Great video, a lot of good information. thank you for sharing!

Hi Josie! This is my first time here meeting your video and liking it very much! I live in NY with my family. My hubby and I own a villa in Residencial Hispaniola. We've had it for 10 years and every year we love it more and more. We try to go at least twice in a year. Our daughter is actually getting marry in November in Sosua. We are celebrating her wedding in Residencial Diners Club Restaurant. We are so excited and I'm happy I ran into your videos. I will be watching more. I liked your style and the information you provided. I also love Playero Supermarket. Sosua is a beautiful beach town and that's where my husband and want to retire. My hubby is Dominican and I'm from Puerto Rico. Anyway's I think I'm saying too much, but I'm just happy to have seen your videos. Thanks!

Congratulations on your retirement. Let me suggest to retire in either Puerto Plata or Calbrete. Sosua is a party town and ghetto.

Great video, Josie. Very useful for a future resident of DR! Tks🤗🇵🇷

Hola! I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m planning a move over there from the states. I am Dominican descent so I do have family out there but am doing my own research.

Just followed you. I just got back from the DR, I miss it already. I think KZread recommended your channel as I’ve been subscribing to all these channels of people in the DR and the Philippines. I miss it already. I was there for a month. 🤒 Good luck in your journey. I hope I can make my own videos one day xD

Thank you for such a nice and informative video. Blessed life in paradise.

Thank you so much for sharing. It will be nice to watch more videos of you a day in the life in DR beauty salon, nails options ext…❤

I've been to that exact store. Love DR!

I haven't had any fun lately, 😭 so it was interesting. You bring me joy!❤🙂I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.

400 pesos = $7.20 us dollar, not 9 dollars. Great show thanks. I just subscribed.

Awesome thank you.

Just because it comes from the ground doesn’t make it organic

Dear person thinking of moving to DR. All the local food is by NO means organic. Some of the local food maybe organic. The foods the grow in the ground are all sprayed with pesticides of keep her growth of weeds down and those pesticides may not be regulated as they are in North America. In other words those foods may contain more dangers than you’re used to. Maybe yes maybe no, that would require more research. The good news is most of the tree grown fruits are mostly not sprayed so those maybe organic. Don’t think that if you walk into a supermarket here you will be buying organic foods by default. It is a sensational claim. Even if you went to a small local market the same holds true. You would have basically the same limitations on what you could buy thats organic as you would anywhere else. DR is not some magical organic place unless you go off the beaten path and search for the things and trust those from whom you’re buying them.

The code fish in DR is from normal not from Alaska is 1 example and so on. Many good products that USA dont allow to go overthere because protecting the american producer. DR has more variety.

while all this is great, what are the visa requirements for canadians? if i buy a property -does this allow me to stay in the country? and where do foreigners buy homes? are there any rules about home buying that one needs to know...i am not worried about the price of homes because surely they cannot be more expensive than toronto-...what about the weather? i do not like it too hot and does DR homes have AC? tks

Great questions! There are zero visa requirements for living here and foreigners and locals receive equal treatment when it comes to investing in real estate! The buying process is very straight forward and most people find it easier to purchase here then in their own countries. The DR has an average temperate of 27 Celsius. It’s the perfect temperature year round with July-September being around 31 on average. There’s always a pool or the ocean close by to cool off in! I’m happy to answer any further questions you have or hop on a quick call. Josie@realtordr.com
