Author of Real Estate Investing Guide – Costa Rica: Fundamentals for Profit in Paradise
Real estate investor, developer, consultant, author, and columnist for The Mountain Howler and the Costa Rica Real Estate & Tourism Guide magazines, and for the leading website on Costa Rica - WeLoveCostaRica.
In 2005, I began to recognize that the real estate market was declining in the United States and I moved to Costa Rica.
For the last three years in Costa Rica, I have been a real estate consultant for countless Costa Rica investments. I am currently a managing partner with Costa Rica Land & Property, S.A., president of First Equity Development of Costa Rica, S.A., and Paradise Profits, S.A. My business focus remains real estate consulting, teaching, and sustainable development.

Hey Jeff,
Hope all is well!
I just wanted to pop in and let you know that REI Lead Tracker is finally complete (it took me forever). It's marketing tracking software for any real estate professional - geared more towards an investor, but anyone that spends money on marketing/advertising could get tremendous value in using it. It helps to measure lead generation, closed deals, and marketing expenses so you, the investor, is able to maximize profits and save time and money.
Right now I'm marketing it as a FREE giveaway so I can get some feedback and hopefully a few more testimonials before I decide whether or not to charge for it. You can find details and download info at http://REILeadTracker.com. Maybe you or someone in your circle of investors could find value in it.
Thanks for your time and I look forward to hearing about your success,
Koby
