Sounds high to me unless there's something with the property/title that complicates issues. The attorneys I used had a range of 0.1% to 1.5% of gross purchase price. Legal fees for me fell about midway & were disclosed up front.

Check with Guzman Ariza in Sosua if you haven't already. Guzman Ariza Law Firm in the Dominican Republic

Go with Fabio. Speak to Julio in the Sosa/Cabarete office.

Agreed on both counts. 2% is very high. Go with Guzman Ariza, they are by far the best in real estate on the north coast.
