Retirement: Why Panama Is the New Florida.
Panama's quality health care, low costs, and proximity to the states are attracting American professionals as a retirement haven

"Prospective retirees: Panama wants you. The pitch? A plane ride just 21/2 hours from Miami enables the newly poor to swap a wretched retirement in the U.S. for one befitting a royal in the balmy Central American nation. Cash out! Emigrate! Feel rich! Panama-the new Florida.

Spin aside, Panama is increasingly popular among retirement-age types looking to hedge against-or skip out on-the recession. The Migration Policy Institute, a Washington-based think tank that studies the movement of people around the world, says the chief factors prodding professional-class Americans to flock to Panama include its First World health care available at Third World prices and the country's pensioner program, which offers some of the deepest retiree discounts in Latin America. Seniors get up to half off on nearly everything, including movies, motels, doctors' visits, plane tickets, professional services, and electric bills. Expats also pay no tax in Panama on foreign income. Nor are they required to pay property tax for the first 20 years....

But Panama isn't only about the beach. The Boquete region in the mountains-Panama's answer to Boulder, Colo.-boasts loads of U.S.-style gated retirement compounds. The big draws of the area are tennis and golf. For those who are more interested in urban amenities, Panama City, which is by the sea, is sprouting yoga studios, bohemian boutiques, health-food stores, and artsy coffee houses...."

About Boquete in Chiriqui Province

Nestled in a cool and verdant valley, Boquete in Chiriqui is a deeply beautiful mountain community blessed with year-round spring-like weather, incredible views around every corner and warm people with a rich culture.  Boquete boasts a growing number of amenities including excellent restaurants, spas, hotels, shops, supermarkets, gyms and endless opportunities to experience the natural wonder of the region. 

About Chiriqui Province

Hike, Picnic, Stroll, Ride Horses, White water raft, Deep Sea Fishing, Snorkel, or simply curl up by the fire.  Many new residents are discovering the wonders of Chiriqui Province including places like Volcan, Cuesta de Piedra and Cerro Punta.  Blessed with  Panama’s highest mountains and longest rivers, Chiriqui is renowned for its pleasant climate, spectacular rain forest, tropical islands, beautiful farms and ranches as well as the world’s best oranges and coffee.

One of the best places in the world to retire

After being identified by highly respected organizations as one of the best places to retire to in the world, AARP (top 4 retirement destinations) Fortune magazine (top 6 destinations) and being featured in publications such as the LA Times & New York Times, the Boquete area and Chiriqui Province are enjoying rapidly increasing land values as many new retirees arrive each day. 

For investors

We appreciate that quality of life is easier to find when your investments in land or home rapidly increase in value.  Whether it is an investment in a new home, a property to hold or develop or a kitchen, bath or closet that increases your home’s value, Casa Solution is constantly seeking to bring you great returns on your investment in Panama.

Due to rapidly increasing demand for the unique Panama and Boquete-area lifestyle and climate, the sudden high visibility of Boquete in the world market, the upcoming surge of 78 million baby boomer retirements in the U.S. alone (and many millions of other baby boom retirements in Canada and Europe), the increased difficulty of maintaining a high-quality life-style in the U.S. on even a significant budget, the increasing recognition of Panama's political and economic stability, the use of the dollar as currency, we believe Panama's brightest days are just beginning.  Those who purchase the right homes in the best developments, will not only enjoy a wonderful lifestyle, but we believe can also expect excellent appreciation on their home or property investment.

We stand ready to assist you in learning more about the region and in helping to identify the perfect property for you.
