About Matthew Bernard
Chief Executive Officer and Real Estate Broker
As an experienced real estate professional at Bernard Realty, I combine extensive market knowledge with strategic business acumen to serve Costa Rica’s commercial real estate sector. My foundation in business management brings valuable perspective to every transaction, enabling me to analyze opportunities through both investment and operational lenses.
My expertise lies in transforming complex market data into actionable insights. Whether collaborating with seasoned developers or emerging investors, I develop tailored strategies that align with each client’s unique objectives. This detailed approach to site selection, investment analysis, and value optimization ensures every client benefits from opportunities that drive long-term growth and profitability.
What truly distinguishes my practice is the intersection of deep market knowledge and strategic thinking. Having grown up immersed in Costa Rica’s real estate landscape through my father Rico Bernard’s influence, I combine this inherited insight with my own business-focused perspective. This synthesis allows me to identify opportunities others might miss and guide clients toward decisions that maximize both immediate value and future potential.
I believe real estate is fundamentally about building lasting relationships and creating enduring value. This philosophy, paired with my detailed market knowledge and strategic mindset, has helped establish Bernard Realty as a trusted name in Costa Rica’s dynamic real estate market, where every decision is guided by experience, integrity, and a commitment to exceeding expectations.
