For nearly a decade, Select Caribbean Properties has specialized in luxury real estate offerings in the Dominican Republic. With links to other agencies spread throughout the Caribbean, Europe and North America, this small but dynamic firm lists fine homes and building lots in the better communities of the north coast as well as large development parcels, farms and high-end commercial properties. Select Caribbean brokers will show the discriminating client properties that represent current as well as lasting value. In an environment of robust growth here in the Dominican Republic, some projects are thrown together quickly, without regard for long-term value. Select Caribbean does not list these, preferring only those properties which, as a result of their many years' research and experience, prove to be stable and secure. Though there are dozens of real estate agencies in the Dominican Republic, many have existed for only a year or two. Select Caribbean's two principals have over 30 years' combined experience living in the Dominican Republic, and as a result, know the realities of life there. Intimate knowledge of real estate laws, strong relationships with good real estate attorneys and considerable experience building, renovating and, finally, selling real estate ensure the prospective investor of a professional, profitable relationship with positive results that will stand the test of time.
Their customers are more than customers, they become friends. Living in the Dominican Republic is not only a dream, it can be reality.
Sabine A Mertes-Urbahn first came to the Dominican Republic on vacation in 1993. The country and its people appealed to her and she decided to spend a short while here in order to improve her Spanish. Sabine speaks 5 languages, having a Masters Degree in language from University Trier in Germany. It dawned on Sabine that she had found her new home in the Caribbean and after a few years learning the ropes, she started Select Caribbean Properties with a partner in 2001. She concentrated on the best, the most "select", listings available. Her understanding of all aspects of the local real estate business on the north coast of the DR is extensive, and she has listed and sold many fine properties in the years since.
