Very unlikely that you will find a furnished apartment with 24 hr. electric in Puerto Plata for the approx. 9,000 pesos/month that you want to spend. There are very few furnished apartments in POP which are not charging tourist prices. You may want to consider an Apart-Hotel.

Jeff in Torre Alta rents out apartments with 24 hr electricity. But as Howmar says, furnished apts here are targeting longterm tourists, so the prices are higher. You might get a studio at his place for around 300-350 US a month.
His email is jeffrey@verizon.net.do

Sorry, did not provide enough info

Thanks for the info, I have stayed at Jeffrey's 3 times, just returned from 3 months there, looking for an apartment for 9 to 10 months.

just don't rent furnished!

with the ridiculous tourist prices in DR, specially for furnished app, in 10 months you will pay the furniture 2 or 3 times.

Just be aware the unfurnished in the DR is not the equivalent of unfurnished elsewhere. Anything the previous tenant doesn't take with him the landlord will strip from the apartment before renting it. That means no refrigerator, no stove, no fans, no invertor, no gas tank, no hot water heater, etc., etc.
