Why a local agent matters at this stageA local agent who knows the Samaná market saves you from overpaying, helps you find off-market listings, and navigates the cultural and language barriers that trip up foreign buyers. Property managers are essential if you plan to rent — they handle guests, maintenance, and emergencies while you're abroad.DR Buying Process Guide →

Questions to ask before engaging

Good agencies answer all five without flinching.

01How many transactions with foreign buyers have you closed in the past year?
02Do you represent the seller, the buyer, or both? What is your commission structure?
03Can you provide references from past international clients?
04What neighborhoods do you specialize in, and what are the price trends there?
05For property managers: what is your fee structure, and what does it include (cleaning, maintenance, guest communication)?
