Sonia Carabaca

Real Estate Advisor - Costa Rica

Costa Rica real estate and relocation, from someone who has called Costa Rica home for over 25 years

Having called Costa Rica home for over 25 years, Sonia brings a unique combination of international perspective, extensive local knowledge, and hands-on experience in real estate and relocation knowledge.

One of her greatest strengths is the extensive network of trusted real estate agents and industry contacts she has built throughout Costa Rica over the years. Rather than limiting clients to her own listings, Sonia takes a broader, client-first approach, leveraging these relationships to source properties across the country and connect buyers with opportunities that best match their needs, lifestyle, and investment goals.

With experience assisting international clients in navigating the Costa Rican property market, Sonia understands the importance of local guidance, transparency, and having the right connections on the ground.

With a deep appreciation for Costa Rica’s coastal lifestyle, Sonia is passionate about connecting people with properties that match not only their investment goals, but also the lifestyle they envision.
