I have been looking for an apartment for the last month or so. Through my experience I am now preferring to rent from an expat than Dominican. I won't go into all my reason's (I'm sure you know them anyways), but after having my Dominican friend talk to the owners and then I arrive and they raise the price everytime, I'm looking for convenience.
1. Would prefer a landlord who speaks english.
- I speak spanish, but for some reason whenever something is broke I can't understand any of their spanish nor they my english. This usually lasts until rent is due.
2. Don't want to move too far from malecon. Atleast walking distance.
3. I'm looking for 2 bedroom for when I have friends and family in town.
4. I prefer with furniture, but will get without.
What I currently have:
2 bedroom, 1 bath in secure building 1/5 block from malecon. Walking distance to La Sirena.
All utilities included and paying 15,000 pesos.
----> I'm starting to think that I'm not going to find a better deal.
As always, your wisdom is always appreciated...
