Moving to Cabrera

Hello guys,
My wife, two dogs and I are moving to Cabrera in a couple months, how much should we expect to pay for a house in a safe place, two bedrooms and a little garden for our dogs? Thanks a lot!!

Again welcome.  There are some members here from that area and hopefully they can provide you with some answers on actual costs.

However I would suspect your rent in a secure neighborhood for a 2 bedroom house will run in the $1000 a month range.

Wow, that much... I will be living in a 2,500 budget...

You should be fine with that salary

1,000 dollars?

Hi!  We just bought a house in Cabrera and are in the process of getting to know the areas.  If you haven't talked to Sebastian at DRcoastalproperties.com, I would recommend him...he knows the market and the area...and I think can help you out with finding a good area and maybe a rental. 

What brought you to Cabrera?  We're so jealous that you get to make the move!  We can only spend vacations there...*sigh*

You can find a nice 2 bedroom house here for around $300 a month

Arielah is correct.  3 t0 400 will get you a good house in cabrera. I have friends there , they can assist you also. Tom Duncan is on this site,message him. I live in Sosua & Cabrera would be my second choice.  Welcome to the island.

Guys this is an old thread.

Old but maybe still relevant

Maybe. Just pointing out to them as it appears they didnt realize.   :D

I'm curious why Cabrera is your second choice as well as why you chose Sosua.  Glad this posted was re-activated.  I'm still a couple of years from retiring (unless events fast track that), but interested in what people that have lived there think.

Been to Sosua/Cabarete several times and hope to spend some time in and around Cabrera soon.
