Jogi & Verena Team (Formerly ABC Real Estate)

Needing help for a real estate transaction and not living in Costa Rica, I contacted Jogi Gerner whom I had casually known for years. Although never pressuring me Jogi proved to be extremely personable and competent. His awareness and incite of a clients needs and communication skills are excellent. He found a buyer for me quickly and handled everything expeditiously and accurately. His professionalism, integrity and pleasing personality are assets that set him apart.

Jogi & Verena were very helpful getting our house ready for sale and listed. Once a buyer was found all of the necessary steps were taken to ensure that the deal closed on good terms, and in a timely fashion. Happy to recommend their services to any other buyers or sellers looking in the Tamarindo area.

I can't thank this real estate team enough! Their expertise and dedication sold our property quickly, making the experience smooth and stress-free. Professionalism and exceptional service define them. A well-deserved five stars and heartfelt recommendation! 💪🏼💕
Thank you again Verena and Jogi!

My wife and I first met Jogi in 2020. We were in Costa Rica on vacation and had an interest in looking at moving to the area at some time in the future. Despite knowing we would not be buying at that time he still spent a day of his time taking us around and showing us properties in our budget. Jump three years ahead and we just completed the purchase of a home with Jogi. The transaction was flawless and he negotiated a price for us that saved us lots of money. Of course we needed help with Lawyers, Inspectors etc and Jogi has all the contacts required. We highly recommend Jogi and his Team!

Jogi was an absolute pleasure work with - knowledgeable, reliable, professional and trustworthy. We are lucky to have had his support through our real estate explorations in the area. Thank you Jogi!

Jogi helped us purchase our place in the beautiful Tamarindo. He is incredibly professional, knowledgeable and hardworking person. He has an encyclopaedical knowledge of every apartment or house in the 50 mile radius and can help to source even places that were not on the market. There is a reason why he gets so much repeat business - he is trustworthy and stands by his word. He is relationship based, not transaction based. It is a pleasure to work with him. I highly recommend Jogi and ABC Real Estate to anyone who is interested to purchase a property in the Tamarindo Area.

My name is Alan Levenson, I have known Jogi at ABC Real Estate since 2007. During that time he has been extremely helpful to us in our Costa Rica real estate transactions from finding us properties to assisting us locate tenants for our rental properties. We recently decided to sell a business property in Tamarindo. Jogi located an all cash potential buyer literally in under a week. The transaction closed reasonably quickly and Jogi shepherded it throughout. I would not hesitate to use ABC again.

Jogi and his team made the whole house selling process as painless as possible. If he said it, he meant it and he kept his focus on assisting us to reach our next great adventure. Fantastic experience.

We had the best experience with Jogi, Verena and the rest of the ABC Realty in Tamarindo, and would recommend them very highly! The are very professional, helpful, honest, responsive, and made the buying and selling process a lot easier for us. We are extremely happy with their services and we always felt that we were in good hands. We are very happy with their services, and we definitely would use them again.

After a few disappointing experiences with other brokers in the area, Jogi was recommended to us. We are so happy we found him. He is extremely professional, reliable and listens to your needs. It has been a pleasure working with him and his team. I highly recommend him!

We contacted ABC Real Estate as soon as we hit the tarmac in Costa Rica, almost 5 months ago now. We wanted to explore the area of Tamarindo and ABC had a very nice selection to start with on our journey to relocate to Costa Rica.

We felt really lucky picking the winning lottery in choosing real estate agent. Something that can prove to be very difficult regardless of country. ABCs realtor Jogi is a warm person with very little self interest. He chose a few suitable prospects which were all super interesting, but at the end of one tour he took us to a surprise location. Simply put, he helped us finding the absolute best property and we could not be happier with the ongoing support and contacts we keep getting from him in all areas needed for a smooth relocation to a new country.

ABC and Jogi made all the difference in this important investment and family commitment. Pura vida!

Thanks Jogi.

I was very impressed with my service. Jogi found me the perfect property and negotiated a good price for me. I am not an easy client and knew nothing of the intricacies of buying land in Costa Rica. Jogi walked me through the entire process. He even took me to the local utilities to help me establish service! I am very happy with my experience and can't recommend this company enough.

ABC was highly recommended to us by friends who bought several properties through Jogi and his team. Their extensive network and local knowledge is in no small part due to their 20+ year commitment. They are familiar with every part of Tamarindo real estate; whatever is going on, they know of it. Our expectations were exceeded and we believe we found good value with ABC.

I listed the sale of my property, a nice penthouse condo, with ABC. Even throughout the COVID pandemic they remained resolute in getting my property sold at a fair price. I worked with multiple members of their professional team who were very responsive and looked out for my best interest. Even as some buyers tried to lowball me ABC stood by my side until we got a solid buyer with a fair offer. I would gladly do business with them again. All aspects of the listing and sale were expertly handled and responses were always timely. Thanks ABC for getting me a good deal and walking it through escrow to closing. Federico was my agent and I recommend him without reservation.

We have nothing but rave reviews for Jogi and his team. We did not come to Tamarindo to buy but fell in love with this small, quaint town. After meeting ABC we knew we were in the best of hands. We were cared for every step of the way and are now proud homeowners in this area thanks to ABC!!!!

After building and developing in Costa Rica since 2002, I have never met a realtor as helpful and straight forward as Jogi. He is friendly, knowledge, experienced and his attention to his customers is truly admirable. If you want to know about real estate in Guanacaste without any of the usual B.S., Jogi is the guy!

ABC Costa Rica provides an extraordinary service in the real estate business. My wife and I purchased a house in Tamarindo through our agent Federico Jose Fernandez from ABC and were and still are very happy with his services. He is always helpful, friendly, patient and honest. He has a very good understanding of what his clients want and bases his work on the information you give him very efficiently, also anticipating what you might be interested in, even though not even having considered it yourself. We can only highly recommend to work with ABC if you want to do real estate business in the Tamarindo area

My wife and I are from the US and are planning to move to Costa Rica and we first reached out to ABC Real Estate to inquire about a property listing. Yogi, the owner of this business got back to us quickly and professionally. He recommended we meet via Zoom to further discuss our vision, plan and dreams. From the moment we met on Zoom, I could tell he was an outstanding human and realtor. Truly, someone I was excited in life to meet the acquaintance of. When we got down to Costa Rica and met up with Yogi in Tamarindo, he toured us around 7 different properties that met our requirements, and throughout the day, he also schooled us on the area, region, and country—from culture to cuisine. At the end of day one, he offered to give us a tour of Tamarindo the next morning, and we took him up on the offer. He spent about 90 minutes driving us around the city, breaking down the neighborhoods and politics. We ended up on a mountain top estate with gorgeous views overlooking the city and beach—it was breathtaking. When it comes to working with a realtor in a foreign country, it can feel very vulnerable. Trust is huge. I don't typically write reviews, but I am compelled to write this review because if you are in a similar position as my wife and I, then I am here to tell you that you can trust Yogi and his company ABC. We toured approx. 45 properties along the Gold Coast, from Santa Teresa up to Playa Hermosa (the Hermosa North of Coco), and Yogi was hands down the best realtor we worked with. By best I mean, a genuinely thoughtful human being that was honest, kind, outgoing and extremely knowledgable. There was actually another realtor up in Hermosa who referred to Yogi as an OG of the area. I guess he's been practicing real estate in Tamarindo for 17 years. Wow! Thanks for everything Yogi!

I cannot say enough about how great ABC REAL ESTATE has been in managing the sale of my property in Junquillal Costa Rica.
Frederico Fernandez has been excellent in every aspect! Very professional, knowledgeable, and personable. Frederico was amazing at keeping me up to date and informed as to the status of selling my lot. Very helpful in every way. Thank you Frederico!!
He was a pleasure with whom to do business and I highly recommend him and ABC Realty to anyone looking to purchase or sell in the Guanacaste area.

After ten winters in Tamarindo I had occasion to become acquainted with a number of realtors and companies. I am pleased to say that ABC Real Estate is the most professional company there. Each agent I had occasion to talk with was top notch. I listed my condo with Federico who was so diligent in keeping me updated on showings and progress. He offered suggestions based on conversations with clients and handling implementation of any improvements on my behalf. He went the extra mile every time. The diligence, professionalism, integrity and honesty of everyone I encountered in this company is exceptional. They made everything easy. I would recommend ABC to buyers and sellers with confidence. In a world with no MLS, ABC does remarkable networking and marketing. Kudos to Jogi for filling his office with excellent staff. Should I have occasion to need a realtor in Tamarindo and surrounding areas again I would call Federico first thing.
