HOUSE TOUR IN PUERTO PLATA, DOMINICAN REPUBLIC🇩🇴 cost of living

[@MillsRepDom]

As always, thanks for watching! I loveee Jayde's house and she got it for a great price, just minutes from the beach. Would you live in Puerto Plata? I'd love to hear your thoughts below✨

[@iljafritzler6823]

definitely, love puerto plata

[@jaclynstrader7694]

Hi Mills! My fiance and I are planning on moving to the DR in a few months, Cabarete area specifically. We plan on staying for 1-2 years, depends on how it goes. Can you speak to the "tourist card"- I've watched several of your videos & I know you mentioned if you don't go the Residency route, that you will just be charged extra money when you leave the country depending on how long you overstayed- does that still ring true? I hope so! Also, can you lmk of certain item you would recommend on bringing that you just cant find in the DR? Anything would help as we start to prepare for this new chapter! Muchas gracias!

[@stephanie-oh6eh]

Me and my husband recently bought an apartment right by the beach in Puerto Plata. I love the north coast!

[@laylannaimaylawells661]

Can you please please please give me info of those apts or that area it looks sooo relaxing i am so very interested with moving to DR very very soon but i am having trouble with contacting a reliable and safe realtor within DR. Thank you so much for sharing

[@MillsRepDom]

@@laylannaimaylawells661 yes! CAn you message me on ig? @rebeccamillsss

i love these. as someone who can only dream right now about moving to 🇩🇴, seeing how other people are currently doing it makes me happy lol 🤍

Learn Trading. You can trade off of your computer or phone anywhere in the world as long as you have a good internet connection.

[@dontbanmebrodontbanme5403]

I'm in the same boat. Financially, my wife and I are in a very good place, but we still have to wait until we can touch our retirement money. In the meantime, I watch videos like these! 😂😂

[@easyrawlins2392]

Thank you for the video. I am looking to move to the dominican republic

[@douglasanderson5516]

$345 a month for a 2 br 3 bathroom HOUSE in Toro Alta with a garage and someone tried to tell me that $300 for a 1br apartment in Puerto Plata might not be realistic.

[@nataliemata1770]

Yes someone told me $600 for a 2 bedroom was not realistic lol

[@ariefraiser140]

And it's not like it's an all Dominican neighborhood. They said there's a lot of expats around. Usually in neighborhoods with a lot of expats the price is higher. She did say she got a deal at $345/month but even without the deal it would have been $434/month. Crazy. That's how much I pay in HOA fee and Property taxes for my townhouse in the DC area.

[@gamechangers66]

How do you find renewal properties in DR. I’m only finding air bnb

[@alphacran7608]

Not a bad price

[@anonymous-od8do]

Great video!!

[@BIGJ-kb3vc]

You guy’s have a lovely home ! And what a great deal on the monthly rent. 👍🏾👍🏾

[@jacksaint5]

A very helpful video. Thanks for sharing and congrats to your friend Jade. Blessings to you two

[@MillsRepDom]

Thank you!!

[@anthonygarzione6625]

the vibe I get from this gal is she is supremely pampered and looked after by others and my bet is if she did start to sweat, or deal with power disruptions, she will throw temper tantrums until she got all these people looking out for her to fix it.

[@samuelrobinson7893]

Great video and content! I can't believe how inexpensive it is there for a comfortable lifestyle wow..beautiful home and congrats to you both.

The neighbourhood looks so pretty and safe! It was super interesting and informative!

Cannot wait to watch other videos on Jade’s remote work and how it goes with obtaining the consular report of birth abroad!

[@dovygoodguy1296]

You mean that all your water supply is from a truck delivery for the tank? What about hot water? Can you recommend ( not resort hotels) quiet hotels in the Puerto Plata area near stores and restaurants for people without a car who want a quiet visit?

[@tmc1373]

I love this house and neighborhood. The lady is so cute. She even looks Dominicana! Can you please make a video with a house with a little yard for having a garden?

[@lazarocedeno5270]

Thanks dear for sharing your beautiful life. Good luck with your new baby. Ha a great life.

Water has to be clean too, otherwise how people do cooking ? Top water not drinkable at all

[@empowercarole11]

Very useful and valuable video. Lovely home! Thank you so much for including pricing too. I’m visiting the island in January, and this will give me a sense of the living standards in Puerto Plata. 🌹

I am 100% making this move.

[@Nutrition2Nourish1]

Wow. This video was so helpful. Thank you Mills

[@MillsRepDom]

I’m glad you liked it!❤️

[@katwillny]

Great video. Mills you are the best. This is actually a great concept, having other expats give a breakdown of the life in DR as well as cost of living. One thing to keep in mind when it comes to electricity, the cost goes up dramatically as you use more kilowats. so keep an eye on your kilowatt hours per month.

[@MillsRepDom]

thanks so much! i figure it is more interesting to see a variety of expat experiences rather than just mine lol/ Good point about the kilowatts!!

[@stephanie-oh6eh]

I got married at a villa in Torre Alta in January of 2021. Beautiful neighborhood! Thanks for sharing 🙂.

[@MillsRepDom]

I am very interested in buying a house in DR. I will be moving to DR full time once my Son is 18. It does not have to be a tourist town. Something affordable.

[@codigodominicano]

Thanks for the video. How’s the high speed internet in this area?

[@MillsRepDom]

it’s okay! if you upgrade and get a backup line then it’s fine. Jayde said she rarely lost internet.

[@yosmelyvillafana5638]

Mom and dad were born there so I’m Dominican to but I was born in the United States but yeah not every place that looks dangerous is dangerous just some thing just want to put down

[@allenbay4974]

I love it! very nice video and exactly what I am searching for (Puerto plata). do you guys know if there is any Association/ group/Expat club can help new people want to move to DR?

[@MillsRepDom]

there is a facebook group called expats living in the dominican republic where you can ask questions, deff some hostile people in there though lol. i also do consults if you need help!

[@FragrantFindings]

My daughter and I are hoping to relocate to the Dominican republic in December. Due to Covid I am now a permanent remote worker and no longer have to go into an office. I was born in La Vega Dominican republic but live in the States. Our moving to that area solely depends on the strength of the internet. I’ve heard the capital has the best internet, including fiber. But I’m a Cibaeña at heart. Is the internet in Puerto Plata or Cabarete reliable? Reliable enough for zoom calls, interfacing with networks in the States etc.?

[@MillsRepDom]

yes it is!! you can always get a backup connection as well, a generator in case it goes out, and a portable hotspot! i used to do lots of calls with the US and was fine.

[@FragrantFindings]

@@MillsRepDom thank you so much!

Love your videos! My husband and I actually moved to the DR in January. We are still looking for a good place to rent. I’ve heard of Torre Alta but haven’t been to the neighborhood yet. Would your friend Jade be willing to give us her listing agents info so we can rent a place there? We are staying in Cabarete now. Keep up these helpful videos.

[@MillsRepDom]

Definitely we can do that!!

[@motherblue2208]

Great video! Listening to the experiences of other expats is so important to me. I do want to hear more about her remote work and the decision to give birth there. Will the baby have American citizenship because of the mom...or dual citizenships?

Me too!! I love seeing other experiences. Baby will probably have dual, they’ll need to apply based on both parents! what would you like to know about the remote work?

So I’m still waiting on a few things but still leaving. Friends are asking about credit and I know my US credit won’t go with me so how does it work there? Can you show us something on transportation since I still don’t know if I wanna take my car full time?

[@Letstalkaboutit809]

Hey, I don’t live in the DR but my family are from there and if you have credit in the US it helps a lot. The only thing is that in order to get a bank account in the DR it is very helpful to be able to get residency and the ID from there.

[@MillsRepDom]

Yes good idea!! You can use your US credit card as well!

[@emma22cutee1]

Beautiful home. Can I ask you how were you able to work remotely? I currently work a remote job here in the states and will like to move to DR but can't find any remote jobs. Any info would be greatly appreciated. 😊

Thanks! I am self employed and have my own clients. When I was in DR I would just tell them I lived there. In Jaydes case she got approval from her US employer to work remotely from the DR!
