Below, we’ll discuss a few reasons why you should own a house in your go-to travel destination, and how regular visitors of the Dominican Republic can find the ultimate vacation home with Casa Linda. Keep reading to learn more about our luxury Cabarete real estate options.

No More Hotel or Resort Hunting

Travelling is fun, but it also requires a lot of planning to ensure a smooth trip, from booking flights to securing your passport to finding a hotel within your price range. Even when you book well ahead of time, finding an available hotel or resort during peak travel seasons can be hard.

Buying a vacation home can remove a major stress point when handling the logistical side of your vacation. It can also give you more flexibility when you travel, allowing you to make spontaneous or last-minute trips without settling for subpar accommodations or spending beyond your budget.

Create a Home Away from Home

One of the major draws to buying a vacation home is the chance to create a sanctuary from your everyday life that feelslike you. Vacationing in a familiar space can help you feel more relaxed, relieve stress, and allow you to enjoy your time off even more.

Design and decorate the living space according to your personal style. Keep a vacation wardrobe in your bedroom so you don’t have to pack or haul luggage through the airport. Stock up your kitchen pantry with all your go-to non-perishable snacks. When you pull up to your vacation house, it will feel like a real homecoming!

Make Extra Income Via Rental Hosting

Unfortunately, you can’t vacation all year-round, so what do you do with the house when you’re not using it? Rather than letting it sit empty to gather dust, use it as a secondary source of income and list it on rental hosting platforms! Turning your vacation house into an Airbnb can help you cover the expenses of owning and maintaining your second property, giving you a larger income reservoir and more return on your investment.

If you buy a vacation home in a gated community like Casa Linda, you won’t even have to worry about the maintenance or upkeep between stays. Our villa management team will handle your housekeeping, landscaping, and maintenance tasks for you!

Open the Door for Extended Stays

Have you ever considered moving abroad? With a vacation home in a country like the Dominican Republic, you can always extend your stay beyond a two-week holiday. Whether you decide to get a 6-month tourist visa or move permanently, house hunting is one major task you’ll be able to cross off your to-do list!

Many Casa Linda homeowners have obtained residency, adjusted to local customs, and smoothly transitioned into the DR’s way of life. If you want to try to live in a foreign country down the road, a community of fellow expatriates is a great place to start!

Is a Vacation Home Right for You? Points to Consider

Owning a vacation home has many positive aspects, but before you can get the ball rolling, make sure this type of investment is right for you.

Ask yourself: “Can I afford a second mortgage? Will I visit often enough to make the purchase worthwhile? Do I qualify for second home financing options?”

If you aren’t ready to take on the full scope of ownership by yourself, consider an alternative like fractional ownership. Our co-ownership program at Casa Linda provides buyers with shares in the company in exchange for partial titled ownership of five townhouses.

Each owner is given a few weeks of allotted vacation time per year, allowing you to reap the benefits of a vacation home without shouldering the full weight of responsibility (you can learn more about this program here).

Whether you decide to buy your own vacation home or share the benefits with other owners, our team at Casa Linda will help you navigate the process and find a luxury vacation home that suits your needs and budget.
