into nature, where it's going to be a great investment property
20:11in general? I think you're, like, 50% party, 50% nature, so...
20:16I need two more of these. Bartender.
20:22I ended up choosing the nature villa.
20:28Buying my first home was such a big step in my life, and Savannah was the best person for me
20:35to
20:35bring on this journey. Taylor living so close, we can go catch a quick sunset, we can grab a matcha.
20:42You can take me for a ride now that she has a car. I didn't get everything that I was
20:48looking for
20:48in this house, but considering this is my first home, I got a killer deal. I ended up getting the
20:54house for $200,000, $50,000 less than the selling price. It does allow me to make some updates, maybe
21:00even add a pool here soon. Milo, you guys stay by me though, buddy. Milo is absolutely loving it here.
21:07I mean, this is his best life. When I was visiting, that Pura Vida lifestyle is exactly what I was
21:13coming for, and I definitely think I found what I was chasing. Since moving here, I have learned so
21:20much about myself. This slow lifestyle has just made me realize just, like, how to really appreciate
21:25the day-to-day. Love the little things, be a part of nature, and I get to do it every
21:31day now.
