Lending in the Dominican Republic

The process of mortgage lending in the Dominican Republic is quite simple. There are several ways to obtain a mortgage for both an individual and a legal entity. First, you can apply for a loan from one of the Dominican Banks or directly to the developer of the residential project. Banks provide a loan of up to 60 on the value of the property, depending on the area and the level of the residential project. Loans are provided for land, villas, apartments and construction. There is no limit on the amount of loans issued. The bank needs property and life insurance for the borrower, as well as proof of income received, in any currency. The time it takes to get a loan is 3-4 weeks. The interest rate is from 5 to 12. It should be noted that the recipient independently pays the bank legal costs for the issuance of loan documents, including the appraiser.
