We are currently closing almost half of the people that see the project…and we still do not have a totally completed home (about half done).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Those of you who read our newsletters know that we have done a nearly total rehabilitation of the area itself, starting with the beach and three abandoned homes which were too close to the beach.   We have worked with the local Playa Azul homeowners, the municipalities of Garabito and Jaco, to ensure that the cleanup was done within proper legal boundaries and with their approval.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We have no doubts that our project will be sold out this high season. &lt;br /&gt;BUT…here is our quandary. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We are being pressured by local realtors in Jaco to let them sell our homes…because there is absolutely nothing like them at their price point anywhere on the central Pacific coast.   And obviously realtors take commission for their work.   And normal commissions fluctuate between 5 and 10% of the total price.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And, given the fact that we are selling about half of the people that see the project…well, you see our quandary.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We simply need to show a few more people the project to sell it out.   So…here is our proposal…&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;If you have a serious interest in beach property…or you wish to examine Pueblo Escondido AFTER reading the website:  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.azul-costarica.com"&gt;www.azul-costarica.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;   and seeing the video: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://www.cr-home.com/azul/azul.html"&gt;  www.cr-home.com/azul/azul.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt; and would like to come down and see the project with a serious eye…here it is:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;    We will pay for your airline ticket (coach only, sorry) if you agree to see Pueblo Escondido AND you convince us that you are serious.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;    &lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;This is NOT predicated on your purchasing the property as so many others do (e.g., “fly and buy” type offers, for example) but you will receive the funds for your ticket whether you purchase or not&lt;/span&gt;…as long as you see Playa Azul and Pueblo Escondido…and this is not a canned tour…this is a personal tour with one of us and a presentation of everything as it is.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;    We are not HIGH SELL nor will we ever be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Why are we doing this?   … Pretty simple.  If we have as high a closing ratio as we say (50%) and we don’t have to pay a real estate broker…we save a nice chunk of change. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;SO… if you have ever wanted a beach property, but can’t quite justify a trip now…you have no more excuses.    And we honestly feel that the area of Playa Azul is gorgeous…teeming with wildlife…and is probably the last authentic Tico beach community on the pacific coast of Costa Rica.    And the homes and their location are stunning…and if you are lucky, you will see the macaws fly over!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Call quickly.&lt;br /&gt;Toll free office:  1-877-614-8079&lt;br /&gt;Toll free home:  1-877-247-3014&lt;br /&gt;Email: &lt;a href="mailto:%20paradisebroker@gmail.com"&gt;paradisebroker@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;p.s. you may be a little skeptical trusting us that your “funds” for your ticket will be here when you see the property… (and we don’t blame you…because this type of offer has never been made before, to our knowledge, in Costa Rica).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We will send you a copy of our attorney’s escrow account showing that your funds are there waiting for you (and if you want to talk to him , that’s OK too)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Randy y Rhonda&lt;br /&gt;2009 ©&lt;a href="http://www.azul-costarica.com"&gt;

Total construction time is estimated at two more months.&lt;br /&gt;We anticipate starting on our second house within the next week or two...waiting on permission to put in a water line and a building permit.   Things always take a little longer than  anticipated!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:&amp;quot;;font-size:85%;"  &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:&amp;quot;;font-size:85%;"  &gt;Properties have also been marked and pads and trees will be cleared so that phase clear lots can be clearly seen and defined.
