What is one of the biggest concerns when buying property abroad? Safety.
No buyer wants to invest their money without knowing whether the property, the developer, and the transaction have been properly verified. But attractive renderings, a good conversation with the developer, or even visiting the property are not enough to determine whether your investment is safe.
In this video, Attorney Johan Confidente, a real estate lawyer based in Punta Cana, explains why proper due diligence should come before you sign a contract, send money, or commit to a property in the Dominican Republic.
Before moving forward, your attorney should help you:
* Verify the legal status of the property
* Confirm that the title is free and clear
* Review the developer’s legal track record
* Identify potential legal concerns or unpaid obligations
* Review the documentation before you sign or pay
* Make sure your interests are independently represented
Don’t let emotions make the decision before the legal verification is complete.
Before you say yes to the developer, make sure you have answered the most important question: Is my investment safe?
