MI CONUCO VILLAS AT BAVARO BEACH
The Dominican Republic and specifically the Bavaro/Punta Cana area are enjoying an unparalleled boom in the real estate market. The regions optimum lifestyle potential is recognized by international investors and developers alike.
Located on the eastern shore of the Dominican Republic, a country known for its warm and friendly people. Bavaro lies just 90 miles east of the capital city of Santo Domingo, the oldest city in the New World.
With a keen understanding of the market and a vision towards the future, Vision One Group, LLC. Has focused on beach access communities in the Bavaro area. These communities like Mi Conuco have been carefully designed to provide comfort, space, spectacular views, relaxation, excellent infrastructure, communications and proximity to international airports, security and great investment return.
Today, the East Coast beach strip is one of the best choices for those seeking the perfect beach and R&R (rest and relaxation) vacation. Bill and Hillary Clinton in April 2001 chose Bavaro for their first sojourn after leaving the White House.
Bavaro-Mi Conuco, a private experience created as a primary or secondary residence is for those that demand ultra luxury without the complications of maintenance and servicing. A limited edition for the select few, becoming a sanctuary amidst a world of the best golfing, spa and resort amenities.
Miles of silky-fine white sand, deserted beaches with coconut palms.
This area is made up almost completely of touristic real estate populated mostly by couples or families. Some developments in the area cater to sports-minded people.
The best airport to land at is the Punta Cana International Airport, a 10 to 40 minute drive from Bavaro. This airport offers scheduled service from almost all major destinations in the world.
The second best airport for this destination is the La Romana Airport, which is about 1hour drive away from Bavaro.
Beaches. Cap Cana, Punta Cana, Cabeza de Toro, Bavaro, El Cortecito, Arena Gorda, Macao and Uvero Alto. The beach is the No. 1 attraction in the East Coast area, stretching an amazing 50 kilometers. With few exceptions, most hotels and developments only limit land access and else wise honor Dominican law whereby beaches are public. You can freely stroll the beach strip going from one hotel's beach front to another, especially in the Cortecito, Bavaro and Cabeza de Toro areas. There are public beach entries at El Cortecito and Cabeza de Toro. Macao, to the north, is yet undeveloped, and thus is unrestricted beach access.
The array of water sports options offered right on the beach is amazing: catamaran boat rides, double-decker party boats, restaurant dining at sunset on the sea, parasailing, glass bottom boats for marine life observation, sports fishing, diving, snorkeling, flying boats, speed boats.
Total area: 48,807 square meters which translates to 12.06 acre
OR 12 acre and 292.686 yrd²
The title is owned free and clear.
Loan amount is US $22,000,000
Current as is land value has been appraised by an independent and internationally respected appraiser at US $8,731,800.
Land will be used as collateral.
All permits are in place and construction will commence the moment financing has been secured.
A total of 300 units will be constructed:
>95 Apartments >205 Townhomes
The loan term will be 36 months, this will be the time needed to complete construction of all phases.
Apartments will make up the first phase. After construction of apartments is completed, the town homes will be constructed.
Average apartment price is US $183,000 X 95 = US $17,385,000
Average town home price is US $201,000 X 205 = US $41,205,000
Total revenue from project : US $58,590,000
Without any advertisement or Realtor involvement a stunning 22% of the project has been sold out. That equals 67% of the first phase. This was done only by placing a rather small for sale sign on the property. Once financing is secured the property is expected to sell out within days, just like all other neighboring properties have done so far.
This project is being constructed with only the finest and most experienced professionals being involved.
Please feel free to contact me anytime for more information.

Since George we have fortunately not been touched in any level other than a lot of rain. Thank god. Bavaro especially lies in an area that is inflicted by hurricanes only once every 25 years. Our construction is designed accordingly, knowing that total protection is not possible. But you will not see devastating results here as I see now in the USA. We use block construction here. |

I believe it is still there. My son actually found a real cannon ball snorkeling the other day. It really looked like out of "Pirates of the Caribbean". |

Pedro Martinez is a Dominican baseball player. He is a huge investor on the island, building churches and low income housing for his people.
Manoguayabo, Dominican Republic -- An hour after sunset, Pedro Martinez is walking along the main street of his neighborhood, a group of barefoot children in threadbare clothing following him, moonlight casting a blue glow.
Calle San Miguel, once a treacherous combination of dirt, rocks and potholes, was paved only two years ago. These days, people walk without fear of losing shoes in the mud, although they still have to avoid the garbage in the gutters. Now they easily can make it to the Parroquia Inmaculada Concepcion de Maria, a simple teal church with 17 rows of movable pews.
Martinez was born here 33 years ago, grew up here and still lives on the land where his first home stood. All around him, he sees the world of his childhood transformed. He raises his chest and sighs, proud of what he has accomplished here since he became a major-league pitcher in 1992. He helped pave the road and build the church, and he paid for homes for his family and friends.
On this night, he stops by the school he helped finance. The new three- story yellow building sits in the corner of a field recently bulldozed for his latest construction project.
"We call him our angel," Francisca de la Cruz, who once taught Martinez and is now the new school's director, said. "Without Pedro Martinez, we'd be in lots of trouble."
Baseball fans know Martinez as the Mets' newest stopper, a quirky personality and a merciless pitcher unafraid to aim a fastball under a hitter's chin. He is cliche-free, witty, insightful and, as often as not, controversial.
He once said that the Yankees should wake up Babe Ruth so he could drill him. During a brawl in the 2003 American League Championship Series, Martinez pushed Yankees coach Don Zimmer, then 72, to the ground, solidifying his position as a devil in the eyes of Yankees fans.
But here in his neighborhood, a half-hour drive from downtown Santo Domingo, the Dominican capital, Martinez is no devil. He is more a patron saint.
Few bright lights here
Stores lining the road into town are rickety kiosks painted in pastels, pink, mint green, sea blue and neon. Signs cry out: Salon! (one on nearly every corner); Cervezas el Presidente! (Dominican-made beer); Colmado! (a small bodega).
Trumpet-heavy merengue music is blasting, often trumped, however, by the roar of motorbikes. The scent of gasoline lingers as those motorbikes zip by, sometimes carrying as many as five people. Some are taxis, a short ride costing about 37 cents.
On a lively Sunday, women stroll along Calle San Miguel with their hair in fat curlers. Men play dominoes while stray dogs nap under their tables. Youngsters practice baseball swings in the street.
Many houses have one room and dirt floors, some have no doors or windows. But others stand out. They are newly painted in muted colors and have windows and doors protected by white wrought-iron bars. Some have two stories and marble floors. Those houses carry Martinez's stamp.
"He built my house for me because he found out I was still renting," de la Cruz said, her eyes filling with tears. "And he built at least 30 or 40 other houses for people here. You can say that everything nice here is because of him."
When Martinez was young, everything was different. At 5, he was a featherweight, the fifth of six children born to Pablo Jaime Abreu and Leopoldina Martinez. His father worked odd jobs, his mother washed clothes for wealthier families.
Like most houses in Manoguayabo, theirs was built with palm wood and had dirt floors and a tin roof. Sheets separated the interior into rooms. The family slept on the floor, at least two to a mattress. The young Pedro Martinez -- inexplicably nicknamed Enyo by his older brother Ramon -- had a lot of friends. Elvira Trinidad remembers Martinez being "very bad but very original," once encouraging her to climb high into a mango tree, then laughing because he had put her in a spot where he could see her underwear.
He was a smart one, too
Trinidad said she always thought Martinez would be a doctor; he was that smart. Though he worked as a mechanic as a teenager, baseball was in his blood.
Like nearly every Dominican boy, Martinez's father played the game. His claim to island fame: He could pitch two games in a day.
The youngsters played ball using broomsticks and tree branches for bats and makeshift balls made of fruit, rolled-up socks and the heads of their sisters' dolls.
Eventually, Ramon Martinez signed with the Los Angeles Dodgers and began his 14-year major-league pitching career in 1988. Four years later, Pedro Martinez joined him on the Dodgers. And when Pedro left for the United States, he took his hometown with him.
"The whole village was on my shoulders, and I knew that," Martinez said, lifting his arms to the sky. "So when I went on the mound, I felt like a lion fighting for my food because I wasn't fighting for myself. I was fighting for everyone in Manoguayabo."
Though Martinez left Manoguayabo, he could have chosen to live anywhere, including one of the island's resort towns. He stayed in his hometown and improved it.
NY Time
Soon after signing a $75 million contract with Boston, Martinez began to build here. With help from Ramon, he acquired the land around his family's old home and built residences for his family members.
Then he built the church, used his island-hero influence to persuade the government to pave the main road, and bought the land where the school was raised.
Now nearly all his family members and friends -- hundreds, he says -- live in small houses abutting his property. A security gate separates them from the main road. Florida Marlins second baseman Luis Castillo recently moved into a large house in the ritzy section of Manoguayabo, but Martinez's house is near the end of Calle San Miguel, hidden behind a white concrete block wall topped with barbed wire.
The Martinez abode
When visitors arrive, one of his many workers slides open a hulking green gate to the driveway. Inside are two modest homes. One is a three-bedroom, single-story house where Martinez, who is single, lives alone; the other is a guest house.
Roosters walk the property. A sausage-shaped Doberman pinscher lounges near one of the two small pools. There are lime, hibiscus and mango trees, which Martinez used to climb, ones he hopes to "sit under in a hammock someday when I retire."
The most striking feature of his home is a covered terrace at the edge of a hill. There he holds parties for nearly everyone in the neighborhood, roasting a pig on a spit and serving typical Dominican food such as red beans and rice with meat.
"It's like he never left here," Eduardo Abreu Martinez, a lawyer, who is no relation, said. "During the All-Star break, he was pitching in the street here. No matter how rich he gets, he's still one of us."
Martinez's friends are his bodyguards, chauffeurs and public-relations people. He rewards them with homes, cars and gifts. But one person Martinez trusts is not Dominican: his agent, Fernando Cuza, is of Cuban descent.
"Winning the World Series is low on the things that make me happy," Martinez said. "What I really enjoy is giving back to the people here and giving them hope. I want them to use me now while I have this fame."
He grows quiet and looks at the sky. "At my mom's house on the farm, it gets so dark, you look at the stars and you feel like you can just reach out and grab them," he said. "I love her so much and I love this place so much, it hurts. I stay here because I need to find myself again after playing in the States. Here, it's me talking. It's my soul talking."
"I don't want to ever forget where I came from," he said.
No one around here is going to forget, either.

| Thank you for the beautiful story about Mr. Martinez. I did hear stories like that about Samy Sosa as well. He also comes from an extremely humble upbringing. |

| One more thing to add to this, Baseball here is pretty much the only sport and it is like religion. I thought Germans were fanatic with soccer, but these folks here just live for baseball. I always know when there is a game on, because traffic is great and the watering holes are packed. |

Now, this I can appreciate. A sense of humor and you hitting a raw nerve. I miss Tony so very much.....
(by the way, does anyone know of a website where I can watch Soprano episodes. I left the USA in 2004, imagine how much I missed. I heard through the grapevine that Christophers girl got shot by little Steve, say it ain't so!) |

She did , but they actually never showed her being shot just Stevie getting out of the car and her crawling into the Pinelands , it even looked like he was winded , so it let room for contemplation that he could have missed his shot and she gets away and turns herself into the Feds |
