Million Dollar Agent Josh Flagg to Host Four Day Dance Party in Costa Rica
Million Dollar Agent Josh Flagg to Host Four Day Dance Party in Costa Rica
Josh Flagg, one of the stars of Bravo TV’s hit reality series “Million Dollar Listing,” will be hosting a four-day dance party in the Quepos/Manuel Antonio area of Costa Rica this July.
Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) June 16, 2011
Josh Flagg, world renowned author and one of the stars of Bravo TV’s hit reality series “Million Dollar Listing” will be hosting a four-day dance party in the Quepos/Manuel Antonio area of Costa Rica from July 21 to 25.
Sponsored by Hacienda Matapalo, the best selling Costa Rica Real Estate gated community on Costa Rica’s South Pacific Coast, the four day event kicks off with a Welcome Dinner Party at Raphael’s Terrazas in Manuel Antonio on Thursday, July 21 and concludes with a Sunset Tea Dance at Barba Roja on Sunday, July 24. Other parties include a Friday night dance party at a popular Manuel Antonio club on July 22, an afternoon floating dance party leaving from Quepos harbor on Saturday, July 23 and the big Jungle Heat Dance Party at Rancho Alegria on Saturday night, July 23.
“I can’t wait to visit Costa Rica,” says Flagg, who has been to more than 50 countries around the world, but has yet to experience the land of Pura Vida. “I’ve heard so much about this amazing place that I am really looking forward to it.”
Aside from discovering Costa Rica’s incredible biodiversity and participating in some of the activities that the country is famous for – ziplining under the rainforest canopy, hiking through amazing nature trails and visiting the active volcano at Mt. Arenal – Flagg hopes to mix a little business with his pleasure.
“In addition to seeing all the wonders Costa Rica has to offer from a vacationer’s perspective, I’m also looking forward to visiting the Hacienda Matapalo property to see if I can bring business there.”
Flagg, who has penned two best-selling books – “Million Dollar Agent” and “Stories My Grandmother Told Me” – and is considered one of the top real estate agents in the greater Los Angeles area (having made record sales of $15 million to $25 million on single estates), says he is intrigued about expanding his offerings to include the 665 acre master planned community.
“It’s not every day you get an opportunity to present a property like this,” he says. “But from everything I’ve read and seen about this development – including the fact that they have five-star amenities within their community – Hacienda Matapalo just might be the ideal place for me to expand my business. But, I won’t make a final decision on that until I get to the property and see it for myself.”
Hacienda Matapalo has a wide range of offerings from 1.25 acre Home Sites starting in the mid-$200,000s and Lake View Condos from $205,000 to Ocean View Condos from $330,000 and Exclusive Ocean View Penthouse Condos for as much as $1.28 million.

Hacienda Matapalo Announces Closing of Financing Package
Hacienda Matapalo Announces Closing of Financing Package
Hacienda Matapalo, a master planned gated community located on Costa Rica's South Pacific Coast, recently announced on the closing of its financing package.
Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) March 24, 2011
Hacienda Matapalo, an environmentally friendly gated community of homes, villas and condos in Costa Rica with world class amenities, has announced that it has closed on its first round of financing which will be utilized for infrastructure and utilities. The company has pre-sales in excess of $65 million and expects to begin single family home site closings within the next 60 to 90 days.
New Jersey based UTA Capital LLC was the lead investor in the transaction. UTA is a specialized fund managed by Udi Toledano. UTA has a broad investment mandate, including the funding of unique properties worldwide.
In connection with the financing transaction, the company entered a strategic partnership with Su Casa Desarrollos de Vivienda S.A., the leading company of the Tu Hogar S.A. Real Estate Group, which literally translates to "Your Home." Su Casa has more than 20 years of experience in building and selling real estate throughout Costa Rica, having built more than 15,000 homes.
“We are pleased to have closed a financing transaction with UTA and other private investors,” said Hacienda Matapalo CEO David Matluck. “We appreciate the confidence Udi Toledano and his associates have shown in our business. We have an experienced and well qualified crew working full time on the infrastructure and we are delighted with the progress they have made in such a relatively short period of time.”
About Hacienda Matapalo
Situated in a Rainforest on a mountain overlooking the Pacific is the 665-acre resort style gated community of Hacienda Matapalo, one of the best selling real estate developments in Costa Rica. One can live close to nature with dramatic views of the Pacific Ocean just 800 meters away.
Residents and their guests will enjoy complete access to all community amenities as abundant activity choices await them. A Private Beach Club, Equestrian Center, Swim-up Pool Bar, Media and Event Rooms, Fitness Center, Tennis Courts, Picnic Cabanas, Relaxing Spa, Resort Clubhouse, Waterfalls, Freeform Infinity Edge Pool, 125 acre Nature Preserve, and Retail Center, are just a few of their personal escape options.
Three of the area's most beautiful beaches are within minutes of Hacienda Matapalo. The property is located on the Pacific Coast Highway (Costenera) "Where the Mountains Meet the Sea," providing easy access to a new airport, hospital and marina.

Celebrity Chef Cooking in Costa Rica
Now He’s Cooking! Celebrity Chef J.R. Cifrese will Bring the Heat to Costa Rica Real Estate Project
Celebrity chef J.R. Cifrese visited Costa Rica for the fourth time where he not only fell in love with Hacienda Matapalo, the most sought after master planned gated community on the country’s South Pacific Coast, but decided to make an investment in his future there by opening a new shop.
Back in April 2010 Celebrity chef J.R. Cifrese and his sister Martha visited Costa Rica. For the culinary expert it was his fourth time there. Not only did he fall in love with Hacienda Matapalo, the most sought after master planned Costa Rica real estate gated community on the country’s South Pacific Coast, but he decided to make an investment in his future there by opening a new shop.
“I’m very excited about Costa Rica,” Cifrese said. “Not only am I thrilled about being a home owner at Hacienda Matapalo, but I’m excited about having a shop at the Matapalo Plaza Commercial Center.”
For fans of celebrity chefs and television cooking shows, J.R. is somewhat of a familiar figure as he has made many appearances ranging from the Food Network to CNBC to a number of TV shows including “The Today Show” on NBC and “Hell’s Kitchen” on FOX.
Currently working on the television project “Coast 2 Coast Cuisine” with his best friend and New York-based chef Ed Gallagher, the Los Angeles-based Cifrese will be bringing his culinary skills to Costa Rica as he will have a bakery and provisional shop at the Matapalo Plaza Commercial Center.
“That part of the country is ready to explode and I wanted to get in on the ground level,” J.R. explained about why he decided to buy at Hacienda Matapalo and invest in the commercial center. “I see the potential that is there and so I know it’s a good investment.”
The fifth and last child of a first generation Italian American family, J.R. Cifrese started cooking as a small child making Sunday morning omelets for his big family, including his parents Leonard and Barbara. The house was always full of family and friends and of course being Italian that meant there was always lots and lots of great food. “It’s a cultural thing,” he said with a smile.
“Sunday afternoons were spent helping to prepare all the food as we would sit down to a traditional Italian feast complete with wine my grandfather made,” J.R. explained. “Of course the wine was always mixed with 7-Up for us kids.”
As fate would have it, food was to be in his future.
During his freshman year of high school, J.R. sought employment at a local gas station. But when he arrived to apply, the service station was closed, so he walked across the street to an Italian catering delicatessen, where he was hired on the spot and began his incredible culinary journey.
When the owner of the deli saw J.R.'s gifts, he suggested that the aspiring chef should apply to the acclaimed Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, N.Y.
“Working in the deli throughout high school and learning all of the basic cooking skills – sautéing, baking, pastry making, sausage making, knife skills, catering skills, cutting and weighing deli meats – was the foundation on which I was able to build a career,” he recalled. “My mentor knew what it would take to be a successful student and classically trained chef and I’m thankful he saw the full potential in me.”
Just like J.R. has seen the full potential in Hacienda Matapalo.
“Back in January of 1982, when I started at the CIA, I immediately fell in love with the culinary field. Well, even though I had been to Costa Rica three times prior to visiting the South Pacific Coast, once I stepped foot on the property, I immediately fell in love with Hacienda Matapalo and knew this is where I wanted my future home to be. Like I said, I saw the full potential here just like my mentor saw the full potential in me.”
After 21 months of school and graduating in the top 10% of his class, J.R. was off to New Orleans where he spent two years working in the pastry shop of a 5-star hotel in the French Quarter. He also worked in various classic New Orleans restaurants, learning the Creole and Cajun styles of cooking.
Looking to diversify his experience, J.R. moved to Killington, Vermont where he helped with the start up of a restaurant as the sous chef. Skiing and cooking was the recipe for a successful experience and his next stop was Nantucket, Mass., where he worked as the pastry chef in the finest restaurant of his career.
“Spending the summer there was a great experience for me,” J.R. recalled as that was his first managerial position.
Moving west to Colorado, J.R. spent 15 years in the Rocky Mountain state, working at the Breckenridge Resort as the executive chef responsible for overseeing seven restaurants, a $4 million a year operation and a staff of more than 100 employees. He then moved to Denver and for the next five years owned and operated a successful catering company.
Selling the catering company, J.R. went further west and was the head chef on an 85-foot private luxury yacht in Marina Del Rey, California for eight years. When the yacht was sold, J.R. stayed on as the family’s private chef where he is currently working out of their Beverly Hills mansion.
Having traveled and cooked up and down both the Western and Eastern seaboards of the U.S., it was only natural for an international extension for J.R. to take place.
“Along with my latest adventure – 'Coast 2 Coast Cuisine' – being able to bring my cooking and baking skills to Costa Rica is a real thrill for me,” he said. “And knowing that most of my customers will also be my neighbors will certainly keep me on my toes. It will be like cooking for the family on Sunday mornings all over again. And that means only one thing … there will always be lots and lots of great food.”

Costa Rica Real Estate Project to Present Webinar for Realtors
On Tuesday, Jan. 18 at 6 p.m. Eastern, Hacienda Matapalo, a 665 acre master planned development in Costa Rica, will present a complimentary Web-based seminar for Realtors and other real estate professionals.
Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) January 15, 2011
On Tuesday, Jan. 18 at 6 p.m. Eastern, Hacienda Matapalo, a 665 acre Costa Rica real estate master planned development, will present a complimentary Web-based seminar for Realtors and other real estate professionals.
Hosted by the company’s Vice President of Sales and Investments Michael Starkey, the eSeminar will focus on Hacienda Matapalo’s new program for Realtors and the opportunities that are available to real estate professionals for introducing their clients to the most sought after gated community on Costa Rica’s South Pacific Coast.
“We’re looking forward to connecting with many new Realtors in the New Year,” said Starkey. “With infrastructure construction fully underway, this is an exciting time for us and we believe once more real estate agents are onboard with us, it will be an exciting time for them too.”
Also participating in the virtual presentation will be Agent Shield, Inc. Vice President and co-founder Lu Doan, who will explain the benefits of his company’s Agent Shield technology. Recently Hacienda Matapalo and Agent Shield announced a partnership to provide Realtors with free tools to help them market, sell and receive credit for their efforts.
“For real estate agents, their most important assets are their customers,” explained Doan. “The Agent Shield patented technology creates a better connection between real estate professionals and developers. Before Agent Shield was created real estate agents would not consider linking to a development’s Web site for fear of losing leads; there was not an effective method of tracking the procuring source of the lead. Agent Shield is designed to protect Realtors while enabling developers to increase their outreach and ultimately sales.”
“This gives our referring parties an extra level of comfort,” said Starkey of the partnership. “By having an extra level of tracking and protection for their clients, Realtors will be more comfortable sending leads directly to our Web site because they know they can track them.”
Starkey said that while agents who may already work with Hacienda Matapalo know about their impeccable reputation, becoming part of the Agent Shield network was especially important for those agents who have not previously worked with them.
Agent Shield, Inc., the creators of Agent Shield, has more than 7,000 Realtors in 25 countries in their network.
A raffle for a free hotel stay at Issimo Suites, the four-star boutique hotel and spa near Quepos and Manuel Antonio National Park, Costa Rica, will be offered for those who attend the presentation.
Realtors may register for the free eSeminar here.
For those real estate professionals who cannot attend live, the presentation will be available via Hacienda Matapalo’s eSeminars On-Demand where they can watch and listen to the presentation at their convenience. All they have to do is register for the eSeminar and a link to the archived presentation will be emailed to them the following morning.
