Why new developments here are a wise choice

The fundamentals that make this one of the Caribbean's most dependable property markets.

Confotur tax incentives

Qualifying new developments can be exempt from property transfer tax and annual property tax for up to 15 years, materially improving net returns.

Strong rental yields

Managed resort and beachfront units typically return 6 to 9 percent gross, supported by consistent year-round tourism.

Capital appreciation

Continued infrastructure, airport and hotel investment has driven steady price growth across the region.

Full foreign ownership

Overseas buyers hold the same freehold rights as residents, with a straightforward, title-insured buying process.

Year-round tourism

The Dominican Republic is the most visited country in the Caribbean, and this region receives the majority of arrivals.

Lifestyle and amenities

Beaches, golf, marinas, international schools and private hospitals make it as liveable as it is investable.

Investment outlook

The medium-term outlook remains positive. Record tourism, ongoing airport and road investment and a steady pipeline of branded residences continue to draw international buyers, while beachfront land in the most established communities is increasingly scarce.
