We chat with Alex Stripe, owner and chief inspector of Stripe Signature Inspections, to discuss what every buyer should know before purchasing property in Costa Rica. Drawing on years of experience inspecting homes across the country, Alex shares what he's seeing on the ground in 2026, why not all home inspectors are created equal, and how buyers can find the right professional to protect their investment. The conversation dives into the unique challenges of owning property in a tropical climate, common construction defects, septic and water system concerns, and the red flags that should make buyers think twice. Alex also explains why even brand-new homes need inspections and reveals what he would personally invest in if handed $500,000 today.
