Mortgage / bank lendingSpanish
Why a local lender matters at this stageMost foreign buyers pay cash, but Dominican banks do offer USD mortgages to qualified buyers (typically 50-70% LTV at 7-14% annual). Understanding your financing options and tax obligations — including CONFOTUR exemptions — can save you tens of thousands of dollars.Financing Calculator →

Questions to ask before engaging

Good lenders and advisors answer all five without flinching.

01Do you offer USD-denominated mortgages to foreign nationals?
02What is the maximum LTV ratio, interest rate, and term available?
03What documentation do I need to provide (proof of income, credit history, etc.)?
04How long does the approval process typically take?
05Can you explain the annual property tax (IPI) obligations and any CONFOTUR exemptions?
