This may have already been posted somewhere but, if not, HGTV has a segment showing an American couple shopping for a vacation home in Cabarete/Sosua. 9:30 eastern time. Could be fun.

That couple was a real estate agent's dream. Anyone considering buying a house in the DR should watch the show and do exactly the opposite of what they did. First question after seeing the first house for $439,000 was something like "Wow this is beautiful... is it negotiable?" Agents response "we like to think everything is negotiable" LOL.

They should have done their research on dr1. Probably would have saved at least 100k.

Well, they probably thought it was a bargain. According to the website, they had a budget of US$600,000.

Ha! I just realized that there are two DR episodes. The first one is about a woman and the second one (the link in this post) is about the British couple. Check the dates and time on the links, one of them will be aired in the next few days while both will be re-aired in March.
