Still trying...

Title problems. Unless titles are clear, no permits can be issued or submitted.

Wow, thats quite a setback as they have been working that deal since 2007. It seemed like it would put Barahona on the map. Hopefully it doesnt do the opposite and scare off wouldbe investors.I guess its obvious one should not even enter RE negotiations if a deslinde is not already in hand. This probably means a large percentage of listed properties are not worth a look. As you mentioned about waterfront properties are always at risk due to government mind changes. This I think is another serious concern foreignors fear investing in the DR.

I have been looking on the Juan Dolio living website. The new info is that the Pinewood Studios water tank is open and that construction has begun on the indoor studios. Has anyone here gone out to see these facilities? Can you visit or is it all off limits? I am about 1 mile away from the water tank and would love to see that. I sent a CV/Resume for work at that facility without any response. I want to pedal out there in Sept to look/inquire, without getting a shotgun aimed at my face.:rolleyes:

I have been watching activity at the water park near the Guayacanes area over the past few months, and each time I go by the place it seems empty.. on the weekends, perhaps a few people are visible from the highway.
I was wondering if anyone has been there, and the general impressions about the place.. including value for cost.
