Five Reasons Costa del Este is a Hot Property Market

While many Panama City neighborhoods can boast sales these days, one market — Costa del Este — stands out for attracting a broad range of home buyers and investors. The coastal neighborhood minutes from downtown has been popular for a long time. Still, in recent years Costa del Este’s popularity has hit new heights, making it one of the hottest property markets in the region.
Punta Pacifica Realty sales associates report activity in Costa del Este across a wide range of price ranges and property types. And while other neighborhoods may attract certain types of buyers, Costa del Este is drawing interest from a broad spectrum of the market, including Panamanians and international investors, who are snatching up everything from luxury penthouses to efficient one-bedroom apartments.
Why now? Why is Costa del Este a hot market in the current economic conditions? Several key factors are making Costa del Este the popular option for many Panama property buyers.
Strong Rental Market. The beautiful coastal stretch of modern homes — with almost every home featuring an ocean view — is a natural for renters. Investors see a market with a great value-to-price ratio. The proximity to downtown, the convenience of modern neighborhoods, and the waterfront location provide long-term security.
Executive Friendly. Costa del Este is the perfect destination for international executives working for the many multinational corporations based in Panama. It’s close to the airport, offers easy access to the highways and business districts, and provides a comfortable, safe environment for young families. International executives provide a solid base for sales and rentals.
Great Developments: Costa del Este is home to a variety of stunning, innovative projects, each designed to elevate the standard of luxury living. However, none stand out quite like Ipanema at Costa del Este, the first development in the area to feature a private sandy beach.
With its unobstructed ocean views, resort-style amenities, and exclusive location within the gated Costa del Mar community, Ipanema redefines waterfront living in Panama City. This visionary project seamlessly blends sophisticated architecture, modern comforts, and a vibrant coastal lifestyle, making it an unparalleled opportunity for homeowners and investors alike.
Critical mass. Why now? Costa del Este has grown and evolved to the point where it has achieved that moment where all the amenities are in place and people live in their homes in a walkable neighborhood. It’s no longer an emerging market or concept. It’s a reality.
A New Community. The result is Costa del Este is a thriving fun, exciting community. There are places to eat, great schools and nightlife. The streets are full of people from around the world, creating a special energy in the shops and cafes. It is a special place, with young families to retirees enjoying the urban waterfront lifestyle and making Costa del Este their home.
