Trade Winds has titles for the condos. The Palms do not and I am not able to tell you what the progress is in getting them. Mr. Blisset should have delivered them many years ago. Despite the Palms not having titles yet they still sell and sometimes for more that the equivalent Trade Winds condo that does have a title. Do not ask me to explain why. I do not know the answer.

I think the difference is the excellent administration at the Palms. Wish they would take over at Tradewinds as I'm sure it would increase our values. I know of no one here that cares in a positive way about Blissett. Harry, the current administrator here is a puppet of Blissett.

I could not believe how great the place looks. They pay 6% on downpayment and will charge 7% for financing--get your figures straight. I know the developer and his wife--great people. They have been in country 23 years--must be doing something right! Been There

You sound like a Communist who never got over it and if you do not like how the capitalist world works and you prefer living the communist life style then you should go back to where you came from. There is no need for you to suffer here anymore unless you are a wanted criminal in your home country and that you can not return or you will go to jail. It is my guess that is exactly your problem because no sane person would stay in my country if they dislike it so much. Please tell me your full name so that we can check you out with Interpol.
Oh, that is so rude and uneducated! I wish the mods could read this message and kick you out for attacking people so vialently! I am Russian, in Russia right now, where all "the comunists come from", you know, but i like traveling and i live in different parts of the globe because i like doing so. Will you let me and my family in "your" country or you will call us criminals right at the airport? It offended me so much that you call my compatriots "wanted criminals" just because they live abroad and have their, maybe wrong, opinions!

I am sorry that I am so uneducated that I thought all Communists came from Russia. I am so uneducated that I thought there were Communists in China and in Cuba and Korea and Vietnam and more. If you read my words properly you will see that there is no link between the person being a Communist and my suggestion that he could be a wanted criminal. I can explain it again for you. That person complains about life in the Dominican Republic and he talks about how terrible it is. No normal person would stay in a foreign country if he hated it that much unless he had a reason for not returning to his home land. Do you understand now? It has nothing to do with his Communist ways. If you still do not understand you can let me know and I will explain it again.

His username is AK47, so i figured he was russian and your ways of bringing extra unnecessary comments to the interesting discussion made me jump in this thread, sorry about that! As for the person living in the country he calls terrible...hmmm, beats me, may be you know him better, but i checked a couple of his comments and didn't find him hating Dominicana. Well, you know that any country has its problems. If someone choses a certain country and spends 5-10 years there, i presume he loves that country for the most part and tends to express his opinion on something that might be terrible about it... And here comes someone calls him a criminal and so on and so forth. He must be feeling so bad after reading your comments, really! I think we should speak more to the point of Garden condos instead :)

It is possible that he is Russian but I do not know. I do know that he hates our country and if you read all his previous posts you will know it too. You can read my post again and you will see that I did not call him a criminal. I only told him that there was no need for him to stay here and suffer unless he was a wanted criminal in his home country meaning that he would not be able to go back home for fear of prison and that could explain why he stays here despite his hatred for everything Dominican. You are correct that we should not be going of the subject like this and we should be talking about the condos instead. Pardon me please.

A friend of mine was really interested in purchasing a renovated Gardens condo until her lawyer started the due diligence and found out that he does not have the titles to the Gardens. They are still compiled into the hotel title and have not been individually titled.

And further to the previous post, even with an optimistic date for acquiring the titles, it will not happen for at least a year. Did the agent tell you that? Apparently, the agents aren't telling anyone about the lack of titles and the amount of time that will be required for their acquisition.

Thank you for the information, no time scale was mentioned for the condo receiving its title. For me I think its too much of a risk. Don't want the hassle of chasing up a title.

Well thats a good point why has nobody disagreed with the above posting. Well lets have it from the horses mouth, anybody in Trade winds or the Palms have any comments? After all there is no point in investing in something where you just get promises not a title.

If Ronald Blisset is involved, run, do not walk away from the project.

He is well known for appropriating properties he has previously sold, and reselling them to unsuspecting tourists knowing that by the time they get around to asking for the title they will just give up and go home. He has sold one house that I know of on a project of his in El Choco four seperate times in the last 8 years. When the buyer gets close to completing the deal, he cuts electricity, or illegally shuts off their water supply. Anything to get them to give up and go home so he can run the same con on someone else a few months later. When the fiscals do start to chase him he goes home to Alabama, waits for the heat to lay off, and does it all over again.

Sorry that it has to be said, but some people just never get it, never fight it, and everyone else suffers from con men like this.

IT IS AGAINST THE LAW in the Dominican Republic ... for anyone to rent or sell property he does not own! Don not buy or agree to buy property from anyone who can not provide title paperwork in his own name. He likely is NOT the legal owner and is running a fraud scheme. Blisset does this all the time. Have a trusted Dominican property rights attorney review all documents beforehand to avoid being defrauded and losing both your money, and the property!

IT IS AGAINST THE LAW in the Dominican Republic ... for anyone other than the government to sell or charge for well water or water system connection fees (Ley 1962-5862 Art 118). Blisset does this all the time. Don't be the next victim.

Interesting information

We have decided not to get involved in this project, as we are not interested in problems and will not purchase anthing without a title.
What I do not get is nearly all the agents, including some large well know companies have these properties listed. Surely this is not good publicity for the company long term, they make some commission but for that they lose all the resect of the customer that gets ripped off plus many other potential clients that are linked to that customer.

This is a good point and well made Yorkie. I have a real estate office and we only list property where we have seen some evidence of ownership, this could be title or sales contract. This of course is not PROOF of ownership so we strongly recommend reputable lawyers to check everything out before ANY money changes hands. To secure the property you want you can pay a deposit with a "promise of sale" but the lawyer should hold the deposit until they are satisfied with all the requirements laid out in the promise of sale contract ie proof of ownership, clear title etc.

Can I just add that I am not making any comment on Ron Blisset here as I have had no direct dealings with him!

We just saw the Garden Condos, and trust the lady that showed us. They are well done and I was told that the Bank Popular is backing it all, AND there is CLEAR title. so? Only what I was told today. The place looks wonder. But as with all things it should be checked.

This is only what we were told today.

AFAIK, the entire property is still in Banco Santa Cruz' name, there are no deslindas yet who knows when there will be? It is not that easy to "re-title" individual units after being zoned as a hotel.

See post #34 in the thread "Is it really your property" posted just before yours was in this thread.
Refer to Guido Perdomo if you need more information.

No titles delivered to owners. There is one title for the property as a Hotel owned by banco Santa Cruz. Ronald Blisset has been promising titles since two years. One acquaintance purchased a piece of paper, directly from Ronald, less than one month ago for $20,000. No title. Just a promise of sale. It really doesn't matter who is promising. If the paper is not in hand, yo have nothing. Perdomo included.

There's an old Dominican dicho for this.

Cuarto al mano, culo al suelo.
