Upscale community, La Jolla de
Guasacate, is located in the hills
overlooking Playa Guasacate, near
the world-renowned Surfari
Charters surf retreat. Southwestern
Nicaragua has long been regarded as
a surfing and fishing paradise,
feature-profiled by international
surfing magazines for its stunning
Pacific coast line and perfect point
breaks. However, surfers aren’t the
only ones who recognize the value
and beauty of this area. The Lonely
Planet travel guide recently ranked
Nicaragua 3rd of the “Top 10 Hottest
Destinations” of 2006. Its newfound
mass appeal was solidified when
U.S. News and World Report named
the country as one of the Top 10
Places to Retire Overseas. In the
past year, articles featuring tourism,
retirement and investing in
Nicaragua have appeared in
publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Conde Nast Traveler, ashington Post, NY Times, GQ,
Men’s Journal and the San Francisco Chronicle, among many others.
With pristine beaches and world class waves at your doorstep, Las Salinas sells itself as an exotic locale,
yet purchasing property here also presents an amazing investment opportunity. Situated just north of
international tourism destination San Juan del Sur, where land prices tip $200/square meter, the area is a
hidden gem poised to benefit from skyrocketing property values.
Hailed as “the next Costa Rica,” Nicaragua has followed in its neighbor’s footsteps by overhauling its
legal system and become one of the few countries in the world to offer equal property and ownership
rights to citizens and foreigners alike (100% full land ownership to foreigners). New legislation also is in
place to offer even more security and encourage
foreign investment. With the recent drafting of the
Central American Free Trade Agreement (CAFTA),
the U.S. Embassy of Nicaragua predicts a friendlier
market, making it easier for U.S. Banks to enter the
Nicaraguan market. U.S. financial service suppliers
will have full rights to establish subsidiaries, joint
ventures or branches for banks; thus transitioning the
sector from state ownership to private. The investment
chapter of the CAFTA-DR includes provisions for the
protection of U.S. investors, establishing a 
secure,
predictable legal investment framework: All forms of
investment will be protected, including enterprises,
debt, concessions, contracts and intellectual property, making Nicaragua an intelligent and secure
investment option. The World Bank recognized this by rating Nicaragua as one of the Top 10 safest
countries to start a business in 2006.
All properties have clean, fee-simple title, and can be additionally insured by Stewart Title Insurance. La
Jolla de Guasacate presents a rare opportunity to become one of the first to invest or build a dream
vacation home in beautiful Las Salinas, Nicaragua.
