Become an Expat in the Dominican Republic as an Army Veteran!

us veterans relocating to the dominican republic I Casa Linda Quality Communities
Reading Time: 2 minutes

Are you a US Army veteran looking for a change of pace? Would you like to retire in style and comfort while having all your medical and financial needs looked after? You can get all that and more by retiring to Cabarete, Dominican Republic!

The Dominican Republic offers many resources for retired army veteran expats so they can enjoy their well-earned free time in our idyllic Caribbean setting. Keep reading to learn if transitioning to island living is the right retirement plan for you!

Why Should You Relocate to the Dominican Republic?

Moving to the Dominican Republic offers more than sunny skies and sandy beaches- it provides a high quality of life at a much lower cost than many veterans can find in the US. The DR welcomes US and Canadian expats with open arms and, therefore, offers many resources and benefits for former military members who choose to relocate.

Benefits and Services for Veterans in the DR

US Army veterans qualify for a number of different services and healthcare benefits in the DR that can allow them to retire in good health and peace of mind. The US Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) office allows US vets to keep the benefits and services earned through their military service when they move abroad. These benefits are payable regardless of where they settle and include resources like disability compensation, pension, health care, and insurance.

These benefits can be used in local DR hospitals and medical clinics, where vets will receive quality care and personal attention. Local clinics like MedVets (located in Puerto Plata) provide services such as group therapy, chiropractic treatments, massage, mental health services, 24/7 pharmacy, traumatic brain injury care, and more.

Affordable Cost of Living

One of the major draws to the Dominican Republic is the lower cost of living compared to the United States. Retired veterans can enjoy life in the lap of luxury while living off a modest pension and personal savings. Groceries, entertainment, recreation, and other high-priced costs can be enjoyed with regularity and indulgence in the DR. Say goodbye to expensive fruits and vegetables—you can enjoy fresh, local produce at half the price in the US!

Sound Real Estate Investment Opportunities

The DR government encourages investment from North American citizens, and what better way to invest your military pension than in a beautiful island villa? Dominican Republic real estate can be found for over half the price of a house or condo in the United States- at Casa Linda, our luxury villas start as low as $229,000 USD. The process to purchase property in the DR is very similar to the US, and there are no restrictions to ensure a smooth experience for the buyer.

Why Partner with Casa Linda

Are you convinced to take the leap and move to the DR? Make it happen with Casa Linda! Our luxury private villas are the ideal location for US veterans to retire. Our closed community of fellow ex-pats and former military members will provide plenty of opportunities to socialize and gain information about local veteran resources and help centers. Our villas are also fully customizable and can be tweaked to accommodate older adults with limited mobility and other adjustments.

Contact us today to learn more about our floor plans, customization options, and the community life at Casa Linda. We look forward to helping you retire in style!
