Hello, Caribbean E. I have a question for you,, If you own a home in The D.R. do you have to pay sewer and trash utilities? and if so do you know the name of any companies in Santo Domingo, Santiago. Puerto Plata, or Punta Cana?

[@mrvisitador1]

Love it!

[@billramos2846]

Happy for you guys and many blessings. I hear many cities have their electricity goes on and off during the day. do you have an inverted in case your light goes off and how often and second who replaces them?

[@CaribbeanE]

Back up generator and it only goes off/on when there is a problem with weather as a factor not because it’s regulated by the city

[@melodaripper]

Great info thanks for sharing.. i’ve been considering moving my family there possibly 2023. We’ve purchased 15.5 acres close to Salinas Bani about 35-45 min drive from the city.

Why does your apt cost $800 month ? My friend's apartment which is similar to yours and in the same area not far at all but costs half as much? His çame unfurnished and he had to pay for ac installation.

Because ours has everything

What about any if health care .. I need more info about health care

[@CaribbeanE]

There is a video on healthcare on our channel: kzbin.info/www/bejne/moOxd2R3fsqIiKs

[@forcedair92gt94]

Our health insurance per year is well over $7000 without vision. That's before you actually use it. Our monthly bills were just under $350 with mild weather in Texas. During late spring/summer that will shoot up another $100 because of AC use. So, it looks to be COL would be a little less than half there compared to the US for us. The same can be said for Mexico.

So what's the name of the app

What app?

[@chrismccain8575]

[@toddwinans1754]

Are real estate prices the same as what we see online or are they cheaper when your on the ground going through locals. My wife’s parents are from Moca DR and we would love to get a small plot of land one day as a hobby farm. Keep up the content... you both come across as real and down to earth. Cheers

[@CaribbeanE]

Remember to watch the Corotos app video so you can see prices and make sure your paying attention because they write numbers differently and specify if it is USD or DOP, for example they list a monthly price of 1.000 and you think its one hundred but it is $1,000 USD. and we've seen homes for sale listed as 1250.00 and its $125,000 USD so ask for clarity to the owner.

Hey Caribbean E & Tina shout out to you guys from las colinas Santiago D.R . Not very far from los gardines .Well said guys & very helpful info .

What about any specific age you need to get health insurance in the DR? We are planing to retire after 62. Do you recommend to travel and get the insurance at 60 or so?

[@kristi.kervin]

My mums fiancé is Dominican. They are having trouble finding clear information on how they can get married, both in the DR and in the US. The info he gets is different than the info she gets. And why can’t he just get on a plane to visit the US? I just want the both to be happy, and want to help figure all this out. Is it more realistic for her to move there or for him to come here??? Subscriber# 906!!!!

[@CaribbeanE]

They must get married in BOTH countries because marriage in the USA is not recognized here so I would suggest both, He would have to pay & get a travel visa to go to the USA from the Dominican, then she would get citizenship through the Dominican consulate because they are married and vice versa but always ask all the particulars from the American & Dominican consulate look them up locally most in larger cities like New York , LA California, etc. Good luck & make sure it’s not a scammer because there are a lot of men & women that find Americans to get money & citizenship from.

@@CaribbeanE C\She can apply for a Fiancee visa, it takes about 6-8 months. When he arrive in the USA, they have to get married in 3 months. Then he can pick up his visa in the US.

You guys have a hot water heater in your apartment or is that provided by your building? There’s a lot of people under the impression that there’s no hot water in any DR homes. Even in the eighties while growing up there in the capital we had hot water in our apartment and we weren’t rich. I know it’s not everyone but I know it’s not that uncommon. Thank you for your videos

[@CaribbeanE]

Every home we’ve been in has a hot water heater either a switch you turn on when needed or like ours that cane in our apartment is like the states always on .

[@dariobigord2826]

Greetings Mr and Mrs...hope y'all doing well. Has the cost of rental changes because of lack of tourists? Or do you predict it will change?

[@CaribbeanE]

I don’t think rental prices will change that drastically but we will see. The rentals are for locals as well so here in Santiago should see stability in prices in the North that may be different
