Planting New Costa Rican Roots

After attending college in the United States, 27-year-old Tyson Ennis returned home to Costa Rica and moved back in with his parents, who own a place in the city of Escazu (southwest of Costa Rica's capital, San Jose). Tyson is close to his family, but after living on his own, he now feels a little closed in. So, although it's customary for children in Costa Rica to live with their families until they marry, he is breaking tradition and searching for a space to call his own. He's hoping to find a place with two bedrooms and a view that is close to his parents' home, but he knows that with a budget equivalent to $150,000, he'll probably be limited to buying a condominium. With his family's blessing--and their input--the search is on. Real estate Agent Edward Fridovich signs on to help.

Belize Bound

Real estate agent Michelle Owens adores her life in Charleston, S.C., but after vacationing in Belize six years ago, she fell in love with the exquisite natural beauty of the Central American country--so much so, that she's decided to make it her new home. She wants a large house with plenty of guest bedrooms for visiting friends and a drop-dead view of the Caribbean Sea. She doesn't want the hassle of construction, so to increase her options, she widens her search to include not only the beach area, but also the scenic jungle regions, where wild monkeys are neighbors and breathtaking views are still the norm. Helping with her search is real estate agent Howard Oldham.

After hearing about Roatan, Honduras, from a friend, the couple went for a visit and were hooked by the friendly locals and beautiful water spots. They are ready to pack up and move there permanently. Local real estate agent Jeff J. Thekan is ready to show these Minnesotans how to invest their money wisely in a piece of island paradise.

Sao Paulo Search

After living with his sister for five years, Sao Paulo resident Vinnie Porto de Oliveira is ready to buy a place of his own.

Can Paola Alambert help him achieve this goal?

Second Home In Italy

Most of the time, Clara and Alex Thole enjoy the breathtaking view of Puget Sound from their Mediterranean-style home in Mukilteo, Wash. Their other days are spent discovering destinations across the country and around the world. For Clara, one location holds a special place in her heart -- Montoggio, Italy, the home of her heritage.

Heading South To Italy

John Dalrymple, an engineer, and his wife Rina, a potter, rent a tiny 19th-century cottage outside Amsterdam, Holland.

New Aruban Address

Mercy and Joe Flak would like to find a home on Aruba with more space than the 1,900 square feet they currently have. With their daughters Kiana, 6 and Kyra, 3, plus Mercy's sister Myrna living with them, they have a lot of needs to meet.

They decide to look in the exclusive Tierra del Sol golf club and have asked sales agent Bob Elwood for help.

New to New Zealand

Inspired by several Hollywood films showcasing New Zealand's beautiful terrain, California natives Cathie and Mike Koosmann decided to visit the country and see it for themselves. They loved visiting the area of Auckland called Whangarei so much that they decided to make a huge life change and move there. They called local real estate agent Suzie Jones to help them find a piece of property with lots of land, an ocean view and plenty of "living" space.

Deneen and Brian Wargo make their living working in water, specifically the warm waters of Hawaii. She helms a submarine for a tourism company, and he works for a tourist fishing company. Although they like living close to the water in their two-bedroom, two-bath condo, this active couple is running out of space. One visit to Costa Rica and neighboring Nicaragua opened their eyes to new opportunities and new surf to explore. With just as much beautiful scenery, a cheaper cost of living and a growing Nicaraguan tourism market, the city of Managua is the place where this couple wants to drop their next anchor. Real estate agent and fellow surfer, Barry Oliver, signs on to help this couple find a place that suits their needs.

Looking to Own in Jamaica

Jenny and Matthew Pragnell and their three sons have lived in a two-story town home in Kingston, Jamaica, for seven years. Now that their three boys aren't so little anymore, it's time for a bigger house. The Pragnells are renters, not owners, so making changes to their home is not allowed. They are eager to jump into the Kingston real estate market, but they have a limited budget and there is little inventory of homes for purchase. It's not uncommon in Kingston for potential buyers to wait a full year for their ideal home to become available. Real estate agent Allison Machado certainly has her work cut out for her.

Flatmates in Scotland

Scott MacDonald and Graham Renwick, both in their mid 20s, grew up just outside of Edinburgh, Scotland, and have known each other almost their whole lives. They are best friends, and enjoy typical Scottish 20-something activities such as frequenting the city's pubs and playing football on weekends. While they love the small town where they live, they both still live with their parents, and are starting to crave more independence.

New to New Zealand

One visit to Costa Rica and neighboring Nicaragua opened their eyes to new opportunities and new surf to explore. With just as much beautiful scenery, a cheaper cost of living and a growing Nicaraguan tourism market, the city of Managua is the place where this couple wants to drop their next anchor. Real estate agent and fellow surfer, Barry Oliver, signs on to help this couple find a place that suits their needs.

Looking to Own in Jamaica

Jenny and Matthew Pragnell and their three sons have lived in a two-story town home in Kingston, Jamaica, for seven years. Now that their three boys aren't so little anymore, it's time for a bigger house. The Pragnells are renters, not owners, so making changes to their home is not allowed. They are eager to jump into the Kingston real estate market, but they have a limited budget and there is little inventory of homes for purchase. It's not uncommon in Kingston for potential buyers to wait a full year for their ideal home to become available. Real estate agent Allison Machado certainly has her work cut out for her.

Flatmates in Scotland

Scott MacDonald and Graham Renwick, both in their mid 20s, grew up just outside of Edinburgh, Scotland, and have known each other almost their whole lives. They are best friends, and enjoy typical Scottish 20-something activities such as frequenting the city's pubs and playing football on weekends. While they love the small town where they live, they both still live with their parents, and are starting to crave more independence. With Edinburgh's property market on the rise, it's nearly impossible for young people just starting their careers to make that first step up the property ladder. That's why they have decided to go in together on the purchase of a flat. Real estate agent Bill Goodall will assist in the hunt.
