The international real estate market is currently sizzling with impressive real estate opportunities, and the Central American region is getting a lot of attention in this regard. Globalization and transnational free trade agreements are making it easier for foreign investors to acquire property around the world, and two of the most spectacular listings at this time are located in Belize and Costa Rica.

As previously reported by The Costa Rica Star, the Premiere Estates Auction Company has put together a special Caribbean Basin Auction, that features ultra-luxurious properties in Florida, Puerto Rico, Turks & Caicos, Belize, and Costa Rica. Two listings in the two latter countries stand out:

Selva Nueva in the Osa Peninsula of Costa Rica

Selva Nueva is an incredible 3,200 acre property set between two magnificent lagoons, one salt water and one fresh water that flow into the Pacific Ocean. Bisected by the famous Rio Oro; Selva Nueva is bordered on one side by the 167 square mile Corcovado National Park and on the other by its 2.5 miles of beachfront. It contains over 2% of the world’s biodiversity—that’s more than all of North America combined.

Originally conceived as a nature reserve in Costa Rica, the property is nonetheless capable of supporting a sustainable development. A consultant group has identified hundreds of acres, from the beachfront to the mesas, on which to build without unduly affecting the flora and fauna.

Corozal, Belize

8,493 acres nestled in the beautiful and vibrant coast of Belize are fully authorized with a master plan for up to 4,500 dwelling units (hotels, condominiums, villas), a marina with up to 400 boat slips, a golf course and a private airport of up to 7,000-foot runway.

Only 6 miles away from Leonardo DiCaprio’s dashingly beautiful Blackadore Caye, the value of this amazing property is its top location. DiCaprio is currently developing his island into a conscientious exclusive eco-luxury resort. Situated in close proximity to the world famous barrier reef and being the closest land stop from Ambergris Caye, property is complemented by existing tourism. Ambergris Caye is the largest island in Belize, the main destination for travelers to this western Caribbean nation. The property has a tremendous potential to become an unprecedented spot for a luxury vacation resort.

According to the Premiere Estates Auction Company:

We currently have 7 properties that will be auctioned on Thursday, June 18 representing Belize, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, Turks & Caicos and South Florida/Broward County with approximately $190 Million in listed Prices.
