Where it is, and daily life nearby

Straight-line distances measured from OpenStreetMap — not drive times. OSM's coverage of shops and clinics here is uneven: "not mapped" means nobody has mapped one, not that none exists. Shops, schools and clinics are being measured for this area next. See the Bavaro area guide.

CONFOTUR — stated by the seller, not verified by us

The listing claims this property carries CONFOTUR. If that holds for your unit, its annual IPI of $687 drops to zero — worth about +0.3 points of net yield, and you would not pay the 3% transfer tax at closing either.

“Aplican beneficios de Ley CONFOTUR River Island es un proyecto residencial diseñado para conectar tu estilo de vida con la naturaleza.”

We have not verified this. CONFOTUR is granted per project by resolution and can be confirmed with MITUR or by asking the developer for the resolution number. The yield above still charges full IPI, so it is the conservative figure — this is upside you have to check, not a discount we have applied.
