A definite possibility
Since vacationing in Punta Cana in Dominican Republic in 2014 pretty much on a whim, my husband and I were eager to get off resort to see if the landscape and people of Dom Rep were the right fit.
my tripadvisor review
So we booked flight to Punta Cana because they were cheapest and rented a car for about a week to drive across the country to the north coast and rented a one bedroom casita right on the sea.
This setting was probably out of our financial reach, but we wanted to have the camparison of a direct-on-the-ocean lot versus 180 degree distant view and discern what distance gives us the optimal view and takes advantage of the breezes that one finds up in the hills above the ocean.
We had contacted a real estate agents at DRcoastalproperties.com and juanperdomo.com. While in Cabrera we saw lots, and small houses ready to be used, and the aforementioned partial build. Sebastian from DRcoastalproperties showed us a little 2 bedroom 1.5 bath home that needed fixes. It has a pool and what's more, the two adjacent lots could be purchased with the house and pool for less than half the asking price of the partially built home. The house itself is not a dream home, but it could be a nice vacation house once it's updated and pool is brought online. And the best possibility...two extra lots to build a home later if we choose. The problem? This is all one year too early!
Sebastian however would inform us that as a foreigner purchases are cash based and owner financing is a common thing if the seller is motivated. That might work with out time line if Thomas and I are willing to roll the die!
