      What are you comparing it to? Have you built a house in the U.S.?

      Canada has the same fees. They fall under "development fees". The only fee that was new to me was paying the College of Architects for the plans.

    Hi Leah , great to see that you completed your project and that you got the final product you expected. You have been a great inspiration for those who want to tackle a build in DR and your attention to detail and organization was second to none. I will be staying across the road from you on our arrival next month and look forward to seeing your project.
    Saludos

    Hey Leah, thanks for the informative video. I am from the US but have lived in the DR for five years and am hoping to make my budget work to build a small home
    I watched almost all of your video a few days ago and finished the last couple of minutes today, but i can't recall if you said the price per m2 included mano de obra as well, or not... I will try to rewatch it soon to see if you mentioned it (which I'm sure you did as you are quite thorough) but if you reply to this I would be super grateful!
    Have a beautiful day and thanks for the transparency!

    And how much additional would it be if you wanted to install air conditioning units in the bedrooms?

      Canadian here ! Bought property in the DR 2 years ago ! Big headache so far ! Most of the stuff / materials are a lot more expensive than US or Canada! Also trying to sell your property can take years if you are lucky!
