Buying land on the north coast

Land on the north coast runs from small residential lots in established Sosúa neighborhoods to large development parcels near Puerto Plata. Our current listings range from $49,900 for a 600 m² lot in La Mulata to a 315-acre parcel at $9,950,000.

We won’t show you a lot until we’ve confirmed who owns it, how you reach it and what you can put on it.

Why buy with Your DR Broker

Questions buyers ask

Yes. Foreigners can buy land in the Dominican Republic with the same ownership rights as Dominican citizens, and you can hold it in your own name or through a company. Land carries more title risk than a finished home, though. Before we show you a lot, we confirm who owns it, that it has legal year-round road access, and what you’re allowed to build. Your independent lawyer then verifies the title and survey before you sign anything. 

A deslinde is the official survey that separates a specific piece of land from a larger parcel and gives it its own title. Without one, the seller may only hold a constancia anotada, a certificate showing they own a share of a bigger parcel. That share isn’t fixed to exact boundaries on the ground. A completed deslinde means the lot has its own surveyed boundaries, its own cadastral number and its own Certificate of Title. Buying a lot without one adds time, cost and risk, so we confirm deslinde status up front. 

Yes. We can introduce you to north-coast builders that our clients have used, but the choice and the contract are yours. Before you hire anyone, visit homes they’ve finished, talk to past clients, and have your lawyer review the contract. Look for a fixed price, a clear schedule of payments tied to construction milestones, and responsibility for permits. Confirm what you’re allowed to build on the lot before you pay for design.
