Retirement in Nicaragua Is More Realistic Than You Might Think

by JaneAMoore

Nicaragua real estate is suddenly on the radar of many baby boomers. As retirement looms, folks are starting to look for desirable and affordable places to retire. Nicaragua combines beauty and tranquility with affordability like no other retirement destination. Once riddled with civil unrest, Nicaragua has transformed itself into a wonderful place to relax and enjoy life.

Nicaragua is certainly one of the most reasonably priced places to live in the western hemisphere. Known as the bread basket of Central America, the prices for fresh vegetables and fruits are very, very low. The cost of dairy, poultry and world class beef is less than half the price you would find in a North American market.

Nicaragua really does offer something for everyone. There are sleepy little fishing villages that dot the majestic Pacific Coast. You can spend the afternoon watching children play amongst the waves or watching fishing boats return with their harvest. There are a few wonderfully preserved colonial towns. Take a horse and buggy taxi while admiring the awesome architecture.

Planning for the weather becomes much less of an issue when you live in Central America. The weather is warm all year round, and there are just two distinct seasons - the warm dry season, and the warm wet season. The other notable weather pattern are the almost year round offshore winds, which help to keep the heat in the dryer hotter coastal towns at bay. If you prefer a more temperate climate, you may want to consider the central and northern mountains, where the cooler wetter climate at altitude creates the perfect environment for world class coffee farms.

Until recently, Nicaragua real estate has been a well kept secret amongst savvy investors and adventure travelers. Always more affordable than its southern neighbor, Costa Rica, Nicaragua provides excellent investment value. It is possible to get a cliff side villa with a pool and staff quarter for $300,000.00US. This same villa would be triple or quadruple this price in Costa Rica.

Give some thought to Nicaragua as a retirement destination. The beauty of the land and the friendliness of the people are sure to capture your heart. Above all else you can afford to buy in Nicaragua but perhaps not for long. Investigate the opportunities of Nicaragua real estate and see for yourself.
