It does not sound like it is being done for "eminent domain" reasons as I read the article. Anyone have more information?

i thought this had been addressed and resolved years ago. it was happening, wherein unscrupulous guys were using title scams to fleece expats, but i thought that the authorities had come out swinging..

I have a source that lives in Cofresi.....she has lived there for about 7 years, owns her house and was in the real estate business for many years in New York.....according to her this story is exaggerated...she said its green area lots that already belong to the government that are being sold....nothing about villas being taken over....I suggest you read detrasdelrumor site with a bit more critical mind.....

So Joan you are saying this could be Fake News? Guess it's a world wide phenomenon.

Someone attempted to do this in my development in Cabarete. They hired a lawyer to try and take over various properties with fake titles. I went to the court hearing and the judge told the lawyer after listening to his story to stop talking, don't say one more word, and get out of the court room, or else.

It has been previously mentioned that the information source cited, can at times, be relegated to sensationalized tabloid rubbish.
