20+ years of on-the-ground Dominican Republic real estate experience, now powered by AI to help every buyer make informed decisions.
Dominican Republic real estate has no MLS. No centralized pricing data. No public transaction records. Agents represent both sides of the deal. Asking prices are routinely inflated 20–40% above fair value. Title status is unclear on 60% of land. International buyers — especially first-timers — have no way to know if they're getting a fair deal or walking into a costly mistake.
Evalua makes the opaque transparent. We built the tool we wished existed when we started buying property in Samaná two decades ago. Paste a listing URL and get what no agent will tell you: how the price compares to market data, what the property can actually earn as a rental, what CONFOTUR saves you in taxes, and whether the title situation should concern you — all in under 60 seconds.
Our team has been active in the Samaná peninsula since the early 2000s — before Las Terrenas had paved roads to the airport. We've watched the market evolve from a handful of expat-owned villas to a thriving international investment destination.
That history gives us something no algorithm alone can provide: ground truth. We know which neighborhoods retain value, which developers deliver on promises, which legal structures actually protect buyers, and which "deals" are traps. That knowledge is baked into every analysis Evalua produces.
Acquired and managed rental properties during Samaná's early growth phase. Built relationships with local attorneys, surveyors, and property managers that remain active today.
Began systematically tracking transactions, listing prices, rental yields, and development activity across Samaná. Built a database of 2,000+ properties with verified price-per-square-meter data.
Combined our market database with AI analysis to create a tool that does in 60 seconds what used to take weeks of local research. Launched publicly to help every buyer — not just those with local connections — make data-driven decisions.
Every Evalua analysis draws from multiple verified data sources. We believe in transparency about where our numbers come from — it's the only way to build trust in an opaque market.
