Why Caribbean Real Estate in the Dominican Republic?

Currently real estate in Europe is stalling, while America is still mainly in decline, particularly when you look at places like Florida.  Real estate in the Dominican Republic is still some of the least expensive in the Caribbean and prices have now bottomed out. 

Property, even beachfront property, is at an all time low and is an exceedingly good long term investment; while tourism has started to increase again.  Official government figures for January to March, 2011 show a 2.86% increase to 1,256,767 and the Caribbean Tourism Organisation shows an even higher increase from January to April of 5.6%, with still the highest number of visitors in the Caribbean.

According to forecasts of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the economies of Latin American and the Caribbean will grow strong again this and next year.  The Dominican Republic is placed second in Central America and  the Caribbean, closely following Panama, in terms of anticipated growth, with a forecast rate of 5.5% in both 2011 and 2012.

All year round sunshine, a stable currency, only 1.5 hours from Miami and under 4 hours from New York all make the Dominican Republic a desirable destination.
