For me, trust is the most important factor in buying a foreign property. From the beginning Larry won us over with his honesty and explained every detail in the buying process. If I had to do it all over again, Larry Graziano is the only real estate agent I would use. Thanks Larry, we love our house!

I can’t speak more highly of Larry and his team. From the first contact to solidifying the purchase of our home in the Play Negra area, Larry’s integrity and professionalism was exceptional. It was enhanced by the depth of his knowledge of the area and process of buying a house in Costa Rica. He provided us great advice on many issues that you face when moving from the States to Costa Rica. He even recommended an excellent book on how to learn Spanish quickly. After we purchased the house we had a two month delay in arriving in Costa Rica. With most Real Estate the relationship ends when the commission is paid, however Larry and his associate Jurgen helped arrange services to care for the house for those two months. Thank you again Larry and team for making the process as smooth as possible

I had a firm idea of the type of lot I wanted and a budget to fit in . And on top , all without me actually being there or having any idea of the process of buying property in Costa Rica. Larry helped me find exactly what I wanted and made it all seem easy with thorough explanations and assistance. Highly recommend using his services

Larry was awesome to work with. My wife and I sold everything in the United states and moved to Costa Rica. We found a few houses we wanted to look at and Larry was happy to pick us up (we didn’t even have a car yet) and tour us around. Everywhere we went, everyone knew Larry and you could tell he was a big part of the community. We found a house we loved and Larry and his associates made the whole process very smooth and easy (Easier than buying in the states IMO). Moral of the story save yourself the hassle and call Larry for all your real estate needs.

A little over a year ago, I was faced with the dilemma of how to sell land I had purchased in Avellanas in 2011. It had been controlled by an option to purchase agreement but when the option expired in April of 2020 the owner of the option was unable to exercise it. This led me to contact Larry Graziano who walked me through a number of options but it was also at a time when Covid had just hit and the real-estate industry was facing a great deal of uncertainty. With no pressure to list my land with his office, Larry advised me to utilize my existing contacts to try and sell the land on my own and if unable to do so then he would welcome the listing. But Larry's advice and acumen of the local real-estate market didn't stop there because as I worked through the process of updating the deed to my land, it became necessary, on a number of occasions, to have a representative meet at the site with local utility companies. With no commitment from me to sign a listing , Larry offered to make himself available to meet with the utility employees just to help me out. As it turned out, I was able to sell my property on my own but had that sale not gone through, I was ready to enlist Larry's services because of his knowledge of the local market, his integrity with the advice he had given me and the trust he had earned. If you are a person looking to sell a property or buy a property in Costa Rica, I don't think you can do better or feel more secure than dealing with a person like Larry Graziano. Dan McLaughlin
