ECIJA offers a Real Estate and Urban Planning practice with international recognition from Chambers and Partners and Legal 500, advising private equity funds, institutional investors, developers, contractors and hotel groups on real estate developments, asset transactions and project structuring. In the Dominican Republic, this experience is particularly relevant given the weight of the tourism and real estate sectors in the economy, with major developments in hubs such as Punta Cana, Bávaro and Santo Domingo.
The team assists local and international clients with the acquisition and sale of assets, negotiation of construction and lease agreements, structuring of projects under the tourism incentive regime of Law 158-01 (CONFOTUR), and title registration processes before the Registro de Títulos, as well as compliance with applicable urban planning and environmental regulations.
The practice relies on a holistic approach that integrates tax, environmental, labour and financial regulatory advice, enabling ECIJA to provide comprehensive support on complex real estate transactions, including foreign investment in the residential, commercial and tourism sectors. This combination of local knowledge and international standards makes the firm a relevant partner for those investing in the growing Dominican real estate market
