Short sale shortsightedness
[QUOTE=Questner;3031626]Dominicans can do whatever they like in their country including not following their own laws. If they don't want to use P4P as a natural economic advantage, let it be. However, they successfully killed all entertainment in the town, including Dominican venues. Somehow, turning Sos. Into a place for Dominicans has never crossed their minds. Discos, karaoke place, dance to rent. Everything is gone. They have even uprooted the natural Almendros trees and planted palms trees instead. They will never ever be able to compete with P Cana and area, can't supply water, electricity can't offer proper food catering, can't solve airport issues and much more. The most puzzling thing is P4P has nothing to do with their wish to unload some land properties.[/QUOTE]Bingo. The infrastructure can't handle the housing that's there now and they want to add several more?
That's what this is all about Land speculation. Even in PC Youtuber Jamie Gruber bought a one bedroom condo in a flood zone in PC not for rent he admits that he won't make much for that but so they land can be bought by a developer. Theyre making these plays Island wide Again Sosua is and was an agricultural area that Trijullo wanted to use to whiten up the country but not necessarily with those whites so he put them in a remote corner. That remote corner is Sosua. Sex tourism or not there's never going to be a Punta Cana north and even Punta Cana took more than twenty years to become what it is.
If I had a half million sitting around for a vacation or retirement villa Sosua is not the worst place in the world but for the money you could probably get something similar in the Bahamas.
I'll bet you could get something cheaper in Jamaica. You could say that even Montego Bay lacks amenities but so does Sosua.
I don't know who did it but whoever did it was a marketing genius to turn a town that is less interesting than San Christobal into a global fleshpot.
Rey was not deported so even the local news can be trusted about as much as you can count on Edemorte. But a crime wave is on the rise.
Good Luck Sosua.
Hope this Helps.
Trip.
