I am a 50 something woman who has accepted a position teaching at a private school in Sosua starting either mid-term this year or in August 2008. I understand that this is a gigantic step in my life and that the key to my happiness in Sosua is finding a group of good friends and being safe, comfortable and convenient (as I will not be buying a car, but possibly a scooter) where I live. I think I would like to live in El Batey, close enough to easily and safely walk to town and the beach - using the scooter to go back and forth to school. I am looking to buy a home as the last time I was there I looked at rentals and they seemed worn and expensive. Real Estate there seems like a good investment. I will need a lot of insight and advice over the next months and I am hoping this will be a good place to get it. I have an agent, but I am a labor intensive client as I must almost all my decision making on-line so my agent must do all the "checking-out" properties for me and then has to answer all the questions that arise. At some point, I expect she will tire of it.
I am open to any advice anyone has to offer. Let me hear from you.
