Buying process

Purchasing property in the Dominican Republic is surprisingly easy and with Coldwell Banker we will make your purchase experience even easier.

Below are the simple purchasing procedure points:

Once we have helped you find the property of your dreams, a preliminary Sale /Purchase Agreement with the owner of the property should be signed, which contains the basic terms and conditions applicable for the sale/purchase of the property. This should be accompanied by a 10% deposit which will be held in a lawyers account and released at the time of closing. The Seller is committed to sell the property to you after signing this agreement.

Next step:

The Lawyer/Notary will typically require the following documentation to process the sale/purchase agreements:

• Full name and particulars of the parties. If the seller is married, the spouse must also sign. Two copies of identification are required of each person, (Passport, Dominican I.D. card, driver's license).
• Legal description of the property to be purchased.
• Purchase price and payment terms.
• Default clause.
• Date of delivery of the property.
• Due diligence required or done.
• Obligation by seller of signing the Deed of Sale upon receipt of final payment.

Notary process may take maximum 6 -8 weeks, the charges vary depending on complexity of the transaction. You will be contacted by the notary or your Coldwell Banker broker for an appointment to sign the deed and make final payments prior to the appointment date.
It is recommended that your financing is in place by the time that the official Deeds of Sale/Purchase and Transfer of Property are signed at the notary office.

Closing Costs

When buying a home, the following cost will be incurred by the Buyer.
The closing costs are calculated as follows:

• Transfer tax and stamp duty. Taxes are paid based on the market value of the property as determined by the tax authorities, not on the price of purchase stated in the deed of sale.
• Title transfer
• Notary fees

Property Taxes

Properties held in the name of an individual are subject to an annual property tax ("IPI") of 1% of government-appraised value in excess of RD$6,500,000 pesos except for empty lots or farms outside city limits and properties whose owner is 65 years old or older, who has registered it in his or her name for more than 15 years and has no other property.

If the property is held by a corporation, no property tax is due. Instead, the corporation must pay a 1% tax on corporate assets. 
However, any income tax paid by the corporation will constitute a credit toward the tax on assets, so that if corporate income taxes paid are equal to or higher than the taxes on assets due, the corporation will have no obligation to pay taxes on its assets.

If you have any further questions regarding buying a home, than please do not hesitate to write us at info@repubblicadominicana.org   we are here to serve you! 

Pre construction

The Dominican Republic is seeing a flourish of construction activity and most of these developments offer pre construction prices from luxurious beach front condominiums to private residential villas.

Real estate clients looking for affordable investment prospects are finding pre-construction planned developments to be the perfect opportunity. With the majority of land projects being in prime locations, a smart investor gains the benefit of being in a desirable neighborhood at below market value prices. Once the development reaches completion investors can be sure of a profitable return on investment.

As well as the investment incentive, a purchaser would also have the added advantage of working with the developer to personalize the finer finishing points on the interior design.

We have numerous pre-construction properties available online. Take a look today and see what investment opportunities are waiting for you.

Celebrate International Jazz Day and Music Education in Cabarete

Sea Horse Ranch Travel & News, April 2015

Celebrate International Jazz Day and Music Education 

International Jazz Day is celebrated annually on April 30 with simultaneous events around the world. It is organized by UNESCO to honor “the virtues of jazz as an educational tool, and a force for peace, unity, dialogue and enhanced cooperation among people“.

The events in Cabarete will include free concerts in the afternoon with students from the “Casa de Arte de Sosúa” String Program, and "Escuela Libre Monte de la Jagua" of Moca to be held in the neighborhoods of La Ciénaga and the Callejón de la Loma.

In the evening at 6pm, a fundraising event will be held at The Beach Club at Sea Horse Ranch, which will include a jazz concert by the talented Rafaelito Mirabal and “Systema Temperado”, and a fashion show. Tickets are $100 usd and proceeds will benefit the FEFUJAZZ music program.

FEDUJAZZ is a non-profit foundation whose main objective it is to bring about social change through music education of Dominican youth. The FEDUJAZZ music program aims to educate and expose Dominican children ages 7-18 with structured music programs that enhance their overall education and learning, and increase their opportunities in life.

FEDUJAZZ has a new space to call home in Cabarete in a rental building which offers classroom and administrative space. Currently there are over fifty students being provided free musical instruction and training, under the instruction of music professor from Santiago, Jefry Casimiro, with program oversight from Santy Rodriguez from Santo Domingo.

Cabarete Caves

Right in Cabarete’s back yard sits El Choco National park, several lagoons, and Cabarete Caves (La Cuevas de Cabarete). The caves are millions of years old, and yet are one of Cabarete’s best-kept secrets. Exploring the tropical landscape of El Choco National Park is a very relaxing experience, with its vast area of jungle, lagoon, caves, and open back country to explore.

There are several dry caves that have shallow pools suitable for swimming, and are safe for families and children. Local companies provide sustainable tours of El Choco National Park with biking, hiking and boat rides, respecting the natural resources of the area which is a landmark for eco-tourism in the province of Puerto Plata.

Diving is also possible in the El Choco caves, but cave diving requires a different training than the open water certification, and it is advisable to go with a certified guide with specialized experience in these caves.

Properly known as the Sistema La Escalera, the world-class caves in Cabarete are comprised of two very different cave systems, Cueva de los Murcielagos and Cueva La Escalera, which are connected through a huge dry cave with no outside access. The caves have beautiful and irreplaceable mineral formations, called stalactites and stalagmites, and these formations take thousands of years to form.

 Phillip Lehman, Founding Member and Vice President of the Dominican Republic Speleological Society, explains “The caves in Cabarete are very different than the rest of the country, the tunnels appear more eroded and ancient, and the colors are truly unique to the Cabarete caves alone.” Indeed, flooded caves are geological time capsules where fossil remains and archeological artifacts have been perfectly preserved.  Scientific exploration and preservation is ongoing.
