The Dominican Republic's Latin flavour is a sharp contrast to the character of many nearby islands, especially the British and French influenced ones, and this is reflects in both the local music and cuisine. Property in Dominican Republic is still very competitively priced to many Caribbean islands, and with the government officially welcoming foreign investment, property investors have been keeping an eye on its property market. Government initiatives include an international marketing campaign to attract tourists from around the world and pumping pesos into tourism related infrastructure.

Dominican Republic has seven international airports, more than any Caribbean island, which is another attraction for property investors and holiday-makers alike. Buying a property in Dominican Republic is a relatively simple process and with property prices only starting to rise on the island, long and short-term investors will not want to miss out.
