ELEVATED LUXURY HOMES FOR INTENTIONAL LIVING

We offer fixed-price contracts because we believe our clients deserve complete price certainty. Once your design is finalized, you’ll know exactly what your investment is before construction begins. Any changes you request during construction are handled through transparent, approved change orders.

Mike and the iBUILD Team

It takes an enormous skill set to build something that’s meant to last and worthy of deep admiration and appreciation. That’s true for stunning Costa Rican residences. And it’s also true when it comes to professional relationships. With the establishment of iBUILD Costa Rica, owner and CEO Mike Strickland is putting his exceptional skills to work doing both.

On one hand, Mike is focusing his new company’s efforts on building truly spectacular private residences in the paradise-like environments of Ojochal, an ocean-side oasis in the Costa Rican province of Puntarenas. On the other hand, Mike will be pouring considerable energy into establishing the vitally important connections between home-buying clients and the local architects, designers, and master craftsmen responsible for delivering the vision. It’s the realisation of a dream for Mike, a Canadian born and raised construction project visionary with more than two decades of experience turning blueprints into incomparable residential properties through professional stewardship of the relationships required to make that happen, they are Home Builders in Costa Rica.

iBUILD Costa Rica

At iBUILD Costa Rica, our inspiration comes from international cutting-edge building techniques and emotionally provocative design. We take pride in our construction expertise, but imaginative design is where it all begins. It would be easy enough to recreate the luxury residences found adorning the pages of beautiful home publications from around the world.

Your Vision Drives Us

Perhaps you already have an architect working to realize your vision. Once that completed vision is handed over to builders, whose hands will be guiding the project? The Costa Rican construction industry is not the same as those in North America or Europe; standards vary, work ethic and skill levels vary. It’s not your architect’s job to manage those responsible for building your home. That’s where iBUILD Costa Rica comes in with our experienced project management skills. Hand over the project lead to us, and we will put a skilful eye to overseeing the construction of your home.

Mike Strickland saved my husband and myself from an unbelievable mess. We were doing a major renovation on our home and after getting proposals from 6 different architect/engineer companies, we chose one that was a terrible mistake. We were 10 months into a job that was to be completed in 5. We did not know Mike until after the project began, but in less than a week after we finally were able to end the contract with the unqualified individuals,he became our savior and recommended a project manager to complete the job. We have seen more progress on the renovation in 3 weeks than we did in 10 months. The quality of work has improved and we finally see a light at the end of the tunnel. Save yourself from the nightmare we endured and hire IBUILD Costa Rica from the start. I can’t recommend this business enough.

Mike is super details-oriented and provides high quality products, design, and construction for his clients. Always seeking to achieve a higher standard, Mike is super curious, knowledgeable, and quick to help others realize their dreams. I wish we had found Mike prior to our building experience in Costa Rica as he is incredibly professional and I’ve been very impressed with his helpful communication.

Toby Carson

I normally don’t do public posting On Google as a rule, however, when I do view outstanding workmanship and professionalism that is backed up by fair pricing, It makes it hard for me to resist not promoting! Costa Rica is very fortunate to have received such an amazing articulate builder as Mike Strickland – owner of IBUILD! He listens and cares about every detail

Mario Artavia

Mike is a dedicated builder and homebuilder who innovates, interested in being at the forefront of the industry, offering my clients the best possible products. We've begun a close working relationship.

Brad Dean

As a private contractor working to capture photography and video of the progress of an iBuild Costa Rica home, I can happily vouch for the high level of quality that they put into every detail of their builds. Design, materials, sound and stable structure (uncommon in Costa Rica) are all top notch. iBuild will build you a home that will be as beautiful and functional as it is durable and long lasting.

Les Corrigan

Building our dream home in Costa Rica was seamless with iBUILD. Mike and his team managed every detail, from design to project completion, with precision and transparency. Their expertise and local connections made a huge difference!
