Escape miserable winters + TRULY recharge throughout the year + Fund your vacations with rental income
Winters kind of suck right?
Not in the Dominican Republic!…
With a vacation home in the D.R, trade the cold and damp for endless summer.
For a few weeks—or a few months—EVERY year!
The D.R. is on a tropical island, which means:
So…
Instead of shovelling snow you’re wearing flip flops and barbecuing on the patio — even in January!
Ever come back from a vacation tired and stressed out? Like you didn’t have enough time to relax?
Consider the alternative:
With your own home-away-from home in the D.R. you can truly relax and recharge.
Instead of having to book a new destination every time you want to get away, you’ve got a familiar place to return to.
That’s convenience.
You never need to worry if your accommodations will be up to par.
You don’t need to navigate new surroundings.
You know exactly what to expect before you leave.
That limits your stress.
And from the moment you arrive in your own vacation home, you’re actually on vacation. No more “needing a vacation from your vacation” when you get back.
That’s relaxing!
Wouldn’t it be great if your vacations paid for themselves?
It’s possible. Many of our past clients use their vacation homes as income properties.
You can too.

Rent your home out when you’re not here. And use a portion of the rental income to fund your visits to the D.R.
It can be as turnkey as you want:
Vacation home + income property = an affordable dream lifestyle in paradise!

Low cost of quality homes + Endless adventure + Get here quick + Everything you need for daily living
Prices for homes in most sunshine destinations in the Caribbean and Central America have skyrocketed.
Yet in the D.R. real estate is still reasonably priced — and that includes ocean view properties.
What’s the cost of a typical vacation home?
Imagine an ocean view condo for $150K. Or a 3 bedroom villa—with a pool!—in a gated community, for $250,000.
There are so many great options. Something for every budget.
The team at Dreaming D.R. will help you figure out the right type of home for your needs.
It’s your dream and we’re here to make it a reality!
Wondering what you’d do for fun and excitement?
There’s plenty to do. You’ll never get bored in the D.R.
You may not realize:
The D.R. is a big country! There’s so much to do.
Consider what it’d be like on a small island. Once you’ve toured the quaint little town and climbed the hill that locals call a mountain, well, that’s pretty much it…
However, in the D.R…
You’ll never run out of new things to try and interesting places to explore:
No matter how often you come you’ll never get bored in the D.R!
The less time you spend on a plane, the more time you have for your vacation.
Which is why the D.R. is a great choice. It’s so close.
If you’re coming from the US or Canada, you could be at your D.R. vacation home in 3 or 4 hours.
Leave in the morning—and be on sitting by the pool by mid-afternoon!
Also, eventually you could retire full time to your D.R. home. Learn more about relocating to the Dominican Republic here.
You’ll have no trouble getting all the essentials for daily living:
Modern grocery chains like Nacional and Super Pola are stocked with many of the products you use at home.
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.

It’s a good question:
Can you—as a foreigner in the D.R.—actually own property there?
Yep, you sure can!
Which means you can develop your property however you like. You can sell it, or pass it on to your children.
It’s your private property.
Meaning, the government can’t take your property away from you. In fact, foreigners’ property rights are enshrined in the country’s constitution!
Which is why thousands of Americans, Canadians and Europeans own property here now.
Buying property in the Dominican Republic is a lot easier than you might think.
If you really wanted, you could come to the D.R, find a home and make an offer, then make a down payment—all on the same trip!
(All transactions are in US dollars. If you need financing, that can be arranged too.)
Of course, like any property transaction, there are the usual legal matters—which is where we come in:
We can connect you with a lawyer (who can work with your lawyer back home) and guide you through the paperwork.
The team at Dreaming D.R. has helped hundreds of people purchase homes here. We know the process. We’ll make it easy for you too.
The D.R. wants to encourage foreign investment, including real estate.

(Don’t worry, you still keep your citizenship in your home country.)
Some of the things you’d be eligible for as resident:

Yes!
