one killed a mother and 2 children here a few weeks ago here. no insurance no money. the third child a baby will be given away. no father. life is brutal here.

I sure hope they dont put those ugly windturbines everywhere. When i drive by a farm of them i always see about 15% broken. There is alot of backlash in the usa now with off shore ones

it is also an important part of dominican culture. thats why they always use second names so someone doesnt put a curse on them.

Does anyone have house insurance with house on the beach? Is it possible? How expensive might it be for a nice house? tks

I remember it being underwater 20 years ago. the guests were pretty miserable..

Here too every week class or 1\2 class cancelled, plus when it's raining. It's a disgrace. They could fix this in one minute. They only get paid for teaching days.

I know people that were actively buying property there more than 20 years ago. I guess they knew something was coming sometime.

apparently you can only get visa if you use lawyers $15,000 pesos. gee do you think someone in the embassy gets a kickback?? what do you think? let me see 50 a day x 7000= 350,000 a day.

true

this is true. we know this. Their office treatment is the worst you can ever imagine. they treat dominicans like dogs.

where i live in the campo many who have lived here for years are afraid to be seen as the migration comes every few days now. they pay higher rents, and taxi extract huge fares from them to pay for police bribes. Very hard for these people now and I feel very bad for them.

thanks

does that include property or only buildings?

This is good. In the campo where I live they are kind of enforcing it. A month ago they forced 2 businesses ( a colmado and a bar with a pool)to close for a week and they had to pay fines of 100,000 or more.

so if we never sell then dont do it as we wont pay capital gains?

thanks. la sirena in puerto plata i think has this but i wanted my own grinder as it works better and easier to turn maybe

if thats true , then i like that alot. you dont pay more as the value increases.in canada lots of old people where i lived had to sell their homes as the property taxes went crazy.

Not sure what the property taxes will be. If people come to value your house its a great opportuniuty for them to take a propina for lower value. Is the taxon the house, or house and property total value?? If the annual taxes are 1% of the value, a ,10,000,000 value is low , so many people...

for example. i looked everywhere for a pepper grinder. couldnt find one so in one minute got one on amazon. for some car parts easy on amazon and saves alot of travel time and running around
