So here is an interesting question for you CR real estate experts. Say you purchase a place and decide to cohabitate with a tica.To cover your ass, you buy the house in a corporations name and rent it to yourself.Of course you never tell tica about this arrangement.Sound like protection enough from the tica when her family members try to talk her into cleaning you out?

Another layer of protection is give 1% of that corporation to a son or someone you trust then when the corporation kicks her out if she researches the corp and finds out its really you you are still covered because there are other owners

Pension is based on what you can afford at the time and applies to ch*ld support only.

IMHO,
DO NOT JUMP IN WITH OUT DOING SOME RESEARCH FIRST
Check with a lawyer in CR FIRST then create a game plan, protect what you feel needs protecting; money, stocks, property, etc. and then take the plunge. Most CR lawyers charge around $60.00 for the initial consultation and then base their fees on the work requested. OK so you may have to give up on 1 or 2 chicas one night but at least here you can get something back.

Pot calling the kettle black about checking with a lawyer.

MrLV,

I'm not a CR real estate expert but I think I know the answer to your question and it ain't good.

Don't think buying the house under a corporation and renting it to yourself will do much to protect you. Most expats do something like that anyway even if they aren't planning to live with a young tica. Among other things, they do it for tax purposes.

Despite that gringos who had been living with ticas are getting thrown out of their houses every day in CR. There are any number of ways chicas can do this. First of all, if nothing else, as rental property, eviction laws might be applicable. That might not stop her from taking ownership of the property outright but it can keep her in the house for a number of months while she systematically empties it of all your material goods. Then there are the domestic violence laws. These laws are very broad. For one thing, you don't need to be married to the chica for them to apply. Simple cohabitation is more than enough. And you don't have to actually physically abuse her either, simple verbal abuse can suffice. And you don't even need to be guilty of even that. All it take to get YOU thrown out of your own house is her ACCUSATION that you abused her. It seems hard to believe that any just court would allow such unsubstantiated and highly questionable and unproven allegations to justify such immediate and severe action against the accused, but in CR it does. The courts are heavily biased in favor of the Costa Rican against the Gringo and in favor of the Tica against the male. Just read the 3rd - 5th links I provided above for one particular eggregious example of that.

One quote that was particularly chilling: "In false accusation cases, women can still easily get away by lying during the hearing. They just need two witnesses willing to lie for them. They know that even if the lies are noticeable, the system still leans towards them and "In dubio, pro victima" rules the game. There have been countless instances in which the whole court can see the alleged victim is lying and the judge still rules in the alleged victim's favor. Even if the defense appeals the case, it can take years."

How long do you plan to cohabitate with this chica? If you're together as little as 2-3 years (depending on her degree of financial independence) you are considered “union de hecho” or union in fact and are considered legally married. Then it will be at least another 3 years before you can get divorced and she get half of your assets (including your corporation). Having K*ds together is not even necessary for these things to apply but will add even more complications, even if you're "renting" your home. And how easy is it for a tica you've been "cohabiting" with for a period of time to poke some holes in your condoms, or lie about being on the pill and persuade you to go bareback one drunken night? Or lie about having sex with other guys and making you think her pregnancy is due to you?

I think CRSurftown made a good suggestion for an added layer of protection (particularly if that minority shareholder is a tico), but I'm not sure even that would be enough for a crafty and unscrupulous chica. Some other added layers that I would add are:

1) Never tell your housemate about your other assets and reveal as little as possible to her about your financial affairs.

2) Get only cheap furniture and fixtures that you wouldn't mind losing.

3) Place a time limit on your cohabitation and stick with it even if your relationship is still going well.

4) Non-continuous occupancy may be some protection. If she does not live with you all the time AND you can prove it, then you might be in a better legal position.

5) Have her pay some of the bills in her name even if it means giving her money under the table to do it, since that "establishes" that she is not 100% financially dependent on you and has her own financial obligations. The problem with that is if she neglects to pay the electric bill or something like that, you both have to suffer.

6) Get a vasectomy or be VERY careful about "accidentally" knocking her up (can you say tabasco?)

7) Consider getting some sort of prenup or "renters agreement" from her. Not sure what form that might take but you'd need to consult with an attorney for that to make it as ironclad and protective as possible.

8 ) Try to make pals with some of the local police, reputable tico neighbors, etc. since you never know when a connection may come in handy or you'll need to call someone to testify on your behalf

9) NEVER piss her off, which means forget about 1-8 and ever cohabitating with any chica because we all piss them off eventually.

Here's a short story about a co-worker, he was a bit of squarrel to began with. Others ,Not me, took him to C.R. fell in love, against... all advice dipomatically put as possible. Set her up in an apt. had his name on the lease and utilitiy bills, gave her a credit card, came back to the U.S., divorce his wife of 30yrs ,yes hes over 50. Retired, went back found her living with someone else. She called the police, guess what happened next? He ended up staying with one of the guys who live inC.R. He now drives a cab to make a living.
Too Bad I didn't have the article or Prolijos' advice to give him.
Then again some guys are unreachable with common sense.
Flaco
PS
He met her in the KL, But she was not like the rest of em, according to him

i guess you had to be there

You add it to the man-salsa you leave in the condom. It keeps her from trying the old home-grown artificial insemination or at least adds an alarm feature.

It would be pretty funny to watch a chica pour it in. Imagine her reaction as the tabasco makes contact with sensitive, irritated, post-intercourse tissue. En fuego! En fuego!

We didn't just make this all up. See http://www.tenetsofleykis.com/leykis_101_rules/05_tabasco_sauce.php. Personally, I think Leykis and his fear of "the pregnancy trap" is a bit over-the-top and more than a little paranoid. But, as we've seen at the top of this thread, it isn't completely impossible. And, if nothing else, his proposed safeguard is somewhat amusing.

You might want to check out some of his other links which offer, shall we say, some interesting perspectives. One of his previous tenets was that some huge percentage of "fathers" in the US (as much as 30%) were actually raising or paying for K*ds who weren't really their own (hence his preoccupation with sperm disposal, paternity tests and related matters). I was a bit surprised to find this one particular post of his which indicates he may have softened his tune. http://www.tenetsofleykis.com/leykis_101_rules/32_paternity_test.php. At the bottom of this post, he quotes the latest statistics which show his previous reports were just part of an urban myth and that well less than 2% of fathers in the US are actually being duped. Still I have to wonder what that percentage would be for gringos undergoing paternity tests at some chica puta's behest.

Some other interesting Leykis links:

LMAO !!! I'd love to be a fly on the wall when she tries this !!!

Read the link, Santa. It says:

"Dispose of the used condom by flushing it down the toilet. Since this is not always possible, men are encouraged to carry some hot sauce to pour inside the used condom."

As I said before, I don't really think this is really a practical or even necessary solution as much as it is an amusing one. But as long as we're analyzing it. I have to wonder what your chica would think seeing a condom with a reddish tinge in it (that didn't come from her) and why she would ever consider pouring that into her pu*sy. If I saw something like that, I'd be looking for a hazardous biological waste disposal unit.

Back to the topic
I do general contracting here in the states (great biz to be in right now ) Many times we would start a LLC for each project.
Not very expensive. We would also do the same when bying properties with resale or covent restrictions... You can not sell the property but you can sell the LLC
Would this work in CR????
Not for the flipping the houses like I used it for
You set up a LLC it buys the house the girl can not take something that you do not own
Getting her out may be another thing
