I own a large villa in the Sosua area that is for sale. However, I am presently out of the country and do not intend to return to the DR except to close the sale. The people who were suppose to watch my villa did a terrible job, and I need to find someone to take care of it while I am out of the country.
I am willing to let somone (or a family without children) live in the house rent-free provided they take basic care of it while I am away. By basic care, I expect the house to always be in "show" condition when the real estate people bring clients by to to see it, the guarden should be maintained and the pool clean. I have a guardener to do most of this, so basically the person will just have to ensure the gardener is doing his job. As anyone who lives here knows, many Dominicans require motivation to work and my absence has resulted in a lack of motivation.
The ideal candidate will have experience house-sitting before. I am a very busy person and do not want to have to listen about any problems on a daily bases. I would also expect some sort of a refundable security deposit, or very good references. I would expect contact with myself to be done by email most of the time as I am traveling a lot and unable to take calls most of the time.
Please PM if interested and let me know a bit about yourself.
