We have just subscribed to the forum and are enjoying our reading. Thanks!
We are seriously thinking about moving to the DR and to live there for a few years (3 years plus). This is with the idea of bringing in the region of US$ 150,000 to exchange into pesos to invest in the Central Bank based on our information that this would generate in the region of 50% interest.
We are just beginning our research into this potential move and we are aware that this will not be without risk. However it would be great to hear from anyone doing this already and to know your predictions for the peso following the commencement of the new government in 3 months time.
Key questions we are looking at are - how easy is it currently to move funds out of the DR if necessary and to convert from pesos to dollars? Is it possible to buy large amounts of dollars immediately? What information sources do you use to follow changes in the exchange rate and to get investment forecasts and analysis of risks?
Any ideas about the rental cost of a 4 bed house in for example Puerta Plata, Santiago?
Thanks for any input and ideas you are willing and able to share with us beginners!
We'll keep it shorter from now on!!
Cheers and enjoy the sunshine in paradise...
