## What we cover

Every listing we publish records the three facts that decide whether a Nicoya purchase succeeds:

1. **Title status** — titled land versus Maritime Zone concession. Costa Rica's first 50 m from the high-tide line is public and the next 150 m is typically leased from the municipality rather than owned outright, with restrictions on foreign ownership.
2. **Water** — whether the local ASADA (community water association) will issue a *carta de disponibilidad de agua*. Without one, no building permit is issued.
3. **Access** — whether the road is public or a registered easement, and whether it is passable in the October rains.
