Our company philosophy is focused on establishing the mediation of business on a legally impeccable basis. This is especially crucial in the real estate and land sector in the Dominican Republic, where an unblemished (title) land registry entry and a recognized survey of plot numbers (Deslinde) are required.

However, this is not always guaranteed in the Samana region, which is why we have partnered with Mr. Fredy Alcala, a multilingual lawyer specializing in real estate law. Prior to the mediation of any property, he meticulously examines all necessary documents and can effectively address any potential issues that may arise. We highly recommend involving Mr. Alcala from the beginning of the buying process to ensure a reliable and always correct partner for your business needs.

Process of Title and Deslinde explained.

The process of titling and boundary delimitation involves marking the boundaries of a property and registering it in the land registry. The main goal of the boundary delimitation process is to determine the exact boundaries of a property and resolve any disputes related to the boundaries.

This is done to ensure that the ownership of the property is clear and potential conflicts between neighbors or other parties are avoided. The boundary delimitation process starts with an application to the land registry, which is responsible for registering all real estate transactions in the country. The application must include a description of the property, including location, size, and relevant details about the property's history.

Once the application has been submitted, a surveyor is appointed to conduct a physical survey of the property. The surveyor inspects the property, takes measurements, and creates a map that clearly defines the boundaries of the property. After the survey is completed, a notice is published in a local newspaper to inform all interested parties that the boundary delimitation process is underway.

Any party wishing to contest the boundaries of the property must do so within a certain period of time. If there are no disputes, the land registry will approve the survey and issue a title deed. If there are disputes, the case can be referred to a court for resolution. It is important to note that the boundary delimitation process is important not only for legal reasons but also for economic reasons. In the Dominican Republic, the value of a property is often determined by the title and clarity of its boundaries. Therefore, obtaining a clear title through the boundary delimitation process can significantly increase the value of a property.

In summary, the boundary delimitation process is a crucial process for anyone who wants to buy or sell real estate in the Dominican Republic. It ensures that the boundaries of a property are clearly defined and disputes are resolved in a timely and efficient manner. We would be happy to provide you with relevant contacts.
