They could leave in the morning—and be on the beach with you by mid-afternoon!
In your home country, there are lots of direct flights—with airlines adding more every month. And here in the D.R. they can fly into and depart from modern international airports.
No time zone changes either, at least for anyone on Eastern Time. And only an hour or two for everyone else. So no jet lag to deal with.
Many people from the US, Canada and Europe have already made the D.R. their full-time home.
Wherever you live, you’ll find a community to support you. And you’ll be able to tap their invaluable local knowledge.
They can help you:

And at big box stores like Jumbo and Ferreteria, the D.R’s version of Walmart and Home Depot, you need for your home.
Plus, you can tap into a community of welcoming foreigners, which can help ease your transition into your new lifestyle.
Wondering what you’d do for fun and excitement?
You may not realize:

The D.R. is a big country! There’s so much to do.

However, in the D.R…
You’ll never run out of new things to try and interesting places to explore:

(Don’t worry, you still keep your citizenship in your home country.)
Some of the things you’d be eligible for as resident:
Yes, the Dominican real estate market is just like in North America.
A couple decades ago, the government modernized the real estate market. Land registration became more efficient and transparent.
