The Crest Group Dominicana
People often ask me why they should buy property in the Dominican Republic. Here is my perspective.
Having lived in Punta Cana, Santo Domingo, Santiago, and the North Coast, I am well-positioned to advise on the best market cities here and why. As the broker/owner, I consciously chose Punta Cana and Santo Domingo for our flagship international branch and secondary office. I travel almost weekly to Santo Domingo and frequently visit friends in other cities, including Santiago and Las Terrenas. The reasons these locations stand out—whether you're buying to live or to invest—are numerous.
Punta Cana, Cap Cana, and Bavaro are the premier beach destinations in the Caribbean, each in a class of their own. Currently experiencing significant growth, this expansion will transform Punta Cana's future, extending to Miches and making the eastern part of the Dominican Republic one of the most exciting places to live in the Caribbean and the world. The stunning beach towns offer everything one needs to enjoy paradise, from quaint, walkable beach towns to luxury living and world-class golf—the greater Punta Cana area has it all.
Santo Domingo, the Dominican capital, is a major city in Latin America and serves as the central hub of the Caribbean. The efficient highway system connects it closely with Punta Cana, supporting an incredible economy and booming real estate market. Our office is strategically located in the heart of Santo Domingo, catering to those looking to live or invest in this sprawling metropolis.
Santo Domingo is the heart of the country and its financial center. The city boasts everything from towering condominiums to stately homes. Services and goods are plentiful, featuring a growing gastronomical scene, vibrant nightlife, business opportunities, and a rich history. Nearby, beautiful beaches like Boca Chica and Juan Dolio are easily accessible.
Here are just a few reasons why investing in this paradise is for you:
